Primer – spray can
Paint – spray can
Masking tape
Note: When touching-up the car, it should be clean and dry. The surface temperature should be above
60 ° F (+15 ° C).
When large surfaces have to be repainted, suitably mask the surrounding area with masking tape and
paper. Remove this masking as soon as the final coat has been sprayed on, before the paint dries.
1 Remove loose flakes of paint with masking tape. Shake the spray can for at least 1 minute. Spray the
primer on.
2 Move the spray can slowly and regularly from side to side, about 8-12 inches (20-30 cm) from the
surface.
WARNING! Spray painting should be done in a well ventilated and dust-free
area.
3 When the primer has dried, apply the surface enamel in the same way. Spray on several times and
allow the paint to dry a minute or so between each application.

What causes rust
The two most common causes of rust to your car are:
1 The accumulation of road dirt and moisture in hard-to-get-at cavities and other areas under the car.
2 The removal of paint and protective coatings on the outside of the car and underneath through damage
by stones, gravel or minor accidents.
