Surface Preparation – Follow standard practices and procedures for properly preparing surfaces for the application of traditional water-based acrylic paint. All surfaces to be painted must be entirely free of dust, dirt, oil, grease, and other contaminants. Completely remove all loose, flaking, or chalking paint from the surfaces. Use a NIOSH approved respirator when sanding and when working with old, loose paint particles. Provide adequate ventilation. Properly prime the clean, dry surface with a primer from our recommended list of primers and allow the surface to dry completely—preferably overnight. Note: Lower temperature and higher humidity will lengthen the dry and cure times of primers.
