Usage Instructions

Substrate Preparation

1. Surfaces must be clean, dry and free of dirt, grease, oil or water.
2. Repair cracks, breaks, open seams with a heavy sealer.
3. Prepare porous surfaces by priming with diluting 1:1 ratio with water, treat with fibre mesh before it dry.

Application Direction

1. Stir well before use.
2. Apply at the rate of 1.33 litre/m2 by brush, roller or soft bloom.
3. For best results apply two coats, with the first coat allowed to dry before applying the second coat at the right angles on the first coat.
4. Each coat should exceed 1 mm thickness and allow at least 4 hours for single coat to dry. Drying time may vary depending upon wet film thickness, temperature, humidity and air movement.
5. For reinforcement purpose, an open woven glass fiber may be incorporated onto uncured first coat and apply the second coat before it is completely dry.
6. All wet material, tools, and equipment may be cleaned with water. Rinse tools and equipment with water before use. Clean with water when wet, but with white spirit when dry.
7. Protect the coating surfaces from frost and rain until fully cured. The maximum durability is obtained if the coating is left 2-3 days for full curing before apply any protective coating on top.
