Application Instructions



Surface Preparation

Ensure surfaces are free from dust, dirt, and grease. Use Watco Bio-D for removing grease and oil from painted surfaces. If painting over an existing coating, abrade to remove any loose paint and ensure the remaining paint is well-bonded. Ensure the surface is completely dry before painting, with moisture content below 16%.



Painting

Mix the paint thoroughly before use. Apply with a brush or roller. The coating will dry in approximately 30 minutes. For best results, apply a second coat after 2 hours. Avoid scrubbing the new coating for seven days to allow full curing.



Post-Application Care

If applied above tiles on shower walls, avoid using the shower for up to 24 hours after application. Clean tools immediately after use with warm, soapy water.
