Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Surface Preparation: Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from loose paint, dirt, and grease. Fill any holes or cracks with a suitable filler and sand smooth.
  2. Priming: If painting over a previously painted surface, a primer may not be necessary unless the existing paint is glossy. For bare surfaces, apply a suitable primer.
  3. Application: Stir the paint thoroughly before use. Apply two coats for the best results, allowing the first coat to dry completely before applying the second.
