How To Apply

1. PREPARATION

AEROSOL:

• Remove all rust and flaking paint back to bare metal with a wire brush, scraper or mechanical sander.
• The surface must be clean, dry and free from dust, dirt, grease, oil, rust scale and other contaminants.
• Cover all necessary areas to protect from overspray.

BRUSH ON:

• Remove all rust and flaking paint back to bare metal with a wire brush, scraper or mechanical sander.
• The surface must be clean, dry and free from dust, dirt, grease, oil, rust scale and other contaminants.

2. APPLICATION

AEROSOL:

• Shake can vigorously for 1 minute before use and regularly during use.
• Hold the can upright approximately 15-20 cm from the surface.
• Press button firmly and spray with a smooth sweeping motion. Apply a pre-wetting mist coat followed by a full even coat, overlapping each spray pass. To prevent paint sagging, avoid spraying too close to the surface or spraying too heavily.
• Repeat if necessary.

Do not use when air or surface temperature is below 15°C or above 30°C.

BRUSH ON:

• Stir thoroughly with a broad flat stirrer in a circular lifting motion for at least 5 minutes before use and continue to stir at regular intervals during application.
• No thinning is required for application by brush or roller. If spraying with a spray gun, you may thin up to 10% with White Knight Rust Guard Solvent.
• Apply 1 coat by brush, roller or spray gun.

Do not use when air or surface temperature is below 10°C or above 30°C

3. OVER COATING

BRUSH ON: Overcoat between 2 and 24 hours after application with an enamel or water based topcoat.

4. COVERAGE

AEROSOL: Approximately 1.5m² per can

BRUSH ON: Approximately 14m² per litre, depending on the nature of the surface

5. DRYING
