How to Use

PrepSurfaces must be clean, dry and dull prior to application. Thoroughly clean the surface and allow to dry. Remove wallpaper and loose, peeling paint. Scrape and sand peeled or damaged paint. Sand glossy surfaces dull. All dust should be removed.

ApplicationApply a liberal coat of primer uniformly, working well into the surface. First coat of primer locks in the stain and odor. Apply at temperatures above 40°F. Prior to painting, check to be sure the air, surface and material temperatures are above 40°F and at least 5°F above the dew point. Avoid using if rain or snow is expected within 2-3 hours. Air and surface temperatures must not drop below 40°F for 48 hours after application.
