Setup, Compatibility & Care
Surface Preparation: Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free of loose paint, dust, or grease. Sand glossy surfaces lightly to promote better adhesion.
Application: Apply using a high-quality synthetic brush, roller, or spray equipment. Maintain a wet edge to avoid overlap marks.
Drying Time: The paint is quick-drying, but allow for sufficient curing time before exposing the surface to heavy wear or foot traffic.
Cleaning: As a water-based product, brushes and rollers can be cleaned with soap and warm water.
Maintenance: The cured finish is washable; use a soft, damp cloth with mild detergent for routine cleaning to maintain the luster.
