Sandtex 1Coat Exterior Gloss 2.5L - White

For bare or weathered wood, it is recommended to use a suitable exterior wood primer and undercoat before applying the Sandtex 1Coat Exterior Gloss for best adhesion and durability.

No, an undercoat is not required if the surface has been previously painted with a similar type of paint and is in good condition. For bare wood or drastic color changes, priming is recommended.

This paint is ideal for exterior wood and suitably primed metal surfaces. It is specifically designed for refreshing previously painted woodwork.

Clean brushes and equipment immediately after use with a suitable solvent-based thinner, such as white spirit.

Coverage can vary depending on the surface porosity and application method, but typically one coat is sufficient. For detailed coverage rates, refer to the product tin or manufacturer's datasheet.

While it can be used indoors if good ventilation is provided due to its solvent-based nature, it is specifically formulated for exterior durability and protection. For interior use, consider a paint designed for indoor environments.

Drying times can vary. Generally, it is touch-dry in a few hours. However, full curing and recoating times will be longer and depend on temperature and humidity. Always check the product tin for specific drying information.

Stir the paint thoroughly. If necessary, thin slightly with a small amount of white spirit (refer to tin for maximum recommended dilution).

Apply thinner coats and avoid overloading the brush. Ensure the surface is not excessively absorbent.

Ensure paint is stirred well. Apply in a consistent direction and use a high-quality brush. For a smoother finish, light sanding between coats may be beneficial if a second coat is applied (though not usually required).

Ensure application is within recommended temperature and humidity ranges. Avoid applying too thickly. Solvent-based paints can take longer to cure fully in cold or damp conditions.
