FAQs
Which Rover models is this compatible with?
This is compatible with Rover 25, 45, 75, 100, 200, 400, MGF, MG TF, and Mini models produced between 1995 and 2001.
Do I need a primer?
Yes, for optimal adhesion and finish, it is highly recommended to apply two coats of Autotek Grey Primer before the colour coat.
What is the recommended application temperature?
The paint should be applied in an environment between 15°C and 25°C for the best drying and bonding results.
Can this be used on plastic parts?
Yes, the paint is designed to be compatible with rigid plastic surfaces, provided the surface is clean and primed properly.
How long should I wait between coats?
You should allow 10-20 minutes of drying time between each application layer.
How long should I shake the can before use?
Shake the aerosol vigorously for at least two minutes to ensure the paint and metallic components are fully mixed.
Troubleshooting
Paint is running or sagging during application
You are likely holding the can too close to the surface or applying the coats too heavily. Increase the distance to 15-25cm and apply thinner layers.
Finish appears dull or does not match
Ensure the surface was primed with Autotek Grey Primer and that the aerosol was shaken for the full two minutes to distribute pigments evenly.
Nozzle is clogged
Soak the nozzle in a small amount of paint thinner or replace it if the clog persists after flushing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before starting your project, remove all rust, wax, and debris from the surface to allow the paint to bond correctly. It is essential to apply two coats of Autotek Grey Primer first to ensure proper adhesion. Shake the 300ml aerosol can vigorously for at least two minutes before each use to ensure the metallic pigment is properly mixed. During application, always work in a well-ventilated space to avoid fume accumulation. Allow 10-20 minutes of drying time between each coat. Clean the spray nozzle by turning the can upside down and spraying for a few seconds after the job is finished to prevent clogging.
