All surfaces must be thoroughly dry, clean and free of all loose dirt, grease, mould, surface chalk and loose or flaking paint. New timber surfaces should be sanded smooth and dusted down prior to priming. Fill nail holes, imperfections and cracks with a suitable filler, sand and dust off. Spot prime filled areas.

For hard set plaster surfaces use Dulux sealer binder or Precision High Opacity Stain Blocker as the prepcoat.

Roller, Brush & Spray:
Spray application not recommended for timber surfaces.
Stir contents thoroughly before and during use. Apply direct from the can. May be applied to dampened surfaces. If applied over dry, porous surfaces, dampen surface before applying.

Brush: Wet brushes with water prior to use to avoid clogging. Apply a full even coat direct from the container. Under hot conditions it may be necessary to thin with up to 100ml per litre of clean water.

Roller: Using a medium nap roller apply a full even coat direct from the container and finish by light parallel strokes with a dry roller. Airless/Conventional Spray: Suitable for application by all standard spray equipment. If necessary thin with up to 100ml per litre of water to aid atomisation.

Note: Spray application is not recommended for priming timber surfaces.

Clean brushes and rollers with water after use.

Unused paint: Do not pour leftover paint down the drain. Unwanted paint should be brushed out on newspaper and allowed to dry, and then disposed of via domestic waste collections. Empty paint containers: Leave empty paint containers open in a well-ventilated area to dry out. When dry, recycle the container via steel can recycling programs. Disposal of empty paint containers via domestic recycling programs may differ between local authorities. Check with your local council first. Do not reuse container unless thoroughly decontaminated.
