How to Use COSMOS Metallics Spray Paint for Best Results
Achieving the best metallic look requires smooth preparation:
- Preparation: The surface must be clean, dry, and perfectly smooth. For maximum metallic impact, use a compatible primer. Sand the surface lightly with fine sandpaper and ensure it is dust-free. Learn how to properly prep metal surfaces for painting.
- Mixing: Shake the can vigorously for at least 1 minute after hearing the mixing ball. Metallic pigments settle quickly, so shake frequently during application.
- Application: Hold the can 20–25 cm from the surface. Apply in several thin, light coats, maintaining a consistent distance. Avoid heavy, wet coats, as they can cause the metallic flakes to sink, dulling the finish.
- Finishing: Allow the finish to dry completely. For added protection and slight depth, a compatible clear lacquer can be applied (test first, as this may slightly alter the metallic sheen).
- Cleaning the Valve: After use, invert the can and press the nozzle for 3 seconds to clear the valve. Master the aerosol shaking technique for consistent coverage.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Will this metallic paint tarnish?
A: While designed to resist tarnishing, like all metallic finishes, constant exposure to moisture, strong chemicals, or harsh sunlight may affect its brilliance over many years.
Q: Is this suitable for automotive wheels?
A: For wheels and high-impact automotive areas, a professional, durable enamel or 2K system is recommended due to constant brake dust and road impact, unless topped with a high-durability clear coat.
Q: What is the best base coat to use?
A: A smooth, dark primer or black base coat is often used underneath metallic colors to make the metallic flakes appear richer and deeper.
