Preparation
To get the best results, ensure surfaces to be coated are sound, clean, dry and free from all defective or poorly adhering material, dirt, grease and dust.
- Special precautions should be taken during surface preparation of pre-1960s paint surfaces over wood and metal as they may contain harmful lead
- Any residual wallpaper adhesive should be removed using a suitable wallpaper stripper
- Cover any stains using Zinsser Cover Stain
- Sand any spackled areas or skim coated surfaces using 100 grit sandpaper
Application
Always do a test area before starting any project to assess product suitability and final finish. Follow the manufacturer's instructions on the tin at all times. Does not require thinning.
Only apply at temperatures ranging between 10°C and 32°C and a relative humidity of no more than 85%.
- Stir thoroughly before and periodically during use
- Apply evenly and consistently, using a good quality synthetic bristle brush with flagged tips, microfibre roller or spray gun
- Work from the bottom to the top on vertical surfaces to avoid product from running down the surface

- If using an airless sprayer, use tip size 0.011 - 0.013 at pressure 800 - 1200 psi
