Note! Take care to ensure that the activator has dried, at least ten minutes, before painting.
- Paint the sensors the same color as the car. Use the recommended Volvo color. Paint a maximum of two coats. Protect the connections to prevent painting the contact surfaces.
Caution! Too many layers of paint may result in partial or complete malfunction.
