Yes, Hycote Touch Up Brush Paints are suitable for use on plastics, as well as metals, wood, and ceramics.

Once opened and properly sealed, the paint should remain usable for a reasonable period, provided it is stored correctly in a cool, dry place. However, effectiveness may diminish over extended periods.

A primer may be beneficial for deep scratches or chips to ensure good adhesion and coverage. A lacquer can be applied over the colour coat for added protection and gloss, but it's not always mandatory for minor touch-ups.

It's generally best to apply thin, even coats. You may need multiple thin coats to achieve full coverage and a smooth finish, allowing each coat to dry before applying the next.

This product is designed for small touch-ups such as scratches and stone chips. For larger areas or significant damage, professional repainting is recommended.

Ensure the can is shaken thoroughly for at least two minutes. Check that the brush is not clogged and is free to move within the paint.

Re-shake the can and ensure you are applying to a clean, dry surface. Minor variations can occur; try a small test area first. Ensure the correct paint code for your vehicle is selected.

Apply paint in thin, light coats rather than one thick coat. Allow adequate drying time between coats. For larger areas, consider professional application.

Ensure the surface was properly cleaned and degreased before application. The surface may not have been adequately prepared, or the paint may not be adhering correctly due to environmental factors.

Drying times can be affected by humidity and temperature. Ensure application is in a well-ventilated area within recommended temperature ranges. Avoid applying excessive amounts of paint.
