Not normally used on opening sashes and doors (use Resene Enamacryl - see Data Sheet D309). 3. Disconnect roof downpipes until after the first shower of rain in order to flush away surplus non-toxic wetting agents before the surface is used for the collection of drinking water. 4. Light colours are recommended for UPVC surfaces as dark shades will cause warping. 5. Not suitable for roof areas where water ponding occurs. 6. Spraying micaceous iron oxide colours will require an expert.

Directions of Use :

All surfaces Clean down thoroughly to remove all dirt, dust and loose material. Ensure surface is free from oil, grease, mould and release agents. Any timber that has been exposed to weather for more than one week requires thorough sanding of the surface or treatment with Resene TimberLock (see Data Sheet D48). If moss and mould are present, treat with Resene Moss & Mould Killer (see Data Sheet D80). Waterblasting at 21,000 kps (3000 psi) is the best surface preparation method prior to painting weathered cementitious surfaces or galvanised steel. When painting new or old galvanised roofs, ensure surface to be painted is thoroughly cleaned using Resene Roof Wash and Paint Cleaner (see Data Sheet D88). Flush clean with freshwater. Consult Resene for technical advice on painting of old cementitious roof tiles.
