FAQs

What Honda models is this paint compatible with?

This paint is compatible with Honda Accord, Civic, CR-V, FR-V, HR-V, Jazz, Legend, NSX & Prelude models manufactured from 1992 onwards, provided their paint code is R81 (Honda Milano Red).

Do I need to use a primer?

Yes, applying a minimum of two coats of Autotek Red Primer is recommended for optimum adhesion and the best possible finish.

How long does the paint take to dry?

The paint should be touch dry in 10-20 minutes after application. It needs to fully cure for 24 hours.

Can this paint be used on plastic parts?

Yes, the paint is suitable for application on rigid plastic surfaces, as well as metal and glass fibre.

What are the ideal conditions for applying this spray paint?

The paint should be applied outdoors or in a well-ventilated area at temperatures between 15°C and 25°C.

How should I clean the spray can nozzle after use?

Immediately after use, turn the aerosol can upside down and spray for 2-5 seconds to clear any paint from the nozzle and prevent blockages.

Can this be used on surfaces other than cars?

While designed for automotive use, it can be applied to metal, glass fibre, or rigid plastic surfaces. Ensure proper preparation for non-automotive substrates.

Troubleshooting

Paint is not spraying evenly or is splattering

Shake the aerosol can more vigorously. Ensure the nozzle is not blocked by performing the upside-down spray after use. Try increasing the spray distance slightly.

Poor adhesion or peeling paint

The surface may not have been properly prepared. Ensure the area was thoroughly cleaned, degreased, and primed according to instructions. Ensure the surface was dry before application.

Colour match is not accurate

Verify that the vehicle's paint code is indeed R81 Honda Milano Red. Ensure sufficient coats were applied as per instructions. Different lighting conditions can affect perceived colour match.

Paint runs or drips

The paint is likely being applied too thickly or too close to the surface. Apply in multiple thin coats, allowing proper drying time between each, and maintain the recommended spray distance of 15-25cm.

Nozzle blockage

Clear the nozzle by turning the can upside down and spraying for 2-5 seconds immediately after use. If already blocked, try soaking the nozzle in warm water and carefully clearing any residue.
