Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can I apply this over existing paint?

Yes, provided the existing paint is sound, clean, and has been lightly sanded to provide a mechanical key for adhesion.

Do I need a compressor to use the applicator gun?

Yes, the included applicator gun requires an air compressor to function correctly.

How long should I wait before overpainting?

Refer to the product label for specific flash-off times, but generally, allow the coating to cure fully until it is dry to the touch and no longer tacky.

Is this product suitable for rust treatment?

It is a protective coating; while it seals against future moisture, it should be applied over treated or clean metal, not directly over flaking loose rust.

What is the primary color of this product?

This specific variant is white, which provides a clean base for lighter topcoat colors.

Troubleshooting

Coating is splattering or uneven.

Check air pressure settings and ensure the nozzle of the applicator gun is not partially clogged.

Poor adhesion to the surface.

Surface was likely not properly cleaned or degreased prior to application; ensure all contaminants are removed.

Long drying times.

Ensure the working environment is well-ventilated and within the recommended temperature range; avoid high humidity.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To prepare for application, ensure the target area is completely clean, dry, and free of grease or loose rust. Mask off areas that do not require coating to prevent overspray. The GraviTex system is compatible with most standard automotive paint systems, making it simple to finish with a color-matched topcoat. For care, keep the applicator gun clean by flushing it with an appropriate solvent immediately after use to prevent the coating from hardening inside the nozzle. Store the remaining product in a cool, dry place and ensure the container lid is sealed tightly to prevent moisture contamination.
