The paint is fast-drying; however, it's best to consult the can for the specific drying time. Generally, wait 10-15 minutes between coats.
Do I need to use a primer?

How do I store the paint?

What should I do if the paint runs?
If runs occur, allow the paint to dry completely, sand down the affected area gently, and reapply the paint in thinner coats.
Troubleshooting
Paint is running or sagging.
Apply thinner coats and ensure you are holding the can the correct distance from the surface. Avoid applying paint in direct sunlight or high temperatures.
Colour doesn't match.
Ensure you are using the correct Ford colour code (7VTAWWA). If the colour still does not match, consider blending the new paint with the old by feathering the edges.
Paint is not adhering properly.
Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and properly prepared. Use a suitable primer before applying the paint.
Spray nozzle clogs.
Clean the nozzle after each use by inverting the can and spraying until only propellant comes out. If the nozzle is clogged, try using a pin to clear the opening.
