FAQs

Can I use this on a surface other than metal?

Yes, this paint is compatible with plastics, wood, and ceramics in addition to automotive metal.

Is this paint compatible with my existing finish?

It is designed to be compatible with both acrylic and cellulosic finishes, as well as OEM paint standards.

How long does it take to dry?

The formula is fast-drying, though it is recommended to wait a few hours before exposing the vehicle to harsh weather conditions.

Does this paint protect against fading?

Yes, it features excellent resistance to sunlight and fading, helping to maintain the colour integrity over time.

What is the best way to store the bottle?

Store the bottle in an upright position in a cool, dry place, ensuring the cap is screwed on tightly.

Should I sand the area before applying?

For best results, lightly sand any rough edges of a scratch or chip to ensure a smooth surface before painting.

Troubleshooting

Paint appears blotchy or uneven

The pigment has likely settled; ensure you shake the bottle vigorously for a longer duration before application.

Paint is not adhering to the surface

The surface likely has residual wax or grease. Clean the area thoroughly with a suitable solvent or degreaser and reapply.

The brush is stiff or dried out

Soak the brush in a small amount of brush cleaner or appropriate solvent to soften the bristles, then wipe clean.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Quick and easy to apply for DIY repairs
  • Excellent resistance to UV rays and fading
  • Hard-wearing and tough final finish
  • Suitable for use on non-automotive materials like plastic and wood

Cons

  • Small 37.5ml container is not suitable for large panel repairs
  • Requires careful surface preparation to ensure proper adhesion
  • Deep scratches may need multiple layers to achieve a level surface

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before applying the paint, ensure the target area is completely clean, dry, and free of wax, grease, or rust. Use a degreaser if necessary. Shake the container thoroughly for at least two minutes to ensure the metallic pigment is evenly distributed. Apply thin layers rather than one thick coat to prevent pooling or runs. Store the bottle upright in a cool, dry place and ensure the cap is tightly sealed after every use to prevent the paint from drying out inside the bottle.
