Drying times can vary based on temperature and humidity, but it typically dries to the touch within 15-20 minutes and is fully cured within a few hours.
For flexible plastics, it is recommended to use a primer specifically designed for flexible materials to ensure the paint does not crack or peel.
Clean the surface thoroughly to remove dirt, grease, and old paint. Lightly sand the surface if necessary to create a key, and then apply an appropriate primer for the material you are painting.
Typically, two to three thin, even coats are recommended for optimal coverage and durability. Allow adequate drying time between coats.
Yes, when used with appropriate primers and lacquers, the finish provides good environmental protection suitable for outdoor use.
Coverage varies depending on the surface and application thickness, but a 400ml can typically covers approximately 1-2 square meters.
Shake the can more vigorously. Ensure the nozzle is clean and held at the correct distance (approx. 25-30cm). If blocked, try clearing with a solvent and a fine needle, or replace the nozzle if possible.
Ensure you have used a specific plastic primer compatible with Hycote paints before applying the color coat. Clean the plastic surface thoroughly to remove any mold release agents.
Apply paint in thinner coats. Hold the can at a consistent distance and move it steadily across the surface. Avoid over-application in one area.
Turn the can upside down and spray for a few seconds to clear the nozzle. If still blocked, use a fine wire or pin to carefully clear the nozzle opening.
Setup:
Shake the can vigorously for at least two minutes before use. Ensure the nozzle is clear before and after each use. Apply in a well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight and sources of ignition.
Compatibility:
This paint is designed to be used over Hycote Primers and Hycote Lacquers. It is suitable for use on plastics, metals, wood, and ceramics. For plastics and metallic surfaces, the use of an appropriate primer is recommended for optimal adhesion. It is also compatible with Cellulosic and Acrylic vehicle paintwork.
Care:
Once dry, the finish provides good physical and environmental protection. Clean surfaces gently with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the finish. Store cans upright in a cool, dry place, away from heat and open flames.
