Preparation

Surfaces must be clean, dry and free from grease, dirt, oil, wax, rust, all
loose material and surface contamination. Use recommended products for
mould removal and cleaning. Treat knots and resinous areas with Knotting
Lacquer. Use suitable fillers for filling cracks, nail holes, blemishes, etc.,
and leveling of uneven surfaces. Ensure that existing glossy, gloss painted
and filled surfaces are thoroughly flatted down. Ensure that all surfaces are
thoroughly prepared prior to priming and painting.

Priming

Prime bare interior wood overall and, if necessary, spot prime all bare areas
on previously painted surfaces with Optiva Finishing Paint thinned by 5%
with water. Optiva Primer Undercoat is preferable as a primer on wood that
contains substances which may bleed through and cause staining to the
finished surface. Prime all bare metal and potential rust spots with Optiva
Metal Primer.
Methods: Brush, roller or spray.
Thinning: If necessary by up to 5% with water.

APPLICATION

Painting

Coverage

All surfaces to be painted must be dry, the moisture content of the wood
below 20%, the temperature of the air at least +8OC, and the relative
humidity of the air below 80%.
Stir the paint thoroughly and apply two coats of Optiva Finishing Paint
overall.
8-10m2/litre per coat. Wet film thickness approximately 100-125 m per coat,
dry film approximately 40- 50 m per coat. The above should only be used
as a guide, as actual spreading rates will depend upon many factors
including texture, porosity and application method.
