PREPARATION
All surfaces should be properly prepared and cleaned. Remove loose paint, wash off chalk, dirt, and grease with detergent, rinse and allow to dry. Remove mildew stains with a mildew stain removing product. Scuff sand glossy surfaces and repair imperfections. Remove all dust with a damp cloth, allow to dry. For new or uncoated wood, use a product such as BEHR PREMIUM™ No. 63 All-In-One Wood Cleaner. Etch galvanized metal with a product such as BEHR PREMIUM™ No. 991 Concrete & Masonry Cleaner & Etcher. Allow masonry/concrete surface to cure for 30 days before applying. All masonry surfaces must have a pH of 13.0 or less prior to coating.
APPLICATION
Apply when air and surface temperatures are between 50-90°F (10-32°C). Use a high quality 3/8-1/2" nap roller cover, nylon/polyester brush or an airless sprayer (.015-.021" spray tip, 60 mesh filter). Stir primer occasionally. Do not thin if using a roller or brush; however, if using a sprayer and thinning is required, thin with water at a rate of no more than 1/2 pint per gallon. Two coats may be needed over stains and woods that contain tannins. Spot prime patched areas first, follow with a complete primer coat. Topcoat within 30 days. Bright or deep colors require a tinted primer. Have primer tinted close to topcoat color with no more than 4 ounces of colorant per gallon.
† On stained surfaces, topcoat in 4 hours, for heavy stains, topcoat in 16 hours.

For disposal of empty containers, unused paint and soiled rags, contact your household refuse collection service.
