Subcategories
Specialist sprays for painting, repair and surface treatment
Specialist sprays include aerosol paints, coatings, cleaners and repair products developed for specific applications. The range covers everything from conventional paint aerosols to corrosion protection, high-temperature coatings, flexible rubber coatings, waterproof sealers and paint removers.
Choose the product according to the job rather than simply the aerosol format. Corrosion protection, exhaust painting, interior trim restoration and leak sealing all require different materials.
Acrylic spray paint
Acrylic spray paints are versatile aerosol coatings for general painting and refinishing work. They are available in a range of RAL and other colours and in different gloss levels.
Substrate suitability, primer requirements and the need for a clear coat depend on the individual product and application.
Zinc spray for corrosion protection
Zinc sprays are used for corrosion protection of steel and galvanised surfaces, repairing damaged zinc coatings and selected welding-related applications.
The range includes both high-zinc and zinc-aluminium aerosol coatings. Always check the individual technical specification before selecting a product for a particular application.
High-temperature spray paint
High-temperature paints are designed for metal surfaces exposed to elevated operating temperatures.
Different products are available for exhaust components, stoves, fireplaces, boilers and other heat-exposed metal surfaces. Select the paint according to the expected operating temperature of the component.
Rubber paint and liquid rubber spray
Rubber paint forms a flexible rubber-like coating. Aerosol liquid rubber can create a peelable film when applied at sufficient thickness, making it useful for temporary colour changes, decorative work and protection of compatible surfaces.
Rubber paint and liquid rubber aerosol products are organised separately so you can select the most suitable product for the intended job.
Paint remover and paint stripper spray
Paint remover spray is used to soften old paint and clear coat before mechanical removal.
It can be useful during restoration or before refinishing when an existing coating needs to be stripped completely. Gel-type aerosol paint removers also cling more effectively to vertical surfaces.
Degreaser spray for surface preparation
Degreaser spray is an important surface preparation product before priming or painting.
Suitable products can remove oil, grease, wax, silicone, sanding residue and other contamination from compatible metal, painted, primed and plastic surfaces.
Correct cleaning and degreasing helps reduce the risk of adhesion defects in the subsequent coating system.
Vinyl spray paint for automotive interiors
Vinyl spray paints are primarily intended for restoring compatible vinyl, leather, synthetic leather and plastic interior surfaces.
Their flexible coating makes them suitable for applications such as dashboards, door panels, consoles and other interior trim components.
Always confirm compatibility with the specific substrate before application.
Waterproof sealing spray for leaks
The sealing sprays in this product group are not automotive seam sealers. They form flexible waterproof coatings intended to seal cracks, small holes and leaking areas.
Depending on the product, they can be used for applications such as roofs, gutters and other compatible exterior surfaces where water ingress needs to be stopped.
Refillable aerosol cans
Refillable aerosol cans allow compatible paints and coating materials to be applied in aerosol form when they are not originally supplied as a ready-filled spray.
Always check the compatibility of the aerosol system with the material you intend to fill. Not every refillable can is suitable for every type of coating.
Other technical aerosols
The category also contains specialist products that do not justify a separate subcategory on their own. These include aerosol upholstery adhesives for bonding compatible automotive trim, carpet and other materials.
How to choose the right specialist spray
Start by identifying the task you need to complete.
- General painting: acrylic spray paint.
- Corrosion protection: zinc spray.
- Heat-exposed surfaces: high-temperature paint.
- Flexible removable coating: rubber paint or liquid rubber spray.
- Old paint removal: paint remover spray.
- Pre-paint cleaning: degreaser spray.
- Interior trim restoration: vinyl spray paint.
- Sealing leaks and water ingress: waterproof sealing spray.
- Applying your own compatible paint as an aerosol: refillable spray can.
Before use, always read the individual product's technical and safety information, particularly regarding substrate compatibility, temperature, surface preparation and personal protective equipment.
Frequently asked questions about specialist sprays
What is a specialist spray?
It is an aerosol paint, coating, cleaner or repair product designed for a specific task such as corrosion protection, high-temperature painting, degreasing, sealing or paint removal.
Can every specialist spray be used on cars?
No. Some products are suitable for automotive applications while others are intended for general repair or surface treatment. Always check the technical information for the individual product.
What is the difference between acrylic spray paint and a specialist spray?
Acrylic spray is one specific type of paint, while specialist spray is a broader category that also includes zinc, high-temperature, rubber, cleaning, sealing and paint-removal aerosols.
Which spray should I use for corrosion protection?
A suitable zinc or corrosion-protection spray may be used on compatible steel surfaces. Paint remover is not a rust converter, so corrosion should be treated separately with an appropriate product.
Is sealing spray the same as automotive seam sealer?
No. The sealing sprays in this category are flexible waterproof coatings for sealing leaks, cracks and water ingress. Automotive seam sealers belong to a separate product category.
What are refillable aerosol cans used for?
They are used to apply compatible paint or coating materials in aerosol form. Always check that the selected can system is compatible with the material you intend to fill.
