Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Preparation is key for optimal performance. Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free from any loose material, dirt, or grease before application.
- Compatibility: Ideal for bare masonry surfaces including brick, render, and concrete. It can also be used on exterior stone and suitable for certain garden ornaments.
- Application: Stir paint thoroughly before use. Apply using a good quality brush or roller. Two coats are usually recommended for best results. For best coverage, apply in dry conditions, avoiding direct sunlight and rain.
- Bare Brick/Render: Apply one coat of Farrow & Ball Primary & Exterior Stone & Masonry, followed by two coats of Exterior Masonry.
- Previously Painted Surfaces: If the previous finish is sound, wipe down with a damp cloth and sugar soap substitute, rinse thoroughly, and allow to dry completely. Apply two coats of Exterior Masonry.
- Care: Clean tools and brushes immediately after use with water. For maintaining the painted surface, wash gently with a mild detergent and water using a soft cloth or sponge. Rinse thoroughly and allow to dry.
