FAQs

Can I use this on all types of plastic?

While it works on many plastics, it is highly recommended to use a dedicated plastic primer first to ensure proper adhesion.

How should I prepare a glossy metal surface?

You should lightly abrade the surface with sandpaper to provide 'tooth' for the paint, then clean thoroughly to remove any dust.

Is this product suitable for painting a car engine?

This is a universal enamel. While it works on vehicle body parts, you should verify if it meets the heat-resistance requirements for engine components.

How long does it take to dry?

The product features a fast-drying formula, though exact times vary by ambient temperature and humidity. Always check the label for specific recoat times.

Can I use this on wood furniture?

Yes, it is excellent for wood, provided the wood is clean, dry, and properly prepared.

Troubleshooting

Nozzle clogging during use

Invert the can and spray for a few seconds to clear the valve, or remove the nozzle and soak it in a suitable solvent.

Paint finish appears dull or uneven

Ensure the surface was sanded and primed correctly. Poor finish is often a result of inadequate surface preparation or applying in high humidity.

Paint peeling or flaking off

The surface was likely not cleaned of grease or the material required a specific primer (such as on plastics). Strip the area, clean thoroughly, and re-prime.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Preparation is the most critical step for this product. Ensure the target surface is entirely clean, dry, and free from contaminants like oil or dust. If the surface is already glossy, lightly abrade it with fine-grit sandpaper to improve mechanical adhesion. For plastic items, applying a dedicated plastic primer is necessary to prevent peeling. Store the aerosol can in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, and always invert the can and spray briefly after use to clear the nozzle and prevent clogging.
