FAQs

What surfaces can I use this paint on?

Hycote Bodyshop Aluminium Coat Spray Paint is suitable for use on ceramics, wood, metals, and plastics. It is also suitable for all automotive body panels.

Do I need to prime the surface?

For best results, it is recommended to use a suitable primer, especially on bare metal or plastic. Hycote Bodyshop Acrylic Primers are recommended.

How do I prepare the surface before painting?

The surface should be clean, dry, and free from loose paint, mould, mildew, wax, or oil. Clean thoroughly with white spirit if wax has been used.

How many coats should I apply?

Apply multiple thin coats rather than one thick coat. This will help prevent runs and ensure even coverage. Allow each coat to dry before applying the next one.

What should I do if the nozzle clogs?

Invert the can and spray until only propellant comes out. If the nozzle remains clogged, clean it with a solvent.

Is this paint resistant to UV light?

Yes, this paint is resistant to sunlight and color fade.

Can I use this paint on plastics?

Troubleshooting

Paint is running or dripping.

Apply thinner coats and ensure you're holding the can the correct distance from the surface. Avoid applying too much paint in one go.

Nozzle is clogged.

Invert the can and spray until only propellant comes out. Clean the nozzle with a solvent if necessary.

Poor coverage.

Ensure the surface is properly prepared. Apply multiple thin coats, allowing each coat to dry before applying the next.

Paint doesn't adhere to the surface.

Make sure the surface is clean and primed correctly, if required. Check compatibility with existing primers.
