Preparation
Before applying Coo-Var Tile and Melamine Primer, proper surface preparation is essential to ensure optimal performance:
- Thoroughly clean the surface to remove dirt, grease, soap residues, or any other contaminants. A clean surface is essential for proper adhesion.
- Lightly sand the surface using fine-grit sandpaper to create a slight texture. This step enhances adhesion and prepares the surface for better primer bonding.
- Wipe the sanded surface with a damp cloth to remove any sanding dust. Ensure the surface is completely dry before proceeding.
Application
- Stir the primer thoroughly before use to ensure an even consistency.
- Using a brush or roller, apply the primer evenly over the prepared surface, ensuring full coverage.
- Allow the primer to dry for at least 12 hours before applying a topcoat.
- Apply as per normal good painting practice.
- Do not apply when the temperature is below 7°C.
- In confined spaces, ensure adequate ventilation during both application and drying.
