• Remove all loose plaster with a scraper
• Make good any uneven areas with a suitable wood filler
• All unstable, flaking, peeling or powdery paint surfaces should be removed with a brush or scraper
• Oil paint surfaces must be lightly sanded back

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.

1. Stir the contents of the tin thoroughly before and periodically during use
2. Apply with a good quality synthetic brush, microfibre roller or spray applicator
3. For best results, apply 2 full, even coats across all surfaces
4. For porous surfaces, such as bare plaster, apply a coat of Lifestyle Emulsion thinned with water (four parts paint mixed with one part water)
5. Allow 8 hours drying time between coats
6. The final painted surface is fully wipeable after 10 days

Cleaning Equipment

Clean application tools immediately after use with warm water.

Maintenance
