Extended Information:
SURFACE PREPARATION Surfaces should be clean, dry, sound and free of dust, dirt, excessive chalky material, grime, grease, oil, wax, mildew, wallpaper, adhesive or any contamination that may interfere with adhesion. If unsure of cleanliness, always wash surface with an appropriate ammoniated cleaning solution or solvent (do not use TSP as a cleaner). Remove any peeling and/or unsound coatings. Sand any remaining paint film edges smooth with the surface. Lightly sand exposed exterior wood with 80 to 100 grit sandpaper to remove loose or weathered wood fibers and mill glaze. When priming over stained areas, first attempt to remove as much of the stain as possible by washing, sanding, scraping, etc. Bare wood that has been exposed for more than 4 weeks should be lightly sanded or abraded to remove weathered wood fibers. Remove exterior mold & mildew with Zinsser Jomax® Mildew Killer and House Cleaner. Remove interior mold and before painting with a solution of one cup household bleach per gallon of water or a quality mildew cleaner. Rinse well and allow surface to dry completely before priming. Countersink exposed nail heads, spot prime and fill all nail holes and gouges with Zinsser Ready Patch®packling compound. Wire brush rusty areas. Spot prime knots and sap streaks with B-I-N® Primer-Sealer before whole surface priming with Cover-Stain®High Base.
WARNING!
If you scrape, sand or remove old paint, you may release lead dust. LEAD IS TOXIC. EXPOSURE TO LEAD DUST CAN CAUSE SERIOUS ILLNESS, SUCH AS BRAIN DAMAGE, ESPECIALLY IN CHILDREN. PREGNANT WOMEN SHOULD ALSO AVOID EXPOSURE. Wear a NIOSH-Approved respirator to control lead exposure. Clean up carefully with a HEPA vacuum and a wet mop. Before you start, find out how to protect yourself and your family by contacting the National
Lead Information Hotline at 1-800-424-LEAD or log on to www.epa.gov/lead. MIXING Brush Goods - Mix thoroughly to ensure any settled pigment is re-dispersed. DO NOT THIN.
APPLICATION Apply only when air, material, and surface temperatures are between 50-90ÂşF (10-32ÂşC) and the surface temperature is at least 5ÂşF (3ÂşC) above the dew point. The relative humidity should not be greater than 85%.
Brush Goods - Mix thoroughly to ensure any settled
pigment is re-dispersed before using. In most cases only one coat is necessary to prime most surfaces. If excessive absorption occurs over very porous substrates a second coat may be necessary. Spot priming is recommended only under high-hiding topcoat paints. For best results, prime entire surface before painting. Apply with a natural or synthetic bristle brush, roller, pad or sprayer. Follow manufacturer's instructions when using spray equipment.
Airless spraying - use a .017" tip at 2000 to 2500 psi.
Aerosol - Shake can vigorously for one minute after the
mixing ball begins to rattle. If mixing ball fails to rattle DO NOT STRIKE CAN. Contact Rust-Oleum. Shake often during use. Hold can upright 10-16” from surface and spray in a steady back-and-forth motion, slightly overlapping each stroke. Keep the can the same distance from the surface. Keep the can in motion while spraying. Apply two or more light coats a few minutes apart to avoid drips and runs. Do not use near open flame.
CLEAN-UP
Brush Goods - Clean up spills and paint drips with warm water and liquid detergent. Wipe up splatters before they dry. Follow manufacturer’s directions to clean spray equipment. Dispose of unused or unwanted product in accordance with local laws regulating solvent-based coatings.
Aerosol - Wipe off tip before storing. Clean-up wet paint
with xylene or mineral spirits. Properly discard empty container. Do not burn or place in home trash compactor. If the valve clogs, twist and pull off spray tip and rinse in a solvent such as mineral spirits. Do not insert any object into can valve opening. Practical Coverage Aerosol - 10-12 sq.ft./can(0.9-1.1 m2) Brush Goods - 450 sq.ft./gal. (11.1m2/l) non-porous 350 sq.ft./gal. (8.6 m2/l) porous
