FAQs
How many coats should I apply?
Apply several thin coats, allowing each coat to dry before applying the next. This typically results in a better finish than one thick coat.
What is the recommended spraying distance?
Maintain a distance of approximately 20-30 cm (8-12 inches) from the surface for optimal coverage and to minimize runs.
Do I need a primer?
Using a primer is highly recommended, especially on bare metal or plastic. Primer improves adhesion and provides a more uniform surface.
Can I use a clear coat?
Yes, applying a clear coat will enhance the gloss and provide additional protection to the paint.
How long does the paint take to dry?
The paint is fast-drying, typically drying to the touch within 15-30 minutes. Allow at least an hour between coats and a full day for complete curing.
What surfaces can I use this paint on?
This paint is suitable for use on metals, plastics, wood, and ceramics.
How much area can I cover with one can?
Coverage varies based on application technique and surface. One can should cover a reasonable area, especially with the double coverage technology.
Troubleshooting
Paint is running or sagging.
Apply thinner coats and ensure the nozzle is the correct distance from the surface. Avoid applying too much paint in one go.
Color doesn't match.
Ensure you are using the correct color code (GG/E/886 for Olympic Blue). Check the age of your vehicle, as colors can fade over time. Consider professional color matching if necessary.
No paint comes out.
Check the nozzle for clogs. Shake the can vigorously. Ensure the nozzle is correctly attached.
