Preparation

• For maximum adhesion abrade surface lightly. Remove all loose rust, dirt and grease with dilute detergent 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.

• Bare cast iron and rusted surfaces should be primed before applying Hammerite Quick Drying Radiator Paint. For best results use Hammerite No.1 Rustbeater.

Application

• Ideal application temperature is 8 to 25ºC. Stir thoroughly before use.
• By brush: apply 1 or 2 coats, depending on the condition, onto the surface of a cold radiator. Allow 12 hours between coats.
• Do not use radiators for 24 hours after application.

Cleaning & Storage

After use clean brush with soap and water. Protect from frost and extreme temperatures. Do NOT empty paint into drains or watercourses.

Tools Required

Blunt screwdriver or old knife, wire brush or coarse sandpaper, paint brush, goggles, protective gloves, masking tape, Hammerite Brush Cleaner & Thinners and rags.
