WHERE TO USE
Protection for properly prepared Wood, Vinyl, Aluminum, Fiber Cement
Siding, Metals, Steel, Brick, Masonry, Stucco and Fences.
PREPARATION & PRIME
Use on properly prepared and cleaned coated and uncoated Exterior
surfaces. Countersink nailheads, fill and sand smooth. Remove rust, loose
or peeling paint. Repair imperfections and sand smooth. Wash off dirt,
grease and chalk with detergent and/or powerwash. Remove mildew
stains with a mildew stain removing product. Clean and sand new or
weathered wood. Scuff sand or degloss smooth or glossy surfaces. Scuff
sand or etch metals. Rinse and allow to dry. Caulk windows, doors and
other openings. Allow new stucco, plaster and masonry to cure for 30
days before painting. Use MARQUEE Paint as a primer for repaired or
uncoated surfaces, including woods that contain tannins and heavily
stained areas (two primer coats required for redwood and cedar). Lock
in stains with the first primer coat; if necessary, apply a second primer
coat of MARQUEE Paint. For drastic color changes or when applying deep
colors denoted with a dagger (†) on the color chip, apply a tinted primer
coat of MARQUEE Paint, if needed.
APPLICATION
Apply product on dry substrates when air and surface temperatures are
between 35°-90° F (2°-32° C) and will remain between 35°-90° F
(2°-32° C) for at least 4 hours after applying. Allow paint film to dry for
at least 60 minutes prior to rain showers when temperatures are between
60°-70° F (15°-21° C) and 60-70% relative humidity.
Lower temperatures, higher humidity or deep colors may increase
dry time and/or rain resistance time.Stir paint occasionally. Intermix
containers of same product to ensure color and sheen uniformity. On
semi-smooth surfaces, use a high quality 3/8-1/2” nap roller cover, nylon/
polyester brush or an airless sprayer (.015 -.021” spray tip, 60 mesh
filter). On rough surfaces, use a high quality 3/4-1” nap roller cover. Do
not thin if using a roller or brush; however, if using a sprayer and thinning
is required, thin with water at a rate of no more than 1/2 pint per gallon.
On heavy stains and woods that contain tannins, allow 12-16 hours of dry
time between coats. After 4 weeks, cured paint film may be cleaned with
a mild, non-abrasive liquid detergent. Dry paint film is mildew resistant.
When applying to vinyl, color choice must be the same color or lighter
than the existing color. Do not use on floors.
