Preparation
Always ensure the surface is clean, dry and free from anything that may affect adhesion.
- New wood - Apply one coat of Sandtex Trade Flexible Primer Undercoat.
- Greyed or weathered wood will need to be sanded back to a clean and smooth surface.
- Previously painted surfaces - Clean the surface and abrade with wet and dry abrasive paper to provide a key. Apply one coat of Sandtex Trade Flexible Primer Undercoat.
Application
We always recommend performing a test patch to the surface to be decorated to ensure you are happy with the finished results.
- Stir well and apply using a brush or roller.
- Apply evenly and liberally without overspreading.
- Apply 1-2 coats as needed allowing 16 hours between coats.
- Some strong colours may require an additional coat to ensure complete obliteration.
Do not apply when temperatures are likely to fall below 5°C or when relative humidity is above 80% during application or drying period.
