i found that the temp is warm enough when the RPM looks "wet" once you brush it on - it brushes on granular if not warm enough.
Great tip !
I find it works good to have the heat gun in one hand and the RPM brush in the other. Use the heat as needed to keep the surface temp up so the product flows when applied. RPM goes on glossy which helps you verify you get complete coverage then dries to a satin finish. RPM can also be reheated once applied to blend in or remove excess product.
Using the heat gun for a quick blast( 2-3 seconds) into the RPM container will soften the product if you feel you need to apply a larger amount. We have found that heating the part works best for application so it flows when applied. Different metals retain heat differently ( a cast part with more mass vs a sheet metal part cool at differnt rates)
Does anyone have any non automotive uses for RPM?
