Note: Do NOT use SLS Etch Primer as a primer with the aerosol Hammer finishproduct. Finish.In severe conditions prime steel with Rust Guard Metal Primer. Timber, masonry and other unpainted surfaces should be primed or sealed. Lightly sand previously painted surfaces. BEFORE SPRAYING Cover all necessary areas to protect from overspray.
