PRE - APPLICATION
SURFACE PREPARATION

Surfaces must be sound, clean, as dry as possible and free from all defective or poorly adhering material, dirt, grease or wax. If after thorough preparation, surfaces remain powdery, or suffer front alkali attack seal with one coat of an appropriate Primer (see below).
Note: Even though this primer facilitates painting on damp walls, it sould not be applied on areas where moisture reading (as measured by Protimeter) exceeds 22%. These walls should be left to dry further. However if panted, the moisture will build up behind this waterproof primer and cause blisters to emerge on the paint film on aging.
