Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before starting, ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free of dust or grease. Apply a Light Grey Primer and Undercoat as the base layer; this is critical to ensure the true, deep tone of the Myrtle Green 168 is fully realized. If painting over previous darker colors, ensure two coats of primer are applied first. For care, keep the container tightly sealed in a cool, dry place when not in use. Clean brushes and tools immediately with appropriate solvents or water based on the specific finish type chosen.
