Product Information
Full details
The Autotek Car Spray Paint (Machine Silver) is an ideal solution for Ford owners looking to perform professional-grade touch-ups or small repairs on bodywork. Formulated as an exact match for Ford paint codes 2QTC, 72, L9F7, and 7, this acrylic-based spray provides a durable, weather-resistant finish on metal, fiberglass, and rigid plastic. While it delivers excellent coverage for Ford models from 2001-2008, it requires meticulous surface preparation and the use of a grey primer to achieve the best possible results.

FAQs
Does this paint require a clear coat?
While it can be used alone, applying a clear coat is highly recommended to protect the color and match the gloss levels of the rest of the car.
Can I use this on plastic bumpers?
Yes, it is designed to work on rigid plastic, but ensure you use a plastic adhesion promoter or primer if the surface is particularly smooth.
How many cans do I need for a full panel?
300ml is generally sufficient for small repairs and spot touch-ups. For larger panels, you may require multiple cans depending on the surface area.
What happens if I don't use a primer?
The color may not adhere correctly, and the shade will likely not match the factory finish accurately.
Is this paint heat-resistant?
It is designed for standard automotive body temperatures, but it is not intended for high-heat applications like engine blocks or exhaust systems.
Troubleshooting
Paint is running or sagging during application
You are likely applying the paint too heavily. Use lighter, thinner coats and keep the canister moving at a consistent distance from the surface.
Nozzle is clogged and not spraying evenly
Remove the nozzle and soak it in a solvent, or wipe the tip clean with a cloth dampened with paint thinner. Always invert the can to clear the nozzle after use.
Paint appears to have a different shade than the vehicle
Ensure you used a grey primer first. Also, consider that the vehicle's original paint may have faded due to sun exposure, making the new paint appear slightly brighter.
