Brush, Roller, Spray
Check the adhesion of old paint by cutting an 'X' through the film with a razor blade or trimming knife, press cellulose tape firmly across the cut and rip it off. If the old paint comes off with the tape it should be removed before painting.
Occasionally when dew or condensation forms on a newly dried film a slight milky deposit will be observed on the film. This is quite normal and does not impair the performance. Simply hose or wipe it off with a damp rag.
Do not paint at temperatures below 10 degrees or when the temperature may fall below 10 degrees during the drying period.
Do not apply to roofs or surfaces used for the collection of drinking water.
Caution - Check with your substrate manufacturer before painting colours of LRV<40
PRE-PRIMED TIMBER & ; PREVIOUSLY PAINTED SURFACES
Occasionally an apparently sound old paint will lose adhesion when recoated, particularly if the new paint is darker in colour. To avoid this, check the adhesion of the old paint by cutting an 'X' through a clean area of the film with a sharp knife, press cellulose tape firmly across the cut and rip it off. If the old paint comes off with the tape it should be removed before repainting. Scrape off all loose and flaking paint. Fill any cracks or holes with a suitable filler. Sand all surfaces to a flat finish and remove greyed timber. Dust off. Spot prime any bare areas with Dulux Timbacryl. Apply two generous coats of Dulux Timbacryl.
