• To create a frosted glass effect on interior glass and plastic, use Polyvine Glass Frosting

To get the best results, ensure surfaces to be painted are sound, clean, dry and free from all defective or poorly adhering material, such as rust, dirt, grease and wax.

Previously Painted Surfaces

• Thoroughly rub down previously painted surfaces, wipe off with a damp, lint-free cloth to remove all traces of sanding dust
• Special precautions should be taken during surface preparation of pre-1960s paint surfaces over wood and metal as they may contain harmful lead

Always do a test area before starting any project to assess product suitability, colour and final finish. Follow the manufacturer's instructions on the container at all times.

1. Stir the product thoroughly before use
2. Use a suitable container to mix colours in, if needed
3. Apply 2-3 full coats using a good quality synthetic brush or spray system
4. On porous surfaces dilute the first coat with 10% water
5. Wipe off any excess enamel paint as you go with a clean, lint-free cloth
6. Allow to dry for 1-2 hours

Application equipment can be cleaned using soap and water. Once cleaned, allow to dry naturally.
