Glossy Surfaces: For maximum adhesion, sand the surface
thoroughly to provide a rough surface before coating.
WARNING! If you scrape, sand or remove old paint, you
may release lead 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, nd out how to protect
yourself and your family by contacting the National Lead
Information Center at 1-800-424-LEAD or log on to www.

CLEANUP/DISPOSAL:
Clean all tools and equipment with clean water. Clean
all tools and equipment with warm, soapy water. Do not
dispose of this product down a drain. If spilled, contain
material and remove with an inert absorbent. Dispose of
contaminated absorbent, container and unused product
in accordance with all current federal, state and local
regulations. For recycling or disposal of empty containers,
unused product and soiled rags, contact your household
refuse collection service.
CAUTIONS/LIMITATIONS:
• Protect from freezing.
• Do not use on oors.
• For best results, apply when air, material and surface
temperatures are between 35°F and 90°F. When the air
temperature is at 35°F, substrates may be colder; prior to
painting, check to be sure the air, surface, and material
temperatures are above 35°F and at least 5°F above the
dew point. Avoid using if rain or snow is expected within
2-3 hours. Do not apply at air or surface temperatures
below 35°F or when air or surface temperatures may
drop below 35°F within 48 hours. Do not apply in direct
sunlight. Temperatures above 90°F can cause the paint to
dry too fast.
• Allow 4 weeks before washing or cleaning for full cure.
• Shelf life under normal conditions is 2 years unopened.
GENERAL INFORMATION:
CAUTION IRRITANT MAY CAUSE EYE, NOSE AND THROAT
IRRITATION. AVOID CONTACT WITH SKIN AND EYES AND
AVOID BREATHING OF VAPORS AND SPRAY MIST. WEAR EYE
PROTECTION AND PROTECTIVE CLOTHING. USE ONLY WITH
ADEQUATE VENTILATION. To avoid breathing vapors and
spray mist, open windows and doors or use other means to
ensure fresh air entry during application and drying. If you
experience eye watering, headaches or dizziness, increase
fresh air. If properly used, a respirator (NIOSH approved for
organic vapor with P series particulate pre-lter) may oer
additional protection; obtain professional advice before
using. A dust mask does not provide protection against
vapors. Avoid contact with eyes and skin. Wash thoroughly
after handling. Close container after each use.
FIRST AID: If you experience diculty in breathing, leave the
area to obtain fresh air. If continued diculty is experienced,
get medical assistance immediately. In case of eye contact,
ush immediately with plenty of water for at least 20
minutes and get medical attention; for skin, wash thoroughly
with soap and water. If swallowed, get medical attention
immediately.
CAUTION: KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN – DO NOT
TAKE INTERNALLY.
