Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can I use this primer indoors?

No, this product should only be used outdoors or in well-ventilated areas due to the nature of the aerosol formulation.

How long do I wait before painting over the primer?

You can apply topcoats after the primer has fully hardened, which takes 24 hours.

Does this work on all types of plastic?

It is intended for rigid plastics. It may not adhere well to flexible or 'oily' plastics like polyethylene.

Do I need to sand the surface before using the primer?

While it provides good adhesion, a light scuff-sand of the surface beforehand helps ensure the best possible bond.

What is the recommended temperature for application?

The product performs best when applied in temperatures between 15 and 25 degrees Celsius.

Can I use this on a rusted metal surface?

You should remove loose rust and contaminants first. While it provides a base, it is not a rust-inhibitor and should be used over treated or cleaned metal.

Troubleshooting

The spray nozzle is blocked

Invert the can and spray for several seconds to clear the valve, or remove the nozzle and soak it in a solvent cleaner.

The primer is running or dripping

You are applying too much material at once. Reduce the spray pressure or increase the distance from the surface, and always apply in thinner coats.

The finish looks rough after drying

Lightly sand the surface with a fine-grit sandpaper between coats to achieve a smooth finish before applying your final paint.

Pros and Cons

  • Excellent at hiding minor surface irregularities
  • Provides a strong, professional bond for topcoats
  • Easy to use aerosol format
  • Compatible with a wide range of common household materials

Cons

  • Requires high levels of ventilation during use
  • Needs 24 hours to reach maximum hardness

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before starting, ensure the target surface is thoroughly cleaned and free of grease, dust, or flaking paint. Shake the aerosol can vigorously for at least two minutes to ensure the propellant and filler are properly mixed. Maintain a consistent distance of 15-25cm from the surface during application. After each use, it is critical to turn the can upside down and press the nozzle for a few seconds to clear any residue; this prevents the internal tube from clogging. Always work in an area with a temperature between 15-25 degrees Celsius to ensure the primer cures correctly.
