Overview
Built for the job.
A fast drying lacquer-based spray paint that provides durable indoor and outdoor protection. Resistant to the effects of weather and many chemicals. Resists abrasion and heat (250 deg F). Bare surfaces or rusted metal surfaces should first be primed with our Spruce® primers to ensure proper adhesion.
SEYMOUR® Spruce® 98-38 is a fast‑drying lacquer spray paint formulated for automotive refinishing. Packaged in a 16 fl‑oz aerosol can, it delivers a high‑gloss black finish ideal for quick‑touch‑up and final topcoat applications on collision repair panels.
Technical highlights include a recoat time of 20 minutes and coverage of up to 15 sq ft per can when applied at the recommended temperature range of 50–90 °F. The formulation adheres well to aluminum, e‑coat, primer, and wood substrates, providing a reliable bond without the need for extensive surface preparation. Shelf life is guaranteed for 2 years under proper storage conditions.
Because the product is classified with multiple GHS hazards (including flammable, carcinogenic, and aquatic toxicity), use of eye protection, gloves, protective clothing, and a respirator is required. Apply in a well‑ventilated area and follow the H‑statements (H222, H280, H315, H319, H336, H351, H361, H373) for safe handling.
