Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

  1. Surface Preparation: Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from loose paint, dirt, or grease. Fill any holes or cracks.
  2. Priming: Prime the surface with a suitable primer, especially on new or previously painted surfaces.
  3. Application: Stir the paint thoroughly before use. Apply two coats of paint for the best finish, allowing the first coat to dry completely before applying the second.

Compatibility
