Setup, Compatibility & Care
Surface Preparation
Proper preparation is crucial for achieving a long-lasting finish:
- Clean: Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dirt, grease, and loose material. Use a suitable exterior cleaner if necessary.
- Smooth: Sand down any rough spots or flaking paint to create a smooth, even surface. Wipe away dust with a damp cloth and allow to dry.
- Prime: For bare wood or metal, or if there are areas of bare substrate, it is recommended to use an appropriate exterior primer to ensure optimal adhesion and durability.
Application
- Stir the paint thoroughly before and during use.
- Apply with a good quality brush or roller.
- Apply two coats for best results, allowing adequate drying time between coats.
- Avoid painting in direct sunlight, extreme heat, or when rain is expected.
Compatibility
- Exterior Surfaces: Specifically designed for exterior wood, metal, and uPVC.
- Not Recommended For: Interior surfaces or floors.
Care & Maintenance
- Clean painted surfaces periodically with a mild detergent and water to remove dirt buildup.
- Store leftover paint in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and frost.
- Ensure the lid is tightly sealed to prevent the paint from drying out.
