Novol 34512 Structure Topcoat – Textured Anthracite Grey (500ml)
Give your vehicle’s plastic trims a modern, high-end look with the Novol 34512 Structure Topcoat. This one-component (1K) acrylic spray is specifically designed to restore or customize plastic components with a fine-grained texture and a sophisticated Anthracite Grey finish.
Unlike standard flat paints, this structured coating hides repair imperfections and mimics the premium textured plastics found on modern bumpers, side mirrors, and interior dashboard elements.
Key Features & Benefits
- OEM Anthracite Finish: A deep, metallic-flecked grey that provides a more contemporary "premium" look than standard black trim paint.
- Textured Camouflage: The granular finish is excellent at masking minor scratches, scuffs, or transition lines from plastic filler repairs.
- Direct-to-Plastic Adhesion: Formulated for high bond strength on common automotive plastics like ABS, PC, PA, PPO, and PP/EPDM.
- UV & Weather Resistant: Durable acrylic resins prevent fading and chalking caused by sun exposure and harsh road conditions.
- Fast Drying: Rapid evaporation allows for quick handling and reinstallation of exterior trim pieces.
- Adjustable Grain: The "bumpiness" of the texture can be manipulated by changing your spray distance and speed.
Professional Application Strategy
The Anthracite Grey version contains fine metallic-like pigments, so consistent agitation is key to an even color.
Application Steps:
- Preparation: Clean the plastic thoroughly with Novol Plus 780. If the plastic is "oily" or very smooth, a light scuff with a grey abrasive pad is recommended.
- Priming (Optional): For difficult plastics like PP (Polypropylene), apply a thin layer of Novol Plus 700 Adhesion Promoter first.
- Mixing: Shake the can for 2 full minutes.
- Spray Technique: Apply 2 thin layers.
- For Fine Texture: Spray from 20cm with steady, overlapping passes.
- For Heavy Texture: Increase the distance to 30cm and use a lighter, "misting" motion to allow the droplets to dry slightly before hitting the surface.
- Flash-off: Allow 5–10 minutes between coats.
Pro Tip: Anthracite Grey is an excellent choice for restoring "unpainted" plastic flares on SUVs and trucks—it provides a cleaner, more "factory-new" contrast than faded black.
