Preparation

• Ensure that the surface is cool before and during painting. Clean surface by removing all loose paint and rust, dirt, grease and salt. Remove grease and clean with dilute detergent. Rinse with clean water and allow time to dry.
• For maximum adhesion on galvanized metal or aluminium surfaces apply Hammerite Special Metals Primer.

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.
