| Limitations | Safecoat paints are made without formaldehyde preservatives. Do not contaminate. Store in airtight containers. Do not use when indoor temperature is below 55 degrees F. Do not freeze. Thick application, high humidity or conditions other than normal will cause Safecoat to dry and cure more slowly. |
| surface Preparation | Clean surfaces of dirt, grease, mildew and oil. Surfaces painted with oil based coatings should be sanded to promote adhesion (all gloss must be removed). Wet sanding is recommended. Surface should be completely dry before application. Always spot test for adhesion over prior coatings. |
| Application | Before using, stir Safecoat AcriGlaze well, then apply as is. Apply with a brush, roller or airless sprayer. Spraying, reduce with up to 1/2 pint of water per gallon. Use a painter’s mask when spraying. (Note: highpile heights will add additional texture.) Airless sprayers should have a 17/1000 to 21/1000 tip (reversible type is best). Only a 30 mesh high pressure filter should be used. Use a painter’s mask when spraying. For full coverage application, overlap preceding application with 1/4 to 1/2 the fan width at a distance of 18” from surface. |
| Clean-Up | Clean tools and equipment while they are still wet with a warm soapy water solution. |
| Drying/Curing Time | Re-coatable after 2 hours in normal conditions. Normal conditions include a dry surface, access to fresh air flow, moderate humidity, and temperatures above 55 degrees F |
