FAQs

What surfaces can I use this paint on?

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

How many coats should I apply?

Apply multiple thin coats. Allow each coat to dry before applying the next. The number of coats will depend on the surface and desired coverage.

How long does it take for the paint to dry?

The paint is fast-drying, but drying times can vary based on temperature and humidity. Generally, it will be touch-dry in a few minutes, and fully dry within an hour or so.

Do I need to use a primer?

Using a primer is recommended, especially on bare metal or plastic surfaces, to improve adhesion and durability.

What is the shelf life of the paint?

When stored correctly, the paint can have a shelf life of several years. Ensure it is stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

How do I clean the nozzle?

After use, invert the can and spray for a few seconds to clear the nozzle. If it clogs, try soaking the nozzle in a solvent or replacing it.

Is this paint resistant to gasoline?

The paint provides good resistance to a variety of environmental factors, but it's not explicitly designed for direct, prolonged contact with gasoline. If this is a concern, consult a professional.

Troubleshooting

Paint is running or dripping.

Apply thinner coats and ensure the can is held at the correct distance from the surface.

Color mismatch.

Ensure the correct paint code (PQ for Race Red) has been used and apply in even coats.

Nozzle clogging.

Clean the nozzle after each use. If clogged, try soaking the nozzle in a solvent or replacing it.
