Mixing

Mixing

Always stir any paint well before use, as our coatings are heavily pigmented and separation can easily occur. You may experience colour float; for example, a green paint can appear blue before mixing. This is one of the reasons why mixing your paint before use is essential.

  • Use a mixer on a slow-running drill or a palette knife on smaller cans to mix the paint. An egg whisk, screwdriver, or small stick that doesn’t reach the bottom of the can is insufficient for proper mixing.
  • Mixing should take place for 3-5 minutes.
  • If you are adding thinners; they will need to be added once stirred.
Spraying

Spraying

If applying with a pot gun:

Use a 1:2 to 1:4 tip setup and thin by 10% if required. More thinners may be added to achieve good atomisation and improve the flow of the paint, resulting in a better finish.

Air-assisted or Airless system:

Use an 11-13 thou tip (no thinners are usually required). If thinning is necessary, use around 10%. Set air and paint pressures until good atomisation is achieved and fingering (lines in the spray) have blended in.
