Metal display part guide
Metal models and display stands need a neat finish without heavy edges, runs or rough primer marks. This guide uses professional cleaning, sanding, epoxy primer and 2K colour options for a small object that has to look clean from close range.
Mipa silicone remover liquid or spray removes grease, fingerprints and polishing residue before the surface is keyed.
MP Sanding Pad helps create a uniform matt key on flat faces, corners and shaped details without harsh grinding marks.
Mipa EP Primer Surfacer with Mipa EP hardener E 5 and Mipa 2K Thinner Short V 10 prepares steel, aluminium and zinc before the decorative colour coat.
Mipa 2K-EP Primer Filler Spray incl. hardener gives small display pieces a practical 2K primer option when spray gun use is not ideal.
Mipa OC Ready Mixed Tones RM with Mipa 2K-HS Hardener HS 10 short and Mipa 2K Thinner Short V 10 gives the stand a professional colour finish.
Mipa 2K Prefilled Spray is suited to a small custom colour job where an activated 2K aerosol is the most efficient format.
Remove grease and check welds, corners and old paint so defects are corrected before primer.
Use the sanding pad across every visible face and soften sharp edges that might lose paint first.
Apply EP Primer Surfacer or the 2K epoxy primer aerosol in controlled coats, then allow the surface to reach the correct stage for colour.
Use Mipa OC or a filled 2K aerosol in light passes, aiming for clean coverage without burying fine detail.
Place the stand where dust and fingerprints cannot touch it until the coating is ready for handling.
The EP primer and OC colour method gives the cleanest professional path for a stand that will be seen close up.
Mipa 2K Prefilled Spray is useful when the piece is small, colour matched and easier to spray as an aerosol.
Small models and stands can lose crisp edges under too much coating, so build coverage gradually.
Mount the part on a temporary wire, screw or stand so the visible faces can be sprayed without touching fresh paint.
