FAQs

Does this paint require a clear coat?

While the paint is fuel-proof on its own, applying a clear coat can provide extra protection and depth if desired.

Can I use this on plastic models?

Yes, it is suitable for plastics, but always use a suitable primer first for optimal adhesion.

How long does it take to fully cure?

While it is touch-dry quickly, allow at least 24 hours for the paint to fully cure and achieve maximum fuel resistance.

Is this paint compatible with acrylics?

You can usually paint over cured acrylics, but avoid applying acrylics over wet enamel as it may cause lifting.

How should I clean up overspray?

Use a standard enamel thinner or white spirit while the paint is still wet.

Troubleshooting

Paint is running or sagging

You are applying the paint too heavily; apply thinner coats from a greater distance.

Nozzle is clogged and not spraying

Remove the nozzle and soak it in a suitable enamel thinner or replace it if damaged.

Finish looks textured or rough

The spray distance is too far; bring the nozzle closer and ensure the air temperature is within recommended limits.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve the best results, shake the canister vigorously for at least two minutes before starting. Ensure the ambient temperature is between 15°C and 25°C for the best flow. Always test on a scrap piece of plastic or metal before applying to your final model to check for compatibility with your base coat. After use, invert the can and spray for a few seconds to clear the nozzle, preventing clogging. Store the aerosol in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the enamel.
