<h3>Preparation</h3>
<p>Surfaces must be clean, dry and free from loose and flaking material, dirt, grease etc. Repairs should be carried out prior to painting. Areas contaminated with fungal or algal growth should be treated with a proprietary fungicidal wash or with 25% household bleach before painting. Surfaces previously treated with gloss paint should be lightly abraded before painting.</p>
<h3> Application</h3>
<p>Stir any surface liquid back into the paint before use. May be applied without thinning by brush, roller or airless spray. Apply 1 or 2 coats as required.</p>
<h3> Clean up</h3>
<p> Equipment should be cleaned with white spirit immediately after use.</p>
<h3> Precautions</h3>
<p>Always read the can label before use. Ensure maximum ventilation during application and drying. Do not apply below 5°C. Drying will be slower below 10°C.</p>
