FAQs
How long should I leave the paint remover on the surface?
Refer to the product packaging for specific dwell times, as this can vary depending on the type and thickness of the paint. Typically, it ranges from 10 to 20 minutes.
Can this product be used on plastic parts?
It is recommended to test on a small, inconspicuous area first, as strong solvents can potentially damage or discolour certain types of plastic. Avoid prolonged contact with sensitive plastics.
Do I need to wear protective gear?
Yes, it is highly recommended to wear chemical-resistant gloves, eye protection, and a respirator or mask suitable for organic vapors, especially when working in poorly ventilated areas.
What is the best way to remove the softened paint?
Use a plastic scraper or putty knife to gently lift the softened paint. For larger areas, a stiff brush or cloth can be used. Avoid using metal scrapers that could scratch the underlying surface.
How should I dispose of the leftover product and residue?
Dispose of leftover product and residue in accordance with local regulations for hazardous waste. Do not discard into drains or the environment.
Is this product safe for use indoors?
While it can be used indoors, extreme caution and excellent ventilation are necessary. It is best suited for outdoor use or in a well-ventilated workshop.
Troubleshooting
Product not spraying effectively
Ensure the can is shaken thoroughly for at least two minutes. Check that the nozzle is not clogged. If clogged, try cleaning it by inverting the can and spraying until clear propellant emerges.
Paint not removing easily
Allow the remover to dwell for the recommended time (refer to can instructions). For stubborn or multiple layers of paint, a second application may be necessary. Ensure a sufficiently thick layer was applied.
Unpleasant odor
Use the product only in a well-ventilated area. Wear appropriate respiratory protection if working indoors or in confined spaces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Shake the can vigorously for at least two minutes before use. Test the spray on an inconspicuous area first to ensure compatibility with the surface. Hold the can upright and spray from a distance of 15-20 cm.
Compatibility: This product is designed for use on most automotive surfaces. However, always test on a small, hidden area before full application, as it may affect certain plastics, rubber, or freshly painted surfaces. It is effective on various paint types including lacquer and enamel.
Care: Store the can in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Ensure the nozzle is clean after each use by inverting the can and spraying for a few seconds until only propellant comes out. Keep out of reach of children.
