How Do I Paint GoCode Trim Pieces?

Paint GoCode trim in three steps: clean the pieces with a foaming prep cleaner and microfiber cloth, spray on an adhesion promoter, then apply your paint in even coats. Let the adhesion promoter cure for 5 to 10 minutes before painting, and wait 3 to 5 minutes between coats.

Before You Start

  • Kit: All GoCode trim pieces

  • Paint color: SEM Ultra Black shown in the video

Tools & Materials

  • Foaming prep cleaner

  • Microfiber cloth

  • Adhesion promoter

  • Matte spray paint (black shown)

Painting Instructions

  1. Clean the trim
    Spray the pieces with foaming prep cleaner and wipe them down with a microfiber cloth. Let them dry for a moment before moving on.

  2. Apply adhesion promoter
    Give the can a shake and spray from about 10 inches away for an even coat. The whole surface should look glossy and wet. Let it sit for about 10 minutes.

  3. Check that it has cured
    Touch an inconspicuous spot. It should feel dry to the touch before you paint.

  4. Spray the first coat
    Spray the paint the way you would any other spray paint, using long, even strokes.

  5. Add a second coat
    Wait about 5 minutes after the first coat, then apply another.

  6. Let it cure
    Let the trim cure overnight before handling it.

*Note: One can of paint covers about two coats of a full trim kit. One can of adhesion promoter lasts about one coat of 3-4 full kits.
