-All surfaces must be clean, free of dust, chalk, oil, mold and mildew, loose peeling paint, rust and all other foreign substances.

APPLICATION

-Airless spray – .015-.021 tip / 60 mesh filter
-Prime entire surface to ensure a uniform appearance of the topcoat.
-Use product when painting surface and air temperatures are between 35°F (2°C) and 90°F (32°C).
-Coverage : 300-400 sq. ft. (28-37 m2) per gallon depending on application method and surface porosity.
