Application Details

• Mixing: Stir well before use with a flat paddle to a homogenous consistency. Stir occasionally during use.
• Method: Brush, roller (use short nap roller - mohair).
• Thinning: ProGold Mineral Turpentine if required up to maximum 10%.
• Cleaning: ProGold Mineral Turpentine.

Application Conditions:

• Surface Temperature between 5°C and 40°C.
• Ambient Temperature between 5°C and 40°C.
• Relative Humidity between 10% and 85%.
• Ideally, apply when the temperature of the substrate is at least 2ºC above dew point and if possible away from direct sunlight.

 

Touch dry: 4 hours at 23°C. 

Recoating time: 16h at 23ºC.

Full cure: 7 – 21 day depending on weather conditions.

Note: higher temperatures will accelerate the drying times (approximately halved for every 10°C increase) whilst lower temperatures will retard the drying times (approximately doubled for every 10°C decrease.

Requirements: 2 coats minimum.

Surface Preparations
Surfaces must be sound, clean and dry (moisture level below 15%) before painting.

New Work:

Cement plaster:

• 1 coat Access Plaster Primer and 1 coat Prominent Select Universal Undercoat.

Redecorating:
It is advisable to test the compatibility of coatings when redecorating is involved, i.e. paint a small section and then check the adhesion after 24 hours by applying a strip of masking tape and attempting to rip the paint off.

Gloss enamel:

• Sand down to a matt finish, spot prime exposed metal with Prominent Rust Primer and apply 1 coat Prominent Select Universal Undercoat.

Sound matt emulsion paint:

• Sand to matt finish, clean with ProGold General Purpose Cleaner diluted 1:10 with water and abrasive, rinse with water, allow drying and apply directly.
