IDEAL APPLICATION TEMPERATURE Between 10°C and 30°C. Surface must be cool. Do not apply to hot surfaces. Avoid use in windy conditions. PREPARATION Surface should be clean, dry and free from contaminants such as oil, grease, dirt, dust and salt. Remove all loose and heavy rust scale and flaking paint with a wire brush, scraper or mechanical sander. Rinse with water or solvent to remove loose particles. Allow to dry. APPLICATION Before spraying, cover surrounding areas to protect from overspray. Shake can for at least 45 seconds AFTER the mixing ball begins to rattle. Shake the can occasionally during use. Hold the can upright approximately 20-25cm from the surface. Spray with a smooth sweeping motion. To prevent paint from sagging, apply multiple coats to saturate the rust, allowing 4-5 minutes between coats. Adjust red insert on nozzle to achieve desired spray pattern. Use horizontal setting to spray up and down and the vertical setting to spray left to right. (Refer to diagram on front). The rusted areas of the surface will turn predominantly black. COVERAGE Up to 2m2 per can (depending on the surface and amount of overspray). DRYING TIME Touch dry in 20 minutes (25°C). Recoat within 1 hour. Full dry in 24 hrs. Drying will be slower in cold and humid conditions, in the absence of ventilation or where heavy film build is applied.
