FAQs

How do I prepare the surface for touch-up paint?

The surface must be clean, dry, and free from contaminants such as grease, wax, or dirt. For best results, lightly abrade the area to be painted if it is smooth or glossy.

How long does the paint take to dry?

Hycote Touch Up Colour Brush paints are fast-drying. While drying times can vary based on temperature and humidity, typically it will be touch-dry within minutes and fully hardened within a few hours.

Can I use this paint on plastic bumpers?

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

What is the best way to store the paint after use?

Keep the cap on tightly to ensure an airtight seal. Store the can in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources.

How many coats should I apply?

It is generally recommended to apply thin, even coats. Allow each coat to dry sufficiently before applying the next to achieve the best finish and avoid runs or drips.

Is this paint suitable for large areas?

This product is specifically designed for small touch-ups like scratches and stone chips. For larger areas, a spray can or professional application may be more appropriate.

What does 'colour matched' mean?

It means the paint's colour has been precisely analyzed and formulated by Hycote's technical team to replicate the original manufacturer's paint code for specific vehicle models.

Troubleshooting

Paint not dispensing or brush is dry

Ensure the can was shaken properly and sufficiently. Check if the nozzle is blocked; if so, clean with a suitable solvent. If the paint has dried in the brush, it may need to be replaced.

Poor adhesion or paint peeling

The surface may not have been adequately prepared. Ensure it was clean, dry, and free from contaminants like oil or wax. Light abrasion of the repair area before application can improve adhesion.

Uneven finish or visible brush strokes

Apply thin, even coats rather than one thick layer. Allow each coat to dry slightly before applying the next. Practice on a scrap surface to get a feel for the brush and paint consistency.

Colour mismatch

Verify you have the correct product code for your vehicle's paint. Ensure the paint has been thoroughly mixed. Note that minor variations can occur due to age and fading of the original paintwork.
