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 household ammonia and water solution, appropriate 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. Remove existing stains by washing, sanding, scraping, etc.Countersink exposed nail heads, spot prime and fill all nail holes and gouges with Ready-Patch spackling compound or equally suitable material.
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.
CONCRETE & MASONRY
Newconcrete, masonry and related surfaces must be cured at least 30 days before painting. All existing mold and mildew must be removed before painting. To effectively kill mold and mildew and remove dirt and chalky paint residue, clean surfaces with JOMAX House Cleaner and Mildew Killer. A solution of one cup household bleach per gallon of water may also be used. Allow solution to remain on surface at least 10 minutes. Rinse with water and allow to dry.
KNOTS/SAP STREAKS
Spot prime knots and sap streaks with B-I-N Primer Sealer. Knots on new pine should be spot primed with one of Bulls Eye Amber Shellac. APPLICATION Two coats are required for proper performance and mold & mildew-proof resistance. Apply only when air, material, and surface temperatures are between 50-90ºF (10-32ºC) and the relative humidity is below 80%. Thoroughly mix to ensure any settled pigment is re-dispersed before using. Apply with a synthetic (nylon, polyester or blend) bristle brush, roller, pad applicator or airless sprayer. Follow manufacturer's instructions when using spray equipment. For airless spraying use a 0.017" tip at 2000 to 2600 psi. Wear NIOSH approved respirator and provide adequate ventilation.
THINNING
Perma-White is formulated to be used without thinning. If thinning is necessary (conventional spray applications), add no more than 10% by volume of fresh water
LIMITATIONS
Perma-White Mold & Mildew-Proof Exterior Paint is not intended for application to interior floors or exterior floors or decks or any surface subject to
immersion or prolonged contact with water.
TINTING
Perma-White is bright white but may be tinted to off-white, pastel or medium colors with a maximum of
4 ounces of universal colorant per gallon. Start with 75% of the tinting formula for a given color and adjust if necessary. Multiple containers of tinted paint should be intermixed (boxed) to ensure color uniformity. Shake or stir well before using.
