HOW TO USE

  • Usage
    Ideal for new drywall. Apply to wallboard, drywall, tape joints, walls and under latex or oil-base paint.
  • Prep
    Surface should be clean, dry and dull. Glossy surfaces should be dulled. Thoroughly clean the surface and remove all dirt, dust, chalk, rust, grease, wax, mildew and peeling paint and allow to dry. See technical data page for additional surface prep.
  • Application
    Paint only when surface and air temperatures are 50–90 °F (10 – 32 ºC). Use paint paddle or mixing blade to stir paint thoroughly, bringing pigments to the top of the can. Brush: Use a premium quality polyester brush. Roller: Use a premium quality polyester roller with 1/2 to ¾-inch nap. Airless Spray: Thinning is not usually necessary. Use 2000 PSI with a 0.015 to 0.021 tip. For airless spray, thin with up to 8 ounces of water per gallon – only if paint is too thick for sprayer.
