This paint features a 40% sheen, which classifies it as a satin finish.
The paint is quick-drying, though specific recoat times can depend on ambient temperature and humidity levels.
Ensure you are using a high-quality synthetic brush and avoid over-working the paint once it begins to set.
Sand the underlying surface thoroughly before application to ensure it is perfectly smooth and flat.
Ensure the metal is properly primed and degreased before applying the first coat of Walpole 42.
Before application, ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust or grease. If the surface is previously painted, lightly sand it to improve adhesion, especially given the satin finish's tendency to reveal texture. Use high-quality brushes or rollers suited for water-based paints to achieve the best results. For care, simply wipe down the cured finish with a damp, non-abrasive cloth. Keep the container tightly sealed when not in use and store it in a cool, dry place to maintain the integrity of the water-based formula.
