SURFACE PREPARATION
|
Allow all new surfaces to dry out completely. Remove all loose or defective paint or powdery residues by thorough brushing and scraping, using a stiff fiber brush or high pressure water jet. Treat any areas affected by mould, lichens, algae and moss with Dulux Fungicidal Wash. Make good minor defects with a suitable exterior grade Filler. Use a sand and cement mix for larger holes and cracks. Allow to dry. Surfaces that remain powdery, friable or chalky after thorough preparation should be sealed with a coat of Dulux Weathershield Primer A579-15222.
