Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup & Application

Preparation: Ensure the wood surface is clean and free from loose dirt, flaking paint, or mildew. While it can be applied to damp wood, for best results, the wood should be relatively clean.
Stirring: Stir the paint thoroughly before and during use to ensure the color is evenly mixed.
Application: Apply using a brush or a spray gun. For brush application, use long, even strokes along the grain of the wood. For spray application, follow the sprayer manufacturer's instructions, ensuring an even coat.
Coats: For optimal protection and color, apply multiple coats if necessary, allowing 1 hour between coats for drying. A single coat may be sufficient depending on the desired finish and condition of the wood.
Drying Time: The paint is touch dry in 1 hour. Full cure time may vary depending on environmental conditions.

Compatibility

Wood Types: This paint is compatible with all exterior rough sawn and smooth planed wood surfaces. This includes garden fences, sheds, pergolas, and other timber structures.
Previously Treated Wood: Can be applied over most previously treated wood provided the surface is clean and sound. A patch test in an inconspicuous area is always recommended to ensure compatibility with existing finishes.

Care & Maintenance

Tool Cleaning: Clean brushes and spray equipment immediately after use with warm, soapy water.
Storage: Store the paint in a cool, dry place, away from frost and direct sunlight. Ensure the lid is tightly sealed.
Surface Care: Once applied, the paint itself provides the protective layer. No specific ongoing care for the painted surface is typically required beyond general cleaning if it gets dirty.
