FAQs

How much area does one 400ml can cover?

Hycote paints offer up to double the coverage of conventional spray paints, but the exact area will depend on the surface type, application technique, and number of coats applied.

Can I use this paint on plastic?

Yes, this spray paint is suitable for most plastic surfaces, provided they are clean, dry, and properly prepared. Using a suitable primer is recommended for best adhesion.

What is the best way to achieve a professional finish?

For a professional finish, always start with a clean, primed surface. Apply paint in thin, even coats, allowing sufficient drying time between applications. Finish with a Hycote lacquer for added protection and shine.

How long does the paint take to dry?

This paint is formulated for super-fast drying. However, specific drying times can vary based on temperature, humidity, and application thickness. Refer to the product can for precise drying guidelines.

Can this be used on car bodywork?

Yes, it is suitable for automotive maintenance and can be used on primed metal surfaces. For car bodywork, it's essential to use a compatible primer and potentially a clear coat for maximum durability and a showroom finish.

How should I store the spray can after use?

After use, turn the can upside down and spray for a few seconds to clear the nozzle. Store in a cool, dry place away from heat and direct sunlight.

Troubleshooting

Uneven spray or sputtering

Shake the can more vigorously and ensure the nozzle is clear. If blockage persists, try gently cleaning the nozzle with a solvent (after removing it from the can and storing the can upside down).

Paint not adhering well

Ensure the surface was properly cleaned and primed. Re-sanding and re-priming may be necessary. Check that the paint is compatible with the surface material.

Runs or drips

Apply paint in thin, even coats. Hold the can at the recommended distance (usually 6-8 inches) and avoid over-application in one pass. If runs occur, allow to dry completely and then lightly sand before reapplying.

Poor coverage

Ensure the can was shaken adequately and applied at the correct distance. Multiple thin coats are more effective than one thick coat. Check that the surface is not excessively porous and has been primed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and sources of ignition. After use, turn the can upside down and spray for a few seconds to clear the nozzle. Clean up any spills immediately with a suitable solvent.
