Technical Information Radiator Spray
High-quality radiator paint to embellish and repair radiators and boiler tubes. Especially suitable for surfaces which are exposed to variations in temperature. It is easy to paint even difficult to access areas.
To improve the adhesion and for longer durability we recommend to prime the radiator with DUPLI-COLOR Universal Primer.

Using instructions
The most DUPLI-COLOR spray paints have a so-called no-spray ring or a tamper-proof cap. This is to avoid unauthorized use. Please see the corresponding advises on the cap or on the label.
Before use, carefully read and observe the warning texts on the label!
Application
Preparation of the ground:
- The surface has to be clean, dry and fat-free.
- Remove flakes of old painting, then sand and prime.
Lacquering:
- The aerosol can should have room temperature.
- Before use shake the can vigorously for 2 minutes.
- Test colour of spray and compatibility of the lacquer at an invisible spot.
- Spray several thin cross-coats from a distance of approx. 25-30 cm.
- During application take care about good ventilation (but without draft) and carefully cover surrounding area.
- We recommend a protective coat with a synthetic clear lacquer.
- Do not overpaint with acrylic or nitro-combi lackers!
Tips for spray painting
Protect the object and the surrounding area from spray mist.
