FAQs
Can I use this paint on non-automotive surfaces?
Yes, it is highly versatile and can be used on metals, plastics, wood, and ceramics.
How long does it take to dry?
The formula is fast-drying, though full hardness is typically achieved after 24 hours of curing.
Does this product require a clear coat?
Depending on the finish of your vehicle, a clear coat may be applied over the top for extra protection, but the paint is designed to be hard-wearing on its own.
How do I ensure the color matches my car?
Hycote paints are matched to specific manufacturer codes; verify your vehicle's paint code—usually found on the chassis plate—before purchase.
Is this paint suitable for deep dents?
No, this is intended for surface scratches and stone chips. Deep dents require body filler and professional repair techniques.
What is the shelf life of the paint?
When stored correctly with the cap sealed tight in a cool environment, it should remain usable for an extended period.
Troubleshooting
Paint appears too thick or gloopy
Ensure the bottle is shaken thoroughly for at least two minutes before use. If it remains thick, store at room temperature for an hour before applying.
The repair looks uneven or bumpy
Avoid over-applying in a single pass. Apply thin layers and allow each to dry before adding another, then gently polish once fully cured.
Paint is not adhering to the surface
The surface may still have traces of wax or silicones. Clean the area thoroughly with a dedicated solvent-based degreaser and retry.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best results, ensure the target surface is clean, dry, and free from grease, wax, or loose debris. Use a wax and grease remover prior to application. For deep scratches, apply in thin, light coats, allowing for adequate drying time between layers to avoid runs or drips. The product is compatible with most OEM finishes; however, it is recommended to test on an inconspicuous area if the substrate type is uncertain. Always store the bottle in an upright position in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the viscosity and chemical integrity of the paint. Ensure the cap is tightened firmly after each use to prevent the paint from drying out inside the bottle.
