FAQs

How do I prepare the surface before applying the paint?

Clean the area thoroughly with a degreaser, then dry it completely. Lightly sanding the damaged area can improve adhesion.

How long does the paint take to dry?

The paint is fast drying. However, drying times can vary depending on temperature and humidity. It is typically touch-dry within 20-30 minutes and fully cured within a few hours.

Can I use this paint on different materials besides car bodies?

Yes, this paint is suitable for use on metals, plastics, wood, and ceramics.

What is the best way to apply the paint for a smooth finish?

Apply thin, even coats using the brush. Avoid applying too much paint at once. Multiple thin coats are better than one thick coat for a smoother finish.

How should I store the touch-up paint?

Store the container upright in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and sources of ignition. Ensure the cap is tightly sealed after use.

Will this paint fade over time?

The paint is designed to have excellent resistance to sunlight and fading, helping to maintain its colour integrity.

What does 'OEM finish compatible' mean?

It means the paint is designed to be compatible with the original paint finishes applied by vehicle manufacturers.

Troubleshooting

Paint does not dispense or clog brush

Shake the can more vigorously for longer. Ensure the brush is clean and free of dried paint. If clogged, try cleaning the brush with a suitable solvent.

Poor adhesion or peeling paint

Ensure the surface was thoroughly cleaned and dried before application. Degrease the area if necessary. For best results, ensure the surface is lightly abraded.

Colour does not match perfectly

Confirm the exact vehicle manufacturer, model, and year to ensure you have the correct paint code. Colour perception can vary, and some variations may occur. Allow the paint to fully cure before final assessment.

Paint remains tacky after application

Ensure application occurred in ideal conditions (not too humid or cold). The paint may require longer to dry in adverse conditions. Avoid touching the area until fully cured. If humidity is high, consider a thin second coat rather than a thick one.
