Very efficient service. Availability of good products.

Can I use this on polycarbonate shells?

No, X-11 is not recommended for polycarbonate. For lexan bodies use paints specified for polycarbonate or test with a suitable primer first.

How long should I wait between coats?

Allow each coat to dry to the touch before applying the next. Drying times depend on temperature and humidity, but light sanding between coats can improve adhesion for subsequent layers.

Are there maintenance tips for metallic finishes?

Keep finished items out of prolonged direct sunlight and avoid abrasive cleaners. Use a soft cloth and a gentle polish if needed to maintain the metallic sheen.
