- Remove any mould or mildew with a suitable fungicidal wash
- Timber at risk of decay or insect rot should be treated with a wood preserver
New Concrete & Masonry
- Must be allowed to cure for at least 30 days before painting
New or Bare Wood

Note: Special precautions should be taken during surface preparation of pre-1960 paint surfaces as they may contain harmful lead.
Application
Before applying we always recommend to test a small area of the surface to be treated to ensure you are happy with the finished results.
- Shake or stir well before application
- Apply using a synthetic bristle brush, roller or sprayer (for airless spraying, use a .017” tip and high-medium 2000-2500 PSI pressure)
- Ensure temperature is between 10° - 32°C
- Avoid working in direct sunlight, do not apply if wet weather is forecast
- Apply the first coat and allow to dry for 1 hour
- Apply a second coat, paint will fully cure in 7 days
- Normal application is 2 coats, however, an additional coat should be applied to areas of high exposure such as sills and fascia boards.
Note: Always follow the manufacturer's instructions found on the tin.
