Surface Preparation
Recommended Substrate Conditions and Temperatures
Substrate conditions
- Previous coat must be dry and free from any contamination
Substrate Temperature and Application Conditions
- Substrate temperature during application and curing should be at least 3°C (5°F) above dew point
Application
Instructions for Use
- Stir well before use
- The temperature of the paint should preferably be above 15°C (59°F), otherwise extra thinner may be required to obtain application viscosity
- Adding too much thinner results in reduced sag resistance
- Adequate ventilation must be maintained during application and curing (please refer to information sheet 1433 and information sheet 1434)

Safety Precautions
- For paint and recommended thinners, see information sheets information sheet 1430, information sheet 1431 and the relevant Material Safety Data Sheets in the attachments section above
- This is a solvent-borne paint and care should be taken to avoid inhalation of spray mist or vapour, as well as contact between the wet paint and exposed skin or eyes
