SURFACE PREPARATION:
All surfaces must be clean, free of dust, chalk, oil, grease,
wax, polish, mold and mildew stains, loose and peeling
paint, rust and all other foreign substances.
New Drywall: All drywall surfaces should be suciently
sanded smooth. Remove any remaining drywall dust prior
to priming. Allow all drywall compounds to be completely
dry prior to coating. Previously Painted Drywall: Remove
all loose and peeling paint and all other foreign substances.
Clean any dirt and grease by scrubbing the surface with
a detergent and water solution, followed by a thorough
rinsing with clean water. Set nails and ll holes, scratches,
and gouges with the appropriate spackling material and
let dry completely and sand smooth. Remove all dust with
a wiping cloth. Fill all gaps with a 100% acrylic, siliconized,
paintable caulking, and allow to completely dry prior to
coating. Glossy Surfaces: For maximum adhesion, sand the
surface thoroughly before coating.
New Wood: Remove mill glaze with sandpaper. Set nails and
ll holes, scratches, and gouges with the appropriate wood
ller and let dry completely. Remove all dust with a wiping
cloth. Fill all gaps with a 100% acrylic, siliconized, paintable
caulking, and allow to completely dry prior to coating.
Previously Painted Wood: Remove all loose and peeling
paint and all other foreign substances. Clean any dirt and
grease by scrubbing the surface with a detergent and water
solution, followed by a thorough rinsing with clean water. Set
nails and ll holes, scratches, and gouges with the appropriate
wood ller and let dry completely. Remove all dust with a tack
or wiping cloth. Fill all gaps with a 100% acrylic, siliconized,
paintable caulking, and allow to completely dry prior to
coating. Glossy Surfaces: For maximum adhesion, sand the
surface thoroughly before coating.
Wood: WARNING! Sanding or scraping pressure treated
lumber may be hazardous; wear appropriate protection.
New Plaster: New plaster should be thoroughly dried out
and cured for a minimum of 30 days before painting. When
cured, clean using a mixed solution of one part vinegar and
one part water to remove eorescence and neutralize.
Previously Painted Plaster: Remove all loose and peeling
paint and all other foreign substances. Clean any dirt and
grease by scrubbing the surface with a detergent and
water solution, followed by a thorough rinsing with clean
water. Set nails and ll holes, scratches, and gouges with
the appropriate spackling material and let dry completely
and sand smooth. Remove all dust with a tack or wiping
cloth. Fill all gaps with a 100% acrylic, siliconized, paintable
caulking, and allow to completely dry prior to coating.
Glossy Surfaces: For maximum adhesion, sand the surface
thoroughly before coating.
Stainblocking: After priming, test for stain bleed-through
by applying the topcoat to a small section. If the stain bleeds
through the topcoat, apply a second coat of primer and
test again before top-coating the entire area. If bleeding
continues, a longer dry time of the primer may be needed
before top-coating.
Masonry: All masonry surfaces must be cured at least 30
days before painting. The pH must be 10.0 or lower prior to
coating. Smooth masonry may require an adequate prole
for adhesion. For all other smooth trowel concrete, create a
prole using a product such as BEHR PREMIUM®
Concrete & Masonry Cleaner & Etcher No. 991 or with
mechanical means. Remove loose aggregate and debris
using a product such as BEHR PREMIUM
Concrete & Masonry Degreaser & Cleaner No. 990.
