FAQs

What surfaces can I use this paint on?

This paint is suitable for most metal and rigid plastic surfaces. Ensure the surface is properly prepared and primed for best results.

How long does the paint take to dry?

Drying times vary depending on temperature, humidity, and film thickness. It is typically touch-dry within minutes, but full curing can take longer. Refer to can instructions for specific drying times between coats.

How do I clean the spray nozzle if it gets blocked?

After use, invert the can and spray for a few seconds until clear propellant emerges. This will clear the nozzle and prevent blockages for future use.

Can I use this paint outdoors?

Yes, the paint offers resistance to sunlight and color fading, making it suitable for outdoor applications. Ensure adequate ventilation during application.

What is the coverage of a 150ml can?

The compressed aerosol technology in the 150ml cans provides coverage equivalent to conventional 300ml aerosols. Specific coverage will depend on the surface and application thickness.

Is this paint compatible with other types of paint?

Yes, it is compatible with OEM finishes, acrylic, and cellulosic paints. However, it is not recommended for use over unknown existing finishes without testing.

What does VOC compliant mean?

VOC compliant means the product meets regulations regarding Volatile Organic Compounds. This typically ensures lower environmental impact but may require better ventilation during use.

Troubleshooting

Uneven spray or spitting

Ensure the can is adequately shaken. Clear any blockages in the nozzle by inverting the can and spraying for a few seconds after each use. Ensure consistent spray distance.

Paint not adhering or peeling

The surface may not have been properly prepared. Ensure it was clean, dry, and free from contaminants. Lightly abrading the surface before priming can improve adhesion.

Runs or drips

Applying paint in excessively thick coats or holding the can too close to the surface can cause runs. Apply in thin, even coats and maintain the recommended spraying distance.

Poor coverage

Apply paint in multiple thin coats rather than one thick coat. Ensure the can has been shaken sufficiently to mix the paint thoroughly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  1. Ensure the surface to be painted is clean, dry, and free from grease, oil, and loose paint. Lightly abrade surfaces for better adhesion.
  2. Shake the can vigorously for at least two minutes before use. Shake periodically during use.
  3. Apply the grey primer in light, even coats, allowing sufficient drying time between coats.
  4. Once the primer is dry, apply the Purple Velvet Metallic base coat in light, even coats, holding the can approximately 25-30cm from the surface.
  5. Allow the base coat to become touch-dry before applying the clear lacquer.
  6. Apply the clear lacquer in light, even coats for protection and gloss.

Compatibility:

This paint is compatible with OEM finishes, acrylic, and cellulosic paints. It is not recommended for use on polystyrene or other plastics without a suitable primer.

Care:

Store cans upright in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and sources of ignition. Clean the spray nozzle immediately after use by inverting the can and spraying for a few seconds until clear propellant emerges. Avoid spraying near open flames or heat sources.
