FAQs

How much area can one 150ml can cover?

Due to its concentrated formula, one 150ml can offers up to double the coverage of standard aerosols, but the exact area will depend on the surface and application thickness. It's generally sufficient for touch-ups and small to medium-sized items.

Can I use this paint on plastic car parts?

Yes, this paint is compatible with plastics. Ensure the plastic surface is clean and free from contaminants. For best results, consider applying a plastic primer first.

How long does the paint take to dry?

The paint is fast-drying. A touch-dry state is typically achieved within minutes, with recoating recommended after 10-15 minutes, depending on ambient temperature and humidity.

Is this paint suitable for exterior use?

Yes, the paint has excellent resistance to sunlight and fading, making it suitable for exterior applications. Ensure proper surface preparation and adequate drying.

What surfaces can this paint be used on?

It can be used on metals, plastics, wood, and ceramics. It is also compatible with OEM finishes, as well as acrylic and cellulosic finishes.

How should I store the can after use?

After use, turn the can upside down and spray for a few seconds to clear the nozzle. Then, securely replace the cap and store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources.

Troubleshooting

Uneven spray pattern or sputtering

Shake the can more vigorously. Ensure the nozzle is not blocked. Turn the can upside down and spray briefly to clear the nozzle. If blockage persists, consider a replacement nozzle if available or a new can.

Paint runs or drips

You may be holding the can too close or applying too thickly. Apply in lighter, more even coats from the recommended distance. Allow adequate drying time between coats.

Poor adhesion or peeling

The surface may not have been properly prepared. Ensure it was clean, dry, and free of contaminants. Lightly abrade glossy surfaces before application. Consider applying a suitable primer if necessary.

Color does not match OEM

While color-matched, variations in original paint fade, surface condition, and application technique can affect the final appearance. Ensure the correct OEM code was referenced and re-evaluate surface preparation and application.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Preparation: Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from grease, wax, or rust. For best adhesion, lightly abrade glossy surfaces. If painting over existing paint, ensure compatibility or apply a suitable primer.

Application: Shake the can vigorously for at least two minutes before use. Hold the can upright and spray from a distance of 25-30cm. Apply in several light, even coats, allowing 10-15 minutes between coats. Avoid applying too thickly in one go. For best results, turn the can upside down after use and spray for a few seconds to clear the nozzle.

Compatibility: Suitable for use on primed metal, wood, plastic, and ceramics. Compatible with most existing acrylic and cellulosic finishes.

Care: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and sources of ignition. Ensure the cap is securely replaced after use.
