FAQs

What is the shelf life of the paint?

Shelf life can vary, but it's generally recommended to use the paint within a few years of purchase. Store cans properly to maximize shelf life.

Can I use this paint on plastic bumpers?

Yes, this paint is suitable for use on plastics, provided the surface is properly prepared with cleaning and priming if necessary.

How many coats should I apply?

Apply several thin coats, typically two to three, allowing each coat to dry before applying the next. This provides better coverage and a more durable finish.

Do I need to use a primer?

Priming is recommended, especially on bare metal or plastic surfaces, to improve adhesion and ensure a more even finish. Consult your primer's instructions for application details.

What is the drying time?

Drying times can vary depending on conditions. Refer to the can's label for specific drying times, but generally, allow sufficient time between coats.

How do I store the paint?

Store cans at room temperature away from direct sunlight and heat sources.

Is this paint resistant to UV rays?

Yes, Hycote Double Acrylic Paints, including the UV1, are designed to have excellent resistance to sunlight and fading.

Troubleshooting

Paint is running or dripping.

Apply thinner coats and ensure you are holding the can at the correct distance from the surface. Reduce the amount of paint applied in each pass.

Shake the can well before use. After use, invert the can and spray until only propellant comes out to clear the nozzle.
