FAQs
Can I use this on plastic items?
Yes, but ensure the plastic is clean and, if necessary, use a plastic-compatible primer first for better adhesion.
How long does it take to dry?
While it is touch-dry quickly, allow at least 24 hours for the paint to fully cure and harden to its final metallic sheen.
Is this paint heat resistant?
This product is designed for decorative purposes; it is not intended for use on high-heat items like engines or stoves.
Do I need a clear coat over the metallic finish?
A clear coat is optional, but note that it may dull the high-gloss metallic effect of the original paint.
Can I use this for outdoor projects?
It is best suited for indoor decorative pieces. Outdoor use may lead to faster fading and wear depending on exposure to elements.
Troubleshooting
Paint is dripping or running
You are likely holding the can too close or applying the coat too heavily. Use lighter, faster passes.
Nozzle is clogging
Invert the can after every use and spray until clear, or soak the nozzle in warm water/solvent if it is blocked.
Poor adhesion or flaking
The surface was likely not cleaned thoroughly. Ensure all grease and dust are removed before the next application.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before starting your project, ensure your workspace is well-ventilated and the ambient temperature is between 65°F and 85°F. Start by cleaning your target surface with a degreaser or mild soap and water to remove all traces of dust, wax, or oil. Once dry, sand any glossy surfaces lightly to provide a 'tooth' for the paint to grip. Always perform a test spray on a scrap piece of cardboard to check the nozzle flow. After use, invert the can and spray for a few seconds to clear the nozzle and prevent clogging for future applications. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
