FAQs

How long does it take for the paint to dry?

The paint requires approximately 16 hours to dry to the touch. Full curing may take several days.

Can I use this spray paint on outdoor furniture?

Yes, this paint is suitable for various surfaces including metal and wood, making it appropriate for outdoor furniture, provided the surface is properly prepared and the item is not constantly exposed to harsh weather conditions without further protection.

What is the coverage rate of this spray paint?

The paint covers an average of 2 square metres per litre.

How should I prepare surfaces before painting?

Surfaces should be clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, and loose material. Light sanding may be necessary for smooth surfaces, followed by a thorough wipe-down.

Can I paint over old paint with this product?

Yes, you can paint over old paint if it is in good condition. Ensure the old paint is clean, dry, and lightly sanded for better adhesion. If the old paint is peeling or flaking, it must be removed first.

What should I do if the spray nozzle clogs?

After use, turn the can upside down and spray for a few seconds to clear the nozzle. If it remains clogged, carefully remove and clean the nozzle with a solvent or replace it.

Is this paint suitable for children's furniture?

While the paint provides a durable finish, it is recommended to check the product's safety certifications for use on children's items, especially those that might be chewed or heavily mouthed.

Troubleshooting

Uneven finish or streaking

Ensure the can is shaken sufficiently before and during use. Apply in thin, even coats from the recommended distance (25-30 cm). Avoid applying too much paint at once.

Paint not adhering properly or peeling

The surface may not have been adequately prepared. Ensure it was clean, dry, and free from grease or dust. Light sanding may be required for smooth surfaces. Ensure correct primer was used if needed.

Nozzle clogging

Shake the can well. If the nozzle is clogged after use, turn the can upside down and spray for a few seconds to clear the nozzle. If persistent, remove and clean the nozzle carefully with a solvent or replace it.

Paint runs or drips

Apply the paint in lighter coats rather than one heavy coat. Ensure you are holding the can at the correct distance and moving it at a steady pace.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Preparation: Ensure the surface to be painted is clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, and any loose material. For best adhesion, lightly sand surfaces like metal or previously painted wood, then wipe clean. For smooth surfaces like glass or plastic, a primer may be beneficial (check product recommendations).
  2. Environment: Use in a well-ventilated area, ideally outdoors or in a room with open windows. Protect surrounding areas from overspray with masking tape and drop cloths.
  3. Application: Shake the can vigorously for at least two minutes before use. Hold the can upright, about 25-30 cm (10-12 inches) away from the surface. Apply in light, even coats, moving the can in a steady back-and-forth motion. Avoid applying too heavily in one go.

Compatibility:

This paint is compatible with a wide range of surfaces, including:

  • Wood
  • Metal
  • Plastic
  • Ceramic
  • Glass

Always test on an inconspicuous area first, especially on plastics or sensitive surfaces.

Care:

  • Allow a minimum of 16 hours for the paint to dry completely before handling or exposing to wear. For full curing, allow several days.
  • Clean up any spills or overspray immediately with appropriate solvents (refer to can instructions). Once dry, the finish can be wiped clean with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
