Before applying Coo-Var All Purpose Primer, proper surface preparation is essential to ensure optimal adhesion and performance:

• All surfaces: Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free from grease, oil, dust, and any other contaminants.
• Bare steel: Surfaces must be free from rust, scale, and dust.
• Blast cleaning to SA 2½ standard is strongly recommended for the best results.
• If blast cleaning is not feasible, use mechanical cleaning methods. Note that hand cleaning is insufficient and does not meet the required standard.
• Remove all oil and grease using Coo-Var Degreaser before de-rusting.
• If blasting is done after assembly, pay special attention to edges, corners, welds, bolts, and nuts.
• Welds should be ground smooth where necessary, and all slag, weld spatter, and residues must be fully removed.
• New wood: Lightly sand the surface to create a suitable key for the primer to adhere effectively.

Mix thoroughly before use to ensure an even consistency. Ensure all surfaces are fully prepared as outlined in the surface preparation instructions.

• Do not apply when the temperature is at or below 7°C during application or drying.
• Apply under conditions that follow good painting practice.
• The ambient temperature must be above the dew point to prevent moisture-related contamination during application.
• In confined or enclosed spaces, ensure adequate ventilation is provided throughout both the application and drying processes.
• Use a brush or roller for even coverage depending on the surface and project scale.
• Apply in thin, even coats for best adhesion and finish.
• Allow to dry for at least 1.5 hours (touch dry) and 4 hours (hard dry) before handling.
• Overcoating after 6 hours.
