FAQs
What size is this touch-up paint?

How do I ensure the colour match is correct?

How should I store the touch-up paint?

Troubleshooting
Paint not dispensing from brush
Ensure the container has been shaken thoroughly for at least two minutes. Check if the brush is clogged; if so, carefully clean it.
Uneven finish after application
Apply multiple thin coats rather than one thick coat. Allow each coat to dry before applying the next. Ensure the surface was properly prepared and free of debris.
Color does not match vehicle exactly
Double-check the vehicle's paint code to ensure you have selected the correct Hycote colour. Minor variations can occur due to the age and condition of the original paint.
Paint chipping or peeling after drying
Ensure the surface was clean and dry before application. Surface preparation is crucial. For optimal adhesion, consider using a compatible primer before applying the touch-up paint.
