Trade Application Notes

BS 5252 20 E 51 Aerosol Spray Paint is part of the British Standard BS 5252 Aerosol Spray Paint Colour Chart. Each order is batch mixed using Lechler binders and colourants, so repeat orders match across aerosols and tins for return visits and snagging.

  • Formats: 400 ml aerosols in 1K (ready to use) or 2K (with integrated hardener), 1 litre tins, plus touch-up pots and pens.
  • Finishes: Matt 0%, Satin 30%, Semi gloss 60%, Full gloss 90% to suit client specification and maintenance regime.
  • Surface prep: Degrease, abrade to a uniform key, remove dust and salts. Use the correct primer for the substrate and environment.
  • Masking and protection: Mask adjacent glazing, brick, signage and ground. Use sheeting and drop cloths to control fall-out around public areas.
  • Application control: Vari-nozzle cap allows wide or narrow fan patterns. HVLP-style atomisation helps with edge control and reduced overspray.
  • Overspray management: Plan wind direction, set screens where required and keep a safe perimeter. Night or early morning shifts help on busy sites.
  • Weather window: Apply on clean, dry substrates. Avoid rain risk and condensation. Follow temperature and humidity limits in the product data sheet.
  • Recoat and cure: Observe flash-off and recoat guidance from the TDS. Allow full cure before aggressive cleaning or handling.
  • 2K handling: Mix accurately, respect pot life and dispose of waste responsibly. Use suitable PPE and ventilation.
  • Equipment: For aerosols, keep the can warm, shake thoroughly and maintain a wet edge. For tins, use compliant spray gear or mini-roller and fine foam for edges.
  • Coverage and finish: Apply light, even passes. Build film gradually for uniform sheen and durability.
  • Aftercare: Protect fresh coatings from tape pull, impact and wash-down until cured. Provide the client with basic cleaning guidance.
  • Repeatability: Batch codes are recorded so future top-ups can be mixed to the same colour and sheen for consistent touch-ins.

Suitable for a wide range of substrates when paired with the correct primer. Delivers smooth flow, reliable adhesion and long-term colour stability under normal service conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Cause: Contamination, glossy or un-keyed surface, wrong or no primer, moisture on the substrate.

Fix: Strip loose areas, degrease, abrade to a uniform key, and re-prime with a substrate-appropriate primer.

Prevent: Always degrease first, then abrade. Match primer to substrate, and respect drying times before topcoat.

Cause: Heavy passes, too far or too close spraying distance, low temp, poor flow, or insufficient flash-off.

Fix: After cure, denib and flat with fine abrasive, then recoat with lighter, even passes.

Prevent: Keep a steady distance, warm the can, apply light coats, and allow proper flash-off between coats.

Cause: Spraying too far away, fast pass speed, high airflow, or low temperature causing solvent to flash in the air.

Fix: Lightly denib, then apply a wetter pass at the correct distance and speed.

Prevent: Maintain consistent distance, overlap passes by one third, and avoid windy or very cold conditions.

Cause: Silicone, oil or wax contamination that repels the coating.

Fix: Stop, allow to dry, sand out affected areas, deep clean with a suitable degreaser, then re-prime and recoat.

Prevent: Keep the work area silicone free. Avoid furniture polishes and low-grade masking tapes that shed residue.

Cause: Uneven film build, inconsistent overlap, or recoating outside the recommended window.

Fix: After cure, lightly key the surface and apply one or two uniform coats within the specified recoat window.

Prevent: Use consistent pass speed and overlap, and let each coat flash-off before the next.

Cause: Excessive film per pass or lingering too long in one area.

Fix: Allow full cure, nib the defect level with fine abrasive, then recoat with lighter passes.

Prevent: Apply multiple light coats, keep the gun or can moving, and avoid trying to achieve full coverage in one pass.

Cause: Recoating too soon or too late, solvent attacking a sensitive base, or incompatible layers.

Fix: Allow to dry fully, sand back to a stable layer, apply a compatible primer, then recoat within the advised window.

Prevent: Observe recoat times, test compatibility on a small area, and avoid heavy wet coats over uncured layers.

Please note – Our aerosol cans, litre tins and touch up and repair pots/pens are custom mixed and should be tested before application. We do not take responsibility for any colour difference once you have applied the paint to your surfaces. If the colour is not accurate, please contact us to arrange a return.
