SEM 15303 Graphite Color Coat is a 12 fl. oz. aerosol finish formulated to deliver a durable, neutral graphite color for automotive trim, accessories, and detail touch-ups.

Designed for quick application and consistent coverage, this color coat from SEM provides a smooth, factory-style graphite appearance for plastic, metal, and trim parts. It comes in a convenient 12 fl. oz. aerosol can that’s easy to use for spot repairs, full-panel resprays, or custom projects. The product includes a 90-day warranty covering material and workmanship and is manufactured in China.

What surfaces will the SEM 15303 Graphite Color Coat adhere to?

This color coat was developed for common automotive surfaces and trim components. Proper surface preparation is essential to achieve long-lasting adhesion and a uniform finish.

  • Works on painted metal, plastic trim, and primed panels when surface is clean and scuffed.
  • Use compatible primers or adhesion promoters for difficult plastics and flexible parts.
  • Avoid bare, oily, or contaminated substrates without proper cleaning.

How should I apply the 12 fl. oz. aerosol for the best finish?

Apply in controlled, even passes while maintaining the recommended spray distance to prevent runs and ensure uniform coverage. Multiple light coats produce a smoother, more durable surface than one heavy coat.

  • Shake can vigorously for at least one minute after mixing balls move freely.
  • Hold can 8–12 inches from the surface and spray in steady, overlapping passes.
  • Allow light flash times between coats; follow label for recommended dry times before handling.

How durable and reliable is this graphite finish?

The SEM color coat is formulated for visual durability suitable for trim and accessory applications when correctly applied and topcoated if required. The product is backed by a 90-day warranty covering material and workmanship.

  • Provides a consistent graphite tone suited to OEM-style trim matches.
  • Topcoat or clear coat can improve chemical and abrasion resistance.
  • Warranty covers defects in material and workmanship for 90 days.

What should I know about safety, storage, and origin?

Use in a well-ventilated area and follow all label safety instructions for aerosol paints. Store cans upright in a cool, dry place away from heat sources and open flame. This SEM product is manufactured in China and should be handled per local regulations.

  • Wear appropriate respiratory and skin protection while spraying.
  • Keep away from sparks, open flames, and hot surfaces while storing or using.
  • Dispose of empty cans according to local hazardous-waste guidelines.

Who is this for: Automotive restorers, collision-repair technicians, detail shops, and DIY enthusiasts who need a compact, ready-to-spray graphite color for trim and small panels will find this 12 fl. oz. SEM color coat useful. It’s especially suited for spot repairs, sample matches, and projects where ease of use and consistent graphite tone are priorities. If you require enhanced chemical or UV resistance, consider pairing this coat with an appropriate clear or protective topcoat.

FAQ

Q: Can SEM 15303 be used on unpainted plastic?

A: Yes, with proper surface prep and an adhesion promoter or primer for flexible plastics to ensure reliable bonding.

Q: How long before the coated part can be handled?

A: Light handling is usually possible after the tack-free time on the label; full cure may require longer per product instructions.
