Preparation

• For maximum adhesion abrade surface lightly. Remove all loose rust, dirt and grease with Hammerite Brush Cleaner & Thinners and rinse with clean water. Allow time to dry.
• For pre-painted surfaces, remove all loose paint and wash down with dilute detergent, rinse with clean water and allow to dry.

Note: Special precautions should be taken to avoid inhalation of dust during surface preparation of pre-1960's paint surfaces as they may contain harmful Lead.

Application

• Store aerosol at room temperature for two hours prior to use. Shake can vigorously, in a vertical motion, until the agitator ball is heard and then for a further 3 minutes.
• Apply light even coats, from a distance of approximately 15cm (6") and keep the aerosol moving. Do NOT concentrate spray in one spot.
• Apply 3-4 coats for maximum protection and allow 15 minutes between coats.
• Between coats invert can and spray for 2 seconds to avoid blockages.

Cleaning & Storage

Protect aerosol from direct sunlight and do NOT expose to temperatures exceeding 50ºC (120ºF). Do not pierce or burn, even after use.
