FAQs

Can I use this on plastic bumpers?

Yes, this paint is suitable for use on a variety of substrates, including plastics.

Does this paint require a clear coat?

While the paint provides a tough, durable finish, applying a clear coat over the touch-up can add extra gloss and depth if desired.

How long does it take to dry?

The paint is fast-drying, but full curing and maximum hardness will be achieved after a few hours depending on ambient temperature.

Is this color a perfect match for my car?

Hycote paints are expertly matched to manufacturer specifications, though older vehicles with sun-faded paint may show slight variations.

Can I use this for wood repairs?

Yes, this product is compatible with wood, metal, ceramics, and plastics.

How do I store the paint?

Store the bottle in an upright position in a cool, dry place with the cap tightened securely.

Troubleshooting

Paint appears uneven or streaky

Apply thinner layers and ensure the surface is perfectly flat and clean before starting.

Paint is not adhering to the surface

Check that the surface is free of silicone, wax, or grease. Use a degreaser to prepare the area thoroughly.

The brush is clumped with dried paint

Clean the bristles gently using a compatible thinners or brush cleaner, then store the bottle upright.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before applying, shake the bottle vigorously to ensure the pigment is thoroughly mixed. Ensure the repair surface is completely clean, dry, and free of oil or debris by using a degreaser or automotive-grade cleaner. Apply the paint using the integrated brush in the cap, wiping excess paint against the bottle neck to avoid drips. The paint is compatible with existing OEM factory finishes. To maintain the bottle, always wipe the cap thread clean before tightening to ensure an airtight seal, which prevents the paint from drying out prematurely. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
