Full details

This 300ml acrylic-based paint offers an exact match for manufacturer codes 27L, 4BB, and 220, providing a professional-grade finish for metal, glass fibre, and rigid plastic surfaces.

FAQs

Is this paint suitable for plastic bumpers?

It is suitable for rigid plastic surfaces but should not be used on flexible or soft plastics.

Do I need a primer?

Yes, using a suitable automotive primer is highly recommended to ensure proper adhesion and colour accuracy.

How long does it take to dry?

The paint is fast-drying, but you should allow it to cure for at least 24 hours before any buffing or heavy handling.

Will this match a faded paint job?

Because this is an exact match for the original factory code, it may appear brighter than paint that has faded significantly due to age and UV exposure.

Can I use this on non-Vauxhall vehicles?

While the paint will adhere to the surface, the colour is specifically formulated for Vauxhall codes 27L, 4BB, and 220.

Is the finish glossy?

The paint provides a professional finish, but a clear coat is recommended if you require a high-gloss, showroom-quality shine.

Troubleshooting

Paint is running or sagging during application

Apply thinner coats and increase the distance between the can and the surface.

Nozzle has become blocked

Remove the nozzle and soak it in a small amount of thinners, or replace it with a clean spare.

Finish appears dull or uneven

Ensure the surface was adequately primed and sanded before application, and apply a clear coat finish if a high-gloss look is desired.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before use, ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from wax, grease, or rust. Sanding the area with fine-grit abrasive paper will help the paint adhere better to the substrate. Shake the can vigorously for at least two minutes before application to ensure the pigment is properly mixed. Hold the can approximately 20-30cm from the surface, using steady, side-to-side motions. To prevent nozzle clogging, always invert the can after use and spray for a few seconds to clear the internal tube. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the paint for future use.
