Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before starting, ensure the substrate is clean, dry, and free from loose dirt or debris. If the surface is painted, ensure the existing paint is sound before overcoating. Application should be performed using tools appropriate for solvent-based coatings, such as high-quality brushes or sprayers designed for heavy-duty liquids. Due to the nature of the product, always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) including respiratory protection and chemical-resistant gloves. Maintain good ventilation throughout the drying process. Once cured, the surface can be cleaned using standard gentle washing methods without compromising the integrity of the seal.
