Preparation

PREVIOUSLY PAINTED SURFACES

• In Good Condition: Wash down with a suitable detergent, rinse with fresh water and allow to dry. Abrade with 280­ 320 grade (grit) paper and remove sanding dust.
• In Poor Condition: Remove all previous coatings and prime the substrate.

BARE WOOD/PLYWOOD: Sand smooth with 80-180 and then 280 grade paper. Remove sanding dust by brushing or dusting. Wipe down thoroughly with solvent and allow to dry completely. Ensure that residual sanding dust is removed before product application. Prime using an International Primer.

OILY WOODS e.g. Teak: Ensure that the surface is thoroughly degreased using a suitable solvent to ensure all oils are removed. Sand smooth with 80-180 and then 280 grade paper.
