Usage Guidelines

While most of our customers have some experience with applying these pigments, we understand that everyone has to start somewhere. If this is your first time, we've put together some basic guidelines to help you achieve the best results.

Applying luminous paint to a watch dial and hands requires precision and careful handling for an even, long-lasting finish. Here’s a step-by-step guide:

How to Apply Luminous Paint to Watch Dials and Hands

Preparation

Gather Your Tools

To ensure a smooth and precise application, prepare the following:

• Fine-tipped brushes – For detailed application
• Steady work surface – Prevents unwanted movement
• Loupe or magnifying glass – Enhances visibility
• Tweezers – For handling small components
• Gloves – Prevents oils from affecting paint adhesion
• Protective eyewear – Shields eyes from fine particles

Create a Dust-Free Workspace

Dust can easily settle on wet paint, so work in a clean and stable area to ensure a flawless finish.

Wear Gloves

Avoid transferring skin oils to the dial and hands, as these can interfere with the paint's adhesion.

Disassembling the Watch

Remove the Dial and Hands

Carefully detach the dial and hands from the movement using:

• Tweezers or a hand-removal tool to prevent bending or damage

Mixing the Luminous Paint

Combine Pigment and Solvent

• Mix luminous pigment with a compatible solvent
• Aim for a paste-like consistency – too much solvent can make the paint too thin

Test for Proper Consistency

Before applying, test on a spare metal or plastic piece to ensure the paint is smooth and not too runny.

Applying Luminous Paint

On Dial Markers

• Use a fine brush or toothpick to apply a small, even amount to each marker
• Work slowly to maintain precision

On Watch Hands

• Apply a thin, even coat
• Ensure the paint stays within the intended area

Multiple Coats (Optional)

For a brighter glow, apply two to three thin coats, letting each layer dry completely before adding the next.

Drying and Curing

Let the Paint Dry Fully

Luminous paint requires several hours to dry and cure properly.

Avoid Handling During Curing

Touching the components too soon can cause smudging or uneven finish. Keep them in a stable, dust-free environment.

Reassembly

Carefully Reinstall the Dial and Hands

Once fully cured, reassemble the watch with care to avoid:

• Scratching the painted areas
• Damaging the hands or dial

Applying luminous paint can be challenging due to its delicate and detailed nature, so take your time to achieve an even finish.

    *Some countries are notoriously slow to process goods on arrival, including Israel, Hong Kong, Macau, Mexico, South Africa, and some South American countries. Significant delays can also occur in other countries in Africa. For time-sensitive deliveries, we recommend using UPS, DHL, or FedEx.

    All shipping estimates exclude Saturdays and Sundays.

    While we strive to deliver within the above timeframes, they are guides, and delivery cannot be guaranteed. We are not responsible for delays caused by couriers or any national postal service. If your goods are not delivered within the estimated time, please contact us at admin@mwc.watch, and we will do our best to resolve the issue promptly. We are not liable for any loss caused by late delivery.

    Our delivery charges cover the cost of shipping to you but do not include import charges and administration fees to clear the goods when entering your country if applicable.

    It is the purchaser's responsibility to understand that charges may be levied and to pay all subsequent import taxes and duties on goods shipped to their country. If items are returned to MWC due to rejected payment, subsequent charges incurred (such as import duty and processing costs) will be deducted from any refund issued. For more information, please contact accounts@mwc-distribution.com

    If you need to clarify any details regarding local taxes for your location, please contact us before placing an order. For clarification, goods shipped to the EU can be dispatched from our EU location if ordered at https://mwc.eu/, and we also have a dedicated UK shipping center at https://mwcwatches.co.uk/. In the United States, orders under $800 do not incur taxes or fees. In Australia, orders up to AU$1000 are tax-free.

    We do not accept liability for goods lost after delivery to a PO Box. We reserve the right to cancel orders where the delivery address is a PO Box. Similarly, we do not accept liability for goods lost after confirmed delivery to APO or BFPO locations.

    Customer Notification: It is the customer's responsibility to notify us if goods are not received within 21 days of the estimated delivery date. If no notification is made within this period, the buyer is deemed to have received the goods.

    Safe Place Deliveries

    Some delivery companies allow for delivery without a signature, leaving the item in a "safe place" (e.g., shed, garage, porch). If you choose this option, it is at your own risk. We initially send items by a secure service requiring a signature or proof of delivery. Using a "safe place" increases the risk of theft. We advise ensuring deliveries require a signature to ensure safe receipt.

    Failed Deliveries

    If an item is refused and returned to us, we will refund the order less the outbound and inbound shipping charges once the item is received back at our packing and shipping center. For business locations, please notify the receiving personnel of the expected delivery to avoid refusals. Usually, we will be notified of delivery issues and will email you for instructions. It is important to act quickly to avoid return and associated costs.
