Application

Application

Before starting, have your PPE ready, as our paint is oil-based and will not wash off easily with soap and water.

Ensure you have good ventilation to allow vapour to escape; ventilation is also necessary to maintain drying times. Without air movement, the coating won’t dry properly.

Painting Over Existing Paint:

Step 1 - Preparation: Check the suitability of the product for the existing paint. We recommend trying a sample area first.

Step 2 - Clean and Abrade:

  • Ensure the existing paint is in good condition prior to painting, then lightly abrade to provide a key for good intercoat adhesion.
  • If there is flaking paint, it must be removed before painting.
  • Ensure the substrate is dry and clean of any dirt, oil or grease.

Step 3 - Prime: This step is down to personal preference. Depending on the condition of the existing paint or if you are changing a dark colour to a light one, you may want to add one coat of primer.

If the material you are painting is fibreglass or metal and is showing you will need to spot prime with the appropriate primer. If there is rust this will need removing and spot priming.

Step 4 - Topcoat: Once you have completed the previous steps, 12-24 hours after applying the primer, you can add your first coat of topcoat. Wait another 12-24 hours before applying the second coat.

Painting bare Wood, Concrete, Stone or Brick:

New concrete floors will need time to green. This generally is a period of 3-6 months from when the concrete floor is laid. We say 3-6 months as it depends on the thickness of the concrete and quality; it’s always best to ask the supplier and fitter of the concrete floor how long to wait until painting.

Never pre-seal concrete prior to painting, particularly with latex or PVC sealers, as paint will not adhere properly.

Step 1 - Clean and Prep: Ensure the substrate is dry and clean of any dirt, oil or grease. If there is any moisture in the substrate, it can cause delamination and lead to a loss of adhesion.

Power floated and smooth concrete floors will need abrading prior to painting.

Step 2 -First Coat: Thin the first coat by 20% with T0001 White Spirit to ensure the paint impregnates the concrete, this will act as the primer/sealer.

Step 3 - Top coat: 12-24 hours after applying the first coat, you can apply the second coat of topcoat. Be sure to stir the paint well before use.

Painting Bare Metal or Fibreglass.

Semi-gloss and Matt finishes have anti-corrosive properties, allowing them to be applied directly to metal. However, for complete protection, we recommend using a primer.

Step 1 - Clean and Prep: Ensure the substrate is dry and clean of any dirt, oil or grease. If there is any moisture on the substrate, it can cause delamination and lead to a loss of adhesion.

Step 2 - Prime:  

Metal - If there is rust this will need removing and then priming with our High Build Zinc Phosphate Metal primer. If the substrate is exposed to harsh environmental factors, you can prime it with either Zinc Rich or our two-pack epoxy primer systems for optimal protection

Fibreglass/GRP/Gel Coat - Apply one coat of our Single Pack Fibreglass primer, as the topcoat will not adhere directly.

Step 3 - Top coat: Wait 12-24 hours after applying the primer before applying the first coat of topcoat. Then, after another 12-24 hours, apply the second coat. Two coats of topcoat are recommended for optimal coverage. Be sure to stir the paint well before use.

Primers

Primers

Mild Steel: If you are painting mild steel, you will need our metal primer.

Fibreglass: If the fibreglass is bare, you will need a fibreglass primer. Use a two-pack epoxy fibreglass primer or single-pack fibreglass primer.

Galvanised Steel: After treating the galvanised steel with Mordant Solution (T-Wash), you will need our metal primer.

Etch Primer: Use one pack etch primer.

Aluminium: The suitable primer for aluminium is two-pack etch primer.

Wood, Concrete, Stone or Brick: No primer is required;These types of substrates are often porous, so we recommend thinning the first coat by 20% to ensure it impregnates the substrate, this will act as the primer/sealer. 

Plastic/UPVC: Use UPVC Primer or a two-in-one primer and topcoat.

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.

Paint mixers are available to purchase. Click here to buy one.

Spraying

Spraying

Ensure you have the correct RPE, to protect against atomised particles that are being generated when 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.
