THEORETICAL COVERAGE:
Approx. 10-15 m2 / litre depending on surface porosity
DRYING TIME:

New or unpainted wood surfaces :
- Surface must be clean, dry and free from grease, paint, wax, dirt and other contaminants before painting
- Clean off mould, algae, lichen and moss with a wire brush
- Smooth bare wood surface to be painted using grade #60 or #80 sandpaper, working in the direction of the grain before dusting off
- If necessary, fill the wood grains with appropriate filler and smooth with sandpaper (grade #150 or #180)
- Wood must be relatively dry and moisture content should not exceed 20% based on Sovereign Moisture Master before painting.
- Allow the paint to dry thoroughly before applying next coat
- Should fibre be observed, dry sand lightly before subsequent coat
Sanding between individual coats is necessary. Use grade #360 or #400 for sanding topcoat
Previously Painted Wood Surfaces :
- If the previous paint film is in sound condition and without wax, smoothen it with sandpaper. Clean off and dry
- For old paint which is in sound condition and without wax, smoothen it with sandpaper. Clean off and dry
- Otherwise, remove all unstable paint film, dust, oil, wax and other foreign matters
- Particular care is necessary on previously waxed surfaces and thorough mechanical sanding is recommended to remove all wax. Presence of wax on substrates will affect the drying and adhesion of the paint coating
