Is this product paintable? I used another bonding adhesive and primed and painted over and looked good for about 2 months and started to bubble.

I'm sorry to say I haven't had the time to use this yet so I can't answer your question.

It is paintable once it's dry but I would recommend sanding it slightly lower than the surrounding material and using a skim coat of body filler over it for a smooth finish.

I don't know? The color of the product after it dries is a real dark gray, almost black. A two part epoxy paint may stick to it.

Yes, it is paintable. I'm an autobody repair technician with 25+ years experience, so I am definitely qualified to answer your question. I would give it at least 24 hours to cure before you spray anything over it (such as primer). I've never had a problem with bubbling, peeling etc. when painting over this product, so you should be ok as long as you give it enough time before you do your prep work.

Jessie, I don't paint it at all, so don't know. I would suggest dropping by a local body shop or body shop supply and they will probably know.

I think it is paintable. I know its primary use is in auto repair so I think it is paintable.

It cures with a glossy finish. A proper surface prep (scuff sand) once fully cured would be in order to maximize adhesion of any paint/primer you plan to lay over it.

I am not really qualified to answer that.I can tell you I only used it on the seam & to smooth that seam.I did paint over it but not professionally. I didnt see any indication of bubblinhg.It IS a 3M product. I'm sure cure time is important. I'm GUESSING youd be fine.

I can not see this glue bubbling. That being said we do not paint over it on a reegular bases. This glue is so tough you can glue a whole in radiator on it will hold for 2 or more years.

Hi,The paint job is pretty good--I would expect it to be fine as long as it didn't stay wet too long. There was a strong chemical smell when it arrived--left it out since then and it's gone now.

I would say no. It's not that kind of adhesive. My suggestion would be to go to an automotive paint supply store and tell them what you're wanting to do. There are adhesives out there that amaze. I adhered some fender extensions 15 years ago and they look like I did it yesterday. Check with the body shop experts in the automotive paint store. Don't use JB Weld!! Get the right stuff and you won't be disappointed.

I sprayed mine with polyurethane to cover up some mess ups.. worked out real well... so I assume you could paint it as well..

Yes, I removed mine last week (for reasons unrelated to the product) and the paint is fine. It is not a reusable product, however.

I didn't paint it but the stain worked really well. If you have a piece you might try a test on the reverse side of the flexible molding.

Actually have not painted this material but there are a couple spray painta on the market for plastics. Rust oleum is the one I have used for similar products. Clean it well, follow the weather recomdations, & apply in several light, even coats, starting spray off the material, move smoothly across area, & stop after you get past the edge.

I actually used this foam for my God of War/Kratos costume. it is completely possible to paint this without melting it. just be sure to not only test your paint on a piece not included in your project (i.e. cut a small piece off of 1 sheet) to be sure your paint selection won't melt the foam and you might also want to sand down the surface so you don't see the foam particles through the paint. but in short, Yes it is very possible. another option if you want to use spraypaint, use the "model train" spray sealant first and paint over that.

Not sure if it will work for you or not but be warned. About 2 months after I put it on the coating is peeling off and now looks like garbage. I plan to try to paint it with opaque paint but it didn't last long at all.

Yes. I used rim spray paint and its lasted longer then any of that paint youll buy at the hopy store. One of my best looking bodies too date

It worked fine for me, but I also used the primer that goes with the paint first and it did a great job. Looks like brand new. I used it for the coping on the top of my pool.

I think you could paint it, with a primer. It's a little like veneer, so paint might not go on well by itself. It's a sturdy unit, but dings and chips easily. A good strong paint would improve it a lot.

yes...you will want to get a UV spray so it doesn't fade...I made decals for my boat and it worked out fantastic!

I didn't remove any paint, just cleaned the surface and also sealed the edges of the pad with permatex.I have had no issues.

We applied this mural to semi-gloss paint only a few months after painting. We did however have to use an alternate wallpaper glue as the powder glue you mix with water that comes with the mural did not stick well at all.

It is not a thick paint and no it will not hide imperfections! Just so you know I am a professional painter. If you have little dings or any scratches normally you need to fill them with some form of wood putty, sand and smooth and then spot prime those areas. The nuvo paint does not require any primer but any time you do a repair you should prime otherwise the spit you fix will flash (show through). The nuvo really makes the job so much easier because their is no priming necessary. Also I would buy a 4" permafiber roller sleeve (can be found in any quality paint store) usually called a hot dog roller sleeve. The sleeve they give you I found make bubbles. Hope this is helpful!

Yes that is true. In my experience. But it could take a while. I've had it last several years. And yes it's the adhesive not your paint. But at that time I use a hair dryer to get it warm and remove it. Do a full paint detail to include these areas and reapply. I currently use this product on my white painted snowmobile and change it every year. Hope this helps.
