1. What is JENOLITE Touch Up Enamel Repair?
JENOLITE Touch Up Enamel Repair is a high-quality enamel paint and filler designed for repairing scratches, chips, and minor surface defects on kitchen and bathroom fixtures or appliances. It provides a smooth, durable white gloss finish that restores the appearance of enamel, ceramic, or metal surfaces.
2. What can it be used on?
It’s suitable for use on a wide range of materials, including:
- Porcelain
- Ceramic
- Fibreglass
- Acrylic
- Enamelled cast iron
- Steel
This makes it ideal for sinks, baths, shower trays, cookers, fridges, radiators, and microwaves.
3. What does it do?
It’s an all-in-one filler and paint, meaning it fills small chips and scratches while restoring the surface with a smooth, glossy white enamel finish — no separate filler required.
4. How is it applied?
Each bottle comes with a built-in brush cap applicator, allowing for precise and easy touch-ups. This ensures you only apply product where needed, avoiding mess and over application.
5. How do I prepare the surface?
Before applying:
- Ensure the area is clean, dry, and dust-free.
- Remove any grease or oil for best adhesion.
- If the area has exposed metal, prime it first to prevent corrosion.
6. What is the correct way to apply the paint?
- Shake the bottle well before use.
- Apply in light, even strokes using the built-in brush.
- Build coverage gradually using thin layers, letting each layer dry before applying the next.
- Ensure the chip or scratch is fully filled and level before finishing.
7. How long does it take to dry?
- Touch dry: 30–60 minutes
- Recoat time: Allow 2 hours between coats
- Fully cured: Allow 48 hours before contact with water
Drying times may vary slightly based on temperature and humidity.
8. Can I use it in wet areas like baths or showers?
Yes, once fully cured (after 48 hours), it forms a water-resistant enamel coating suitable for use in bathrooms, kitchens, and other humid environments.
9. What finish does it provide?
It dries to a smooth, glossy white finish that blends seamlessly with most modern enamel, ceramic, and appliance surfaces.
10. Is it suitable for high-temperature areas?
Yes — it’s safe for use on radiators, cookers, and other metal appliances, though it should not be applied to surfaces that reach extreme or open-flame temperatures (e.g., inside ovens).
11. How long does it last?
With proper surface preparation and application, the enamel finish provides long-lasting protection and colour stability, resisting chipping and peeling under normal household use.
12. How should I store it?
Store the bottle in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place, away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Always tighten the cap securely to prevent drying out.
13. Where is it made?
Like all JENOLITE products, the Touch Up Enamel Repair is made in Britain, ensuring premium quality and reliability.
