This 37.5ml touch-up paint offers a convenient way to restore your car's appearance with a durable, weather-resistant finish, though it is intended primarily for small localized repairs rather than large-scale bodywork refinishing.

Yes, it is effective, but deep scratches that have exposed bare metal may require a primer layer before applying the colour touch-up paint.
Yes, the formula is fully compatible with plastics, provided the surface is clean and properly prepared.
While it provides a tough finish on its own, applying a clear coat over the touch-up can provide additional gloss and protection against environmental factors.
The paint is fast-drying, typically becoming touch-dry within 30 minutes, though it is best to allow 24 hours for a full cure.
Hycote paints are matched to over 100 manufacturer specs, but factors such as vehicle age and sun fading may cause slight variances.
The paint may have been applied too thickly; ensure layers are thin and allow adequate drying time between coats.
Ensure the area has been thoroughly cleaned of wax, polish, or road grease using a suitable degreaser.
Clean the screw threads of the bottle with a solvent-dampened cloth after every use to prevent paint residue from drying and locking the cap.
Before starting, shake the bottle vigorously for at least two minutes to ensure the pigment is properly mixed. Clean the damaged area with a degreasing agent to guarantee adhesion. The paint is compatible with existing OEM finishes, but it is always recommended to test the color on an inconspicuous area first to verify a match. After use, wipe the brush and the neck of the bottle clean to prevent the cap from seizing. Store the bottle in an upright position in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the chemical composition.
