Extended Information:
COVERAGE Approximately 400 sq.ft./gal.(9.8 m2/l) depending on application method and surface porosity. SURFACE PREPARATION Surfaces should be clean, dry, sound and free of any contamination, mildew, rust or unsound coatings that may interfere with adhesion. Remove loosely adhered or unsound coatings. Sand any remaining paint film edges smooth. If unsure of cleanliness, always wash surface with household ammonia and water solution, appropriate cleaning solution or solvent (do not use TSP as a cleaner). Rinse the surface thoroughly and allow to dry before application of the primer. Spot prime knots and sap streaks with Zinsser B-I-N Primer/Sealer. 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.
LIMITATIONS Bulls-EyeZero is not recommended for applications to floors, decks, roof surfaces or any surface subject to immersion or prolonged contact with water. APPLICATION
Apply only when air, material, and surface temperatures are between 50-85ºF (10-29ºC) and the relative humidity is below 85%. Thoroughly mix 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 finishes.For best results, prime entire surface before painting. Apply with a synthetic (nylon, polyester or blend) bristle brush, roller, or airless sprayer. Follow manufacturer's instructions when using spray equipment. For airless spraying use a .017" tip at 2000 to 2500 psi. Wear NIOSH approved respirator and provide adequate ventilation. THINNING Bulls-Eye Zero is formulated to be used without thinning. If thinning is necessary, add no more than 10 fluid ounces of clean water per gallon and mix thoroughly. Note that excessive thinning will hinder stain blocking properties. TINTING
Bulls-Eye Water-Base may be tinted with up to 2 ounces of universal colorant per gallon.Tinting the primer toward the color of the topcoat helps hide in one coat. For mid or deep tone colors use Bulls-Eye 1-2-3 Deep Tint. Shake or stir well before using. DRY TIME
Dries to the touch in 30 minutes, can be recoated in 1 hour. Lower temperatures, higher humidity, and the addition of tint will prolong dry and cure time. Allow more time at cooler temperatures. CLEAN-UP
Clean up spills and paint drips with detergent and warm water. Wipe up splatters before they dry. If spills or drips have dried, use denatured alcohol or ammoniated detergent to soften and remove primer. Wash application tools in detergent and warm water immediately use. Follow equipment manufacturer’s directions to clean spray equipment. Dispose of unused or unwanted product in accordance with local laws regulating water-based coatings.
