PRODUCT APPLICATION
SURFACE PREPARATION
ALL SURFACES: Remove all dirt, grease, oil, salt and
chemical contaminants by washing the surface with a
commercial detergent, or other suitable cleaning method.
Mold and mildew must be cleaned with a chlorinated cleaner
or bleach solution. Rinse with fresh water and allow to
thoroughly dry.
STEEL: Scrape and wire brush or power tool clean to
remove loose rust, scale and deteriorated coatings. Use
7769 Rusty Metal Primer for sound rusted or clean metal
before application of a finish coat. 7780 Clean Metal Primer
is best for clean metal but may be used on sound rusted
metal as well.
PREVIOUSLY COATED: Previously coated surfaces must
be sound and in good condition. Smooth, hard, or glossy
finishes should be scarified by sanding to create a surface
profile. Farm Equipment Enamels are compatible with most
coatings, but a test patch is suggested.

WARNING! If you scrape, sand or remove old paint from any
surface, you may release lead paint dust. LEAD IS TOXIC.
EXPOSURE TO LEAD DUST CAN CAUSE SERIOUS
ILLNESS, SUCH AS BRAIN DAMAGE; ESPECIALLY IN
CHILDREN. PREGNANT WOMEN SHOULD ALSO AVOID
EXPOSURE. Wear a NIOSH approved respirator to control
lead exposure. Clean up carefully with a HEPA vacuum and
a wet mop. Before you start, find out how to protect yourself
and your family by contacting the National Lead Information
Hotline at 1-800-424-LEAD or log on to www.epa.gov/lead.
APPLICATION
Apply only when air and surface temperatures are between
50-90°F (10-32°C) and the relative humidity is below 85% to
ensure proper drying. Stir thoroughly before using. Do not
thin with gasoline, lacquer thinner or turpentine.
EQUIPMENT RECOMMENDATIONS
BRUSH: Use a good quality natural or synthetic bristle brush.
ROLLER: Use a good quality natural or polyester cover. Use
a short nap (¼”) roller for smooth surfaces, and a medium
nap (⅜”) roller for rough surfaces.
