Product Information
Full details
PlastiKote Metallic Spray in Silver is designed for DIY enthusiasts and crafters looking to achieve a professional, rich metallic finish on home decor and furniture. It is ideal for small projects ranging from wooden chairs to terracotta pots, offering a quick-drying formula suitable for both interior and exterior environments; however, users should note that the 400ml coverage is limited to roughly 2.23m², making it best suited for specific small-scale applications rather than large structural painting.

FAQs
Is this spray safe for indoor use?
Yes, but it must be used in a well-ventilated area, such as an open garage or outdoors, to allow fumes to dissipate.
Can I use this on plastic?
While it adheres well to wood, stone, and wicker, it is recommended to test on an inconspicuous spot if applying to plastic to ensure proper adhesion.
Do I need a primer?
For most porous materials like wood or terracotta, a primer is not strictly necessary, but it can provide a smoother finish and better durability.
How long until I can handle the object?
The product is touch-dry in 5-10 minutes, but it is recommended to wait the full 25-35 minutes before handling or applying a second coat.
Does it work on metal furniture?
Yes, it is effective on metal, provided the surface is clean and free of rust before application.
Troubleshooting
Nozzle clogging during application
Invert the can and spray briefly to clear the valve, or remove the nozzle and soak it in a solvent cleaner.
Drips or runs in the finish
Hold the can further from the object and apply lighter, thinner coats rather than one thick layer.
Uneven or blotchy finish
Ensure the can is shaken thoroughly for at least one minute before and periodically during the spraying process.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before starting, ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from dust or grease. If painting wood, a light sanding improves adhesion. Shake the can vigorously for at least one minute before use to ensure the metallic pigments are evenly distributed. Hold the can approximately 20-30cm from the surface, spraying in smooth, overlapping strokes. Always apply in a well-ventilated area, preferably outdoors or in a garage with the door open. To prevent clogging, turn the can upside down after use and spray for a few seconds to clear the nozzle.
