Preparation
Ensure all surfaces are sound, clean, dry and free from rust and contamination.
Lightly abrade previously painted surfaces before application to provide a key.
Using a similar base coat colour will greatly increase the metallic covering power.
Application
Ensure the product is thoroughly mixed.
Do not shake.
Try a small test area first.
On bare wood lightly sand the first coat to remove grain raising.
Apply 2-3 coats as required with a good quality brush.
Take care to eliminate brush/rollermarks by overbrushing. Brush marks will be highlighted by the metallic sheen.
Stippling the wet surface with a stippling brush will produce a hammered finish.
Spray application will ensure a smooth metallic surface.
On porous surfaces dilute the first coat with 10% water.
On bare wood lightly sand the first coat to remove grain raising.
Caution
Light reflection will accentuate brush/roller marks and imperfections in the background.
The covering ability of this paint will vary with the colour.
It is essential to do a test area before application.

Do not apply when rain is imminent.
Storage
Protect from extremes of temperature during storage and application.
