- Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Wear appropriate eye protection (safety glasses or goggles), gloves, and a respirator if ventilation is inadequate.
- Flammability: Contents are extremely flammable. Keep away from heat, sparks, open flames, and hot surfaces. Do not smoke.
- Pressure: Contents under pressure. Do not puncture or incinerate container. Do not expose to heat or store at temperatures above 120°F (49°C).

Setup and Preparation
- Surface Preparation: Ensure the surface to be marked is clean, dry, and free of loose debris, dirt, or oil.
- Area Protection: Protect surrounding areas from overspray, especially if marking near sensitive surfaces or vegetation.
- Shake Can: Shake the can vigorously for at least one minute after the mixing ball begins to rattle. Continue to shake occasionally during use.
- Test Spray: Before applying to the intended surface, test spray on a scrap piece of material or an inconspicuous area to ensure proper color and spray pattern.
Operating Instructions
This product features an inverted spray tip for ground marking.
- Positioning: Hold the can upside down (inverted) with the spray tip pointing towards the ground.
- Distance: Position the can approximately 4-10 inches (10-25 cm) from the surface to be marked. Adjust distance for desired line width and intensity.
- Application: Press the spray tip firmly to activate the spray. Move the can steadily along the desired path to create a continuous line. For stenciling or spot marking, hold the can stationary over the area.
- Multiple Coats: For darker or more opaque lines, apply multiple thin coats rather than one thick coat. Allow a few minutes between coats.
- Drying Time: The paint is designed for fast drying. Touch dry time may vary based on temperature, humidity, and film thickness.
Maintenance
- Clearing the Nozzle: After each use, or if the nozzle becomes clogged, invert the can and spray for a few seconds until only clear propellant comes out. This helps prevent clogging for future use.
- Storage: Store the can in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and open flames. Do not store at temperatures above 120°F (49°C). Keep out of reach of children and pets.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| No spray or weak spray | Clogged nozzle; insufficient shaking; low temperature. | Clear nozzle by inverting and spraying until clear propellant appears. Shake can vigorously for at least one minute. Ensure can is at room temperature before use. |
| Uneven spray pattern | Inconsistent can movement; partially clogged nozzle. | Maintain a steady, even motion during application. Clear nozzle as described above. |
| Paint runs or drips | Too much paint applied in one coat; can held too close to surface. | Apply multiple thin coats instead of one heavy coat. Increase distance from surface (maintain 4-10 inches). |
