FAQs

Can I use this on soft plastics?

This primer is specifically designed for rigid plastics. Results on flexible, soft plastics may vary and are not recommended.

What temperature should I apply this in?

For best results, apply in temperatures between 15C and 25C.

How long should I wait between coats?

Allow 15-20 minutes between each thin coat for proper setting.

Can I use this in direct sunlight?

No, you should not use this product in direct sunlight as it can interfere with the curing process.

Is this primer paintable?

Yes, this is designed to be a base coat that provides a high-quality surface for overcoating.

How long does it take to fully harden?

The primer requires 24 hours to fully harden after the final coat is applied.

Troubleshooting

Spray nozzle is clogged

Invert the can and spray for a few seconds; if it remains blocked, wipe the nozzle with a cloth or mineral spirit.

Surface feels tacky after 24 hours

Ensure application was done within the 15C-25C temperature range; higher humidity or colder temperatures can delay curing time.

Poor adhesion to the plastic

The plastic was likely not cleaned well enough. Ensure all grease and mold release agents are removed before re-applying.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before starting, ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from any oil, grease, or dirt, as these will prevent the primer from bonding. Shake the aerosol can vigorously for approximately 2 minutes before starting and periodically during use. Store the can in a cool, dry place away from heat sources. To maintain the spray mechanism, always invert the can after use and spray for 2-5 seconds to clear the nozzle. Compatible with most topcoats on rigid plastics like PVC, fibreglass, and resin.
