Uneven finish or brush marks

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Surface Preparation: Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free from grease, oil, and other contaminants. Remove any loose rust or scale. For best adhesion, a light abrasion of the surface may be beneficial, followed by thorough cleaning.
Compatibility: This paint is specifically designed for use on galvanized steel and aluminium. Test on a small, inconspicuous area if considering use on other metal types or previously painted surfaces.
Application: Apply using a brush, roller, or spray. Stir the paint thoroughly before and during use. Apply in conditions free from excessive dust. Avoid application in temperatures below 10°C or above 30°C, and when humidity is very high.
