New metal should be sandblasted to a commercial blast (SSPC-SP6). Results are dependent on extent of cleaning of surface. When priming new metal use this product direct to metal. Galvanized metal should be primed with galvanized metal primer. Prime aluminum with this product. Previously Painted surfaces: All surfaces to be coated should be clean, free of dirt, grease, oil, dust, wax, mildew, rust, water soluble materials or peeling paint. Glossy surfaces must be dulled by sanding prior painting. Remove loose paint by scraping. Sanding dust must be removed prior to paint application. Wash to remove contaminants. Rinse thoroughly with water and allow drying. Mildew must be removed by washing 16 oz. Liquid bleach and 2 oz. Non-ammoniated liquid detergent per gallon of water. Rinse with water and allow drying for 24 hours.

Stir thoroughly with lifting motion until uniform mixture is obtained. Stir occasionally during use. For best results use a high quality natural bristle brush. Roller covers should be a short nap mohair or similar type professional cover. Paint can also be sprayed. Do not apply if surface or air temperature is below 45 degrees Farenheit or above 95 degrees Farenheit. DO NOT THIN. Prime the entire surface to ensure a uniform appearance of the top coat. After priming, test for bleed through by applying the top coat to a small area. If the stain bleeds through the top coat, apply a second coat of primer and test again before top coating the entire surface. If bleeding continues, a longer time is needed before top coating. This product is intended to be used directly form can. Tools and equipment should be cleaned with mineral spirits.

This will cover approximately 375-425 SQ. FEET (34.9-39.5 SQUARE METERS) gallons depending on porosity and texture of surface and application method. Uniformity of color is dependent on batch consistency. Alkyd or oil based enamels may yellow in time in the absence of light especially sunlight. Use two coats for best results.

Under normal conditions temperature of 77 degrees Fahrenheit, dries to touch in 6 hours. And can be recoated overnight, with light sanding between coats. Fully cures in approximately 7-10 days depending on environmental conditions.

Clean equipment immediately with mineral spirits or VM&P Naphtha flushing spray equipment at noon break, with a thorough cleaning at the end of the work day, is a good work practice. WORK PRACTICE. USE COMPLETELY OR DISPOSE OF PROPERLY. An empty container with product residue may still be flammable: follow all hazard statements until it has been disposed of properly. This product contains organic solvents which may cause adverse effects to the environment if handled improperly. Save unused product for touch up purposed or a household hazardous waste collection program. Dry empty containers may be recycled in a can recycling program. Local disposal requirement may vary; consult your sanitation department or state designated environmental agency for more information on disposal options. CONTAINS: MINERAL SPIRITS DANGER: COMBUSTIBLE HARMFUL OR FATAL IF SWALLOWED MAY CAUSE EYE, SKIN, NOSE AND THROAT IRRITATION.

FIRST AID: If affected by inhalation of vapors or spray mist, remove to fresh air. In case of eye contact, flush immediately with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes and call a physician; for skin contact, wash thoroughly with soap and water. In case of ingestion-DO NOT INDUCE VOMITTING, get professional medical help immediately. IN CASE OF FIRE: Use Foam, CO (2) dry chemical or water fog. IN CASE OF SPILL: Absorb with inert material and dispose of as specified under "CLEAN UP" NOTE: All paints can vary slightly from batch to batch. Be sure to use one batch for the entire job or box different batches together to eliminate problems. Never stop in the middle of a wall, ceiling or side of a house.

NOTICE: Repeated and prolonged exposure to solvents may lead to permanent brain and nervous system damage. Eye watering, headaches, nausea, dizziness and loss of coordination are signs that solvent levels are too high. Intentional misuse by deliberately concentrating and inhaling the contents may be harmful or fatal. Keep away for heat, spark and flame. VAPORS MAY CAUSE FLASH FIRE. Use only with adequate ventilation. Do not breathe vapors spray mist or sanding suds. Avoid contact with eyes and prolonged or repeated contact with skin. Wear eye protection and gloves. To avoid breathing vapors or spray mist, open window and doors or use other means to ensure fresh air entry during application and drying. If you experience eye watering, headaches or dizziness, increase fresh airs of ear a properly fitted vapor/particulate respirator approved by NIOSH for use with paints or leave the area. In all cases follow respirator manufacturer's directions for respirator use. Close container after each use.
