What is rubber paint and what can it be used for?

Rubber paint is a flexible, easily removable coating that adheres well to various surfaces, such as metal, plastic, or wood. This special paint is also available in spray form, making it easy to apply to the desired object.

⬤ Color and finish – Matte, glossy, or satin finish? There are plenty of shades to choose from!
⬤ Adhesion and durability – Rubber paint adheres well to most surfaces and can even be used on glass.
⬤ Weather resistance – The product is suitable for outdoor use, UV-resistant, and water-repellent.

TIP: Always try the paint on a small area first to see the final result!

How to use rubber spray paint correctly

1. Preparation – Clean surface = durable paint

Before starting the painting, make sure the surface is grease- and dust-free.

Cleaning steps:
1️⃣ Use a degreaser or alcohol to remove dirt.
2️⃣ Dry the surface thoroughly.
3️⃣ If necessary, use masking tape to cover areas you don't want to paint.

2. The painting process

Using rubber spray paint is not difficult, but there are a few basic rules to follow:

1️⃣ Shake the bottle well – Shake the spray for at least 1-2 minutes to ensure the paint is even.
2️⃣ Apply even layers – Do not spray a thick layer at once, but rather apply several thin layers.
3️⃣ Keep the right distance – Usually, you need to spray from a 20-30 cm distance.
4️⃣ Allow time for drying – Wait 15-20 minutes between layers to achieve the best result.

PRO TIP: If you want the final color to be brighter and more vibrant, you can use a white rubber coating as a base layer!

How to remove the paint – How to peel it off?

One of the best features of rubber paint is that it can be removed without damaging the original surface.

Removal steps:
1️⃣ Wait for the paint to dry completely.
2️⃣ Start peeling it off gently from one corner.
3️⃣ If it is hard to remove, you can use warm water or a special remover liquid.

If you applied the paint in thin layers, it will be harder to remove. Therefore, it's recommended to spray at least 4-5 layers for easier peeling!

Common mistakes and solutions

❌ Uneven application → Use several thin layers, don’t spray a thick coat at once!
❌ Spotty effect → Make sure to apply even strokes and maintain proper distance.
❌ Hard-to-remove layer → The thicker the paint layer, the easier it is to peel off!
❌ Dripping paint → Don’t spray too close, and don’t hold the spray in one place for too long.
