Wood, Concrete, Stone or Brick - No primer required 1st coat will prime and seal. You will find that these kind of substrates will be porous, we recommend that on your first coat thin by 20% to ensure it impregnates the substrate. Then after 12-24 hours apply the second coat un thinned.


Always stir paint before using

Make sure you use a broom stick, mixer on a slow running drill or pallet knife to mix and mixing should take place for 3-5 mins to ensure all the content is properly mixed together to avoid colour and or drying problems.

As our coatings are heavily pigmented separation can easily occur and you can have colour float, for example a green paint can seem blue before mixing, this is one of the reasons mixing your paint before use is essential.

Spray Gun Advice

If applying with a pot gun

If applying with a pot gun

Use a 1:4 to 1:8 tip set up thinning by 10% if required.

More thinners may be added to achieve good atomization.

If applying with an airassisted or airassisted airless system Use a 13-15 thou tip no thinners usually required. If thinning is necessary use around 10%
