About our Paint Cans

BS 4800 - 08 E 55 Aerosol Spray Paint is part of the BS 4800 Aerosol Spray Paint Colour Chart. We batch-mix each order using high-quality Lechler binders and colourants to keep your colour consistent across aerosols and tins.

  • Formats: 400ml aerosols in 1K (ready to use) or 2K (with built-in hardener), litre tins, plus touch-up pots/pens.
  • Finishes: Matt 0%, Satin 30%, Semi 60%, Full Gloss 90% — choose the sheen that suits your job.
  • Extras: Add UV protection for outdoor work or a High-Resistance package for coastal/harsh environments.
  • Control: Vari-nozzle cap gives wide/narrow fan options with HVLP-style atomisation and low overspray.

The Lechler-based system offers reliable flow, adhesion and long-term colour stability across a wide range of substrates (use the correct primer where needed).

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.
