What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm
The manufacturer says metallic and rigid plastic surfaces require appropriate primers and advises checking suitability before painting over primers of unknown composition. Drying information is inconsistent: the listing gives a 2-hour full cure time and also lists 24 hours as dry time, without clarifying how those timings relate. Coverage is described only as “up to twice the coverage” without a comparison basis. Follow the product directions for preparation and application.
