Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Surface Preparation: Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from loose material. Remove any existing flaking paint or wallpaper. Fill any large holes or cracks with a suitable filler and allow to dry.
  2. Application: Stir the Fillcoat5 thoroughly before use. Apply evenly with a roller, ensuring complete coverage. Avoid applying too much product at once to prevent runs or sags. For best results, use a roller with a medium pile.
  3. Drying Time: Allow the Fillcoat5 to dry completely before painting. Drying time can vary depending on environmental conditions but typically takes 2-4 hours.
  4. Compatibility: Fillcoat5 is compatible with most interior paints. Always test on a small, inconspicuous area first to ensure compatibility.
  5. Care: Store in a cool, dry place and reseal the tub tightly after each use to prevent drying out. Clean tools with water immediately after use.
