Simoniz Auto Car Grey Plastic Primer - 500ml SIMP08D Strong Surface Adhesion

The Simoniz Auto Car Grey Plastic Primer - 500ml (SIMP08D) is a specialized primer designed for plastic surfaces commonly found on vehicles. Here's a guide on its usage:

1. Surface Preparation

• Clean the Surface : Ensure the plastic surface is clean and free from dust, grease, or any contaminants. Use a degreaser if needed.
• Sanding : Lightly sand the plastic surface with fine-grit sandpaper (e.g., 400-600 grit) to create a slightly roughened surface for better adhesion.
• Dry the Surface : Wipe off any sanding dust with a clean, dry cloth.

2. Application

• Shake the Can : Shake the can well for at least 2-3 minutes to ensure the primer is thoroughly mixed.
• Test Spray : Test the primer on a small, inconspicuous area to check compatibility and coverage.
• Apply Thin Coats : Hold the can about 20-30 cm from the surface and spray in a light, even coat. Avoid heavy coats, as this can lead to runs and drips.
• Drying Between Coats : Allow each coat to dry for about 10-15 minutes before applying additional coats, if necessary.

3. Drying and Finishing

• Full Cure : After the final coat, let the primer dry fully (usually around 1 hour, though drying times may vary depending on temperature and humidity).
• Sanding Before Topcoat : For an even smoother finish, lightly sand the primed surface before applying your topcoat paint. Wipe away any dust after sanding.
• Topcoat Application : Once dry and smooth, apply your chosen paint or finishing coat directly over the primer.
