Ensure that the surfaces to be primed are sound, clean, and dry (it is particularly important that new surfaces are completely dry) and free from all defective or poorly adhering material such as efflorescence, dirt, grease or wax.

  • Where necessary, surfaces should be rubbed down using a suitable abrasive paper and then dusted off.
  • Use a suitable oil and grease remover to clean the surface if necessary
  • Special precautions should be taken when preparing pre-1960s paint surfaces over wood and metal as they may contain harmful lead.

We recommend testing a small area before painting the entire surface to ensure compatibility.
