Directions for Use

1. Prepare the Surface

Remove all dirt, grease, oil, wax, rust, loose paint and contamination from the surface.

Sand the area until smooth and ensure the substrate is clean and completely dry before application.

2. Treat the Surface Correctly

For bare metal, remove rust completely before priming.

For plastic surfaces, use a compatible plastic adhesion promoter where required before applying primer.

3. Shake Well

Shake the aerosol vigorously for approximately 2–3 minutes before spraying.

Continue shaking periodically during application.

4. Test Spray

Perform a test spray on a hidden area or spare panel to check spray pattern, adhesion and compatibility.

5. Apply the Primer

Hold the can approximately 20–30 cm (8–12 inches) away from the surface.

Spray using smooth, even and overlapping passes.

6. Apply Thin Coats

Apply approximately 2–3 thin coats rather than one heavy coat.

Allow around 5–10 minutes between coats.

Thin coats help reduce:

• Runs

• Sagging

• Uneven drying

• Excessive film build

• Longer drying time

7. Sand if Required

After the primer has dried sufficiently, the surface can be lightly sanded to improve smoothness before applying the final colour coat.

Use the appropriate sanding grade depending on the surface condition and required finish.

Drying Time

• Touch Dry: Approximately 10–15 minutes

• Recoat Time: Approximately 5–10 minutes

• Sanding: After sufficient drying

• Full Cure: Up to 24 hours

Drying time may vary depending on temperature, humidity, ventilation, film thickness and surface condition.

Before Applying Topcoat

Ensure the primer surface is:

• Fully dry

• Smooth

• Free from sanding dust

• Free from grease and contamination

• Properly prepared for the chosen topcoat

For automotive colour applications, apply the compatible basecoat after the primer has dried and been prepared correctly.

Important Application Notes

• Do not apply over dirty or oily surfaces

• Remove rust before application

• Avoid excessively heavy coats

• Maintain consistent spray distance

• Use only in a well-ventilated area

• Allow sufficient drying time before sanding or topcoating

• Test compatibility before full application

• Plastic surfaces may require a dedicated adhesion promoter

When properly applied, LIHA Grey Primer Spray creates a smooth, uniform and paint-ready foundation that helps the final colour coat achieve better adhesion, coverage and overall appearance.
