Do I need any sort of clear coat over painted vinyl and metallic plastic?

Hi there,

I have used the White Knights Squirts undercoat and gloss paint sprays https://www.whiteknightpaints.com.au/products/craft-and-decorative/white-knight-squirts/ to paint the vinyl in these midcentury drawers and IKEA metallic plastic lamp. My question would be, do they need any further protective coat?

thank you,

Lola

Thank you for your question about painted vinyl.

While not 100% necessary, a clear coat such as this White Knight Clear Gloss Squirts Spray Paint would certainly help to add a layer of protection.

If you'd like to apply a clear coat, allow it to cure for around 2-3 days before putting it to use as while still soft, it can damage quite easily.

Let me know if you have any further questions.
