FAQs

What surfaces can this paint be used on?

This paint is ideal for properly primed surfaces, including metals and rigid plastics. It is specifically designed for automotive trim, wheels, and restoration projects.

Do I need to use a primer?

Yes, for optimal adhesion and durability, it is highly recommended to use a suitable primer, such as Hycote Bodyshop Primer, before applying the spray paint.

How long does it take to dry?

The paint is fast drying. Allow approximately 10-15 minutes between thin coats. Full curing times will vary depending on temperature, humidity, and film thickness.

How should I clean the spray nozzle if it gets blocked?

After use, turn the can upside down and press the nozzle for a few seconds until clear gas emerges. This clears any paint from the nozzle, preventing blockages for future use.

What is the volume of the can?

The can contains 400ml of spray paint.

Can this paint be used on flexible plastics?

While designed for rigid plastics, compatibility with flexible plastics should be tested on an inconspicuous area first, as adhesion and finish may vary.

How can I achieve the best finish?

Ensure thorough surface preparation (cleaning and priming), shake the can well, and apply multiple thin, even coats from the recommended distance.

Troubleshooting

Uneven spray or splattering

Ensure the can is held at the correct distance and moved with a steady motion. Shake the can frequently during use. Clean the nozzle after use by turning the can upside down and spraying until clear gas emerges.

Paint not adhering well

The surface may not have been properly cleaned or primed. Ensure the surface is free from contaminants and a suitable primer has been applied and allowed to dry fully.

Runs or drips

Applied too thickly or from too close a distance. Apply in multiple thin coats rather than one heavy coat. Allow adequate drying time between coats.

Poor coverage

Apply additional thin coats. Ensure the can was shaken sufficiently and frequently during application.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the surface to be painted is clean, dry, and free from grease, oil, and dust.
  2. For best results, apply a suitable primer (e.g., Hycote Bodyshop Primer or a metal/plastic primer appropriate for the substrate).
  3. Shake the aerosol can vigorously for at least two minutes after the ball starts to rattle. This ensures the pigment and propellant are thoroughly mixed.
  4. Hold the can upright and approximately 25-30 cm from the surface.
  5. Apply in thin, even coats, using a steady sweeping motion. Avoid applying too thickly.
  6. Allow adequate drying time between coats, typically 10-15 minutes.

Compatibility:

This product is fully compatible with Hycote Spraypaint and Hycote Bodyshop Primers. Always test on an inconspicuous area first if unsure about compatibility with other materials.

Care:

To maintain the finish, clean the painted surface gently with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the coating.
