FAQs

What is the coverage of a 150ml can?

A 150ml can of Hycote Double Acrylic paint provides the same coverage as a conventional 300ml aerosol can.

How long does the paint take to dry?

The paint is fast-drying. Specific drying times will vary based on temperature, humidity, and application thickness, but generally, recoat times are around 15-30 minutes.

Can I use this paint on plastic?

This paint is designed for primed surfaces and may be compatible with certain plastics. It is recommended to use a specific plastic primer first and test on an inconspicuous area.

What is the finish of the metallic paint?

The paint provides a metallic finish. The clear lacquer adds a high gloss protective layer over the metallic paint.

How do I clean the spray nozzle after use?

After use, turn the can upside down and spray for a few seconds until clear gas emerges. This prevents the nozzle from clogging.

Is the color a perfect match for specific car models?

The paint is matched to 293 specific manufacturers and models, offering a high degree of accuracy. However, variations in original paint condition and application can affect the final appearance.

What is the shelf life of the product?

When stored correctly in a cool, dry place, the spray paint generally has a shelf life of several years. Check the can for any specific batch information.

Troubleshooting

Uneven spray pattern or splattering

Shake the can more vigorously. Ensure the nozzle is not blocked; clean if necessary by following storage instructions. Apply in thinner coats.

Paint runs or drips

Apply in thinner coats from the recommended distance. Avoid applying too much paint at once. Ensure the surface is not overly porous or absorbent.

Poor adhesion or peeling

Ensure the surface was properly prepared (clean, dry, free of contaminants) and primed. Check for compatibility with existing finishes.

Aerosol fails to spray

Ensure the nozzle is clear. Check if the mixing ball is free to move by shaking vigorously. If the can is empty, it will not spray.
