PAINT PREPARATION
- Restore paint before application. Onyx Coating is not a paint restorer; any claying, polishing, and restoration work should be carried out before application.
- Best results are achieved with Body Shop Safe compounds containing no wax or fillers that will have to be removed before Onyx Coating application.
- Wash and dry paintwork.
- Remove wax and sealants from the paint surface. Use Onyx Coating Paint Prep using similar solvent-based paint prep product by applying enough to dampen a cloth and rub over the paintwork.
- Test an inconspicuous area to confirm compatibility, pay special attention to airbrushed or custom paintwork.
- For PPF Nano Coating make sure that PPF film is clean, no oxidization and compatible to PPF Nano Coating
Depending on wax/sealant/tar deposits additional towel(s) may be needed. Do not leave Paint Prep dampened rags on paintwork.
APPLICATION
You may apply the product on a small section of a side window to gauge how quickly the product will dry at a given temperature. This way, you can apply the product to smaller sections to compensate for faster drying.
- Wipe on Onyx Surface Protection coating, covering an entire panel or panel section evenly with a thin coat. Any “touch-ups” of missed spots should be done after the initial product has been buffed (step 2). If additional coats are desired, wait until the initial coating is fully hardened (1-4 Hours).
- Approximately 1-5 minutes after application (depending on temperature and humidity) to the panel or section gently buff to a gloss with a dry microfiber towel. Do not allow the product to dry completely.
- In high (100° F +, 38° C +) temperatures drying time may need to be reduced to less than 1 minute ensure that coating not dried completely.
- If you notice any missed spots after buffing, you can re-treat the spot with Onyx Coating Resin and re-buff the area with a microfiber towel.
- Always test an inconspicuous area to confirm compatibility, pay special attention to airbrushed or custom paintwork.
- Be sure to check all areas after application to make sure no spots need re-buffing.
- Ready for light / dry driving after 8 hrs. Product cures within 4 hours. Coating will exhibit additional hardening over the next 7-14 days.
NANO SHIELD AND PPF NANO COATING NOTES AND PRE-CAUTIONS

- Application is easiest when the product is applied at temperatures between 50-90°F (10-32°C).
- At higher temperatures, larger panels may be broken into two or more sections to compensate for faster evaporation of product.
- Overlapping application sections is OK when splitting a panel into sections.
- Use entire contents of bottle on one vehicle; the product should not be stored after opening.
- Pressure may build slowly in the container. Open the container
- Product is hydrolytically sensitive (reacts with moisture). Prevent the uncured product from coming into contact with water.
