Setup, Compatibility & Care
Preparation is critical for a smooth finish. Always sand surfaces lightly if they are glossy or irregular to ensure the paint has a good mechanical bond. Shake the aerosol can vigorously for at least two minutes before use to ensure the pigments are thoroughly mixed.
Compatibility Note: While the paint works on most plastics, it is recommended to test on an inconspicuous area first to ensure no negative chemical reaction occurs. Store the canister in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or open flames. After use, clear the nozzle by holding the can upside down and spraying for two seconds to prevent clogging.
