FAQs

What kind of fuel is this paint resistant to?

This paint is designed to resist damage from common model fuels. However, its fuel resistance diminishes with higher nitro content.

Do I need to apply a fuel proofer?

No, Guild Lane Chroma Enamel Fuelproof Paint does not require an additional fuel proofer for normal fuel usage.

How should I clean the surface after use?

Wipe off any fuel spills as soon as possible after each flying session. Use a soft cloth and avoid abrasive cleaners.

How many coats should I apply?

Apply thin, even coats, allowing each coat to dry completely before applying the next. The number of coats needed depends on the desired finish.

How long does the paint take to dry?

Drying times will vary based on ambient conditions. Refer to the paint can for specific recommendations.

Can I use this paint on different materials?

This paint is compatible with most model materials, but always test on a hidden area first.

Troubleshooting

Paint is blistering after fuel exposure.

Reduce exposure time to fuel, check the nitro content in the fuel, and ensure the painted surface is thoroughly cleaned after each use. Consider applying additional coats of paint or a fuel-resistant sealant.

Paint is not adhering properly.

Ensure the surface is properly prepared (clean, dry, and degreased). Consider using a primer suitable for the model's material.
