PAINT IT
BASECOAT: MATTE METALLIC
1. Cut in the edges rst. Use the 6” roller on a section about four feet across by the height of the surface.
2. While wet, use the 9” roller to paint the larger areas. Roll in an up and down motion, then lightly back roll
from the top to the bottom to help smooth the nish and orient the metallic particles. Leave a 2”
“wet edge” to work in the next section. Repeat this process until the entire surface is complete and let
dry for about 1/2 hour.
3. Apply a second coat and let dry for one to two hours. Depending on the color, you may need to apply a
third coat for solid coverage.
SEA SPONGE FINISH: SATIN METALLIC
4. Rinse the sea sponge mini roller with water and squeeze out any excess. Using Satin Metallic Paint,
randomly roll across the surface working in 4’ sections. While wet, shape the jersey cotton rag into a pad
and lightly tap the surface to atten any bubbles left from the roller. Repeat until entire surface is complete
and let dry.
5. Remove painter’s tape and masking paper from the surrounding areas.
You are done!
