SURFACE PREPARATION:
All surfaces must be clean, free of dust, chalk, oil, grease,
wax, polish, mold and mildew stains, loose and peeling
paint, rust and all other foreign substances.
Drywall: All drywall surfaces should be suciently
sanded smooth. Remove any remaining drywall dust prior
to priming. Allow all drywall compounds to be completely
dry prior to coating.
Wood: Remove mill glaze with sandpaper or use a product
such as BEHR PREMIUM® All-In-One Wood Cleaner No. 63
(exterior only) to open the pores of the wood and follow all
label instructions. For severe stains caused by mold, mildew,
algae and fungus, apply a mildew stain removing product.
Set nails and ll holes, scratches, and gouges with the
appropriate wood ller and let dry completely. Remove all
dust with a wiping cloth. Fill all gaps with a 100% acrylic,
siliconized, paintable caulking and allow to dry completely.
Patched and lled surfaces should be sanded smooth
and dusted clean prior to coating. WARNING! Sanding or
scraping pressure treated lumber may be hazardous; wear
appropriate protection.
Weathered-Wood Surfaces: To remove loose wood
bers, latex, oil-based and 100% acrylic coatings on new
or weathered wood decks, siding, fences, shakes and
shingles, use a product such as BEHR PREMIUM Wood Stain
& Finish Stripper No. 64 and follow all label instructions.
Use a product such as BEHR PREMIUM All-In-One Wood
Cleaner No. 63 and follow all label instructions to clean and
brighten the wood surface and to remove light to medium
stains caused by mold, mildew, algae and fungus.
Masonry: Allow to cure for 30 days. Remove bond breakers
and all form release and curing agents. Smooth masonry
may require an adequate prole for adhesion. Remove all
loose aggregate and debris. If painting cannot wait 30 days,
allow the surface to cure 7 days before priming.
Plaster: New plaster should be thoroughly dried out and
cured for a minimum of 30 days before painting. When
cured, clean using a mixed solution of one part vinegar and
one part water to remove eorescence and neutralize.
Steel: Minimum surface preparation is Hand Tool Cleaning
in accordance with SSPC-SP2. Remove all oil and grease
from the surface with a solvent in accordance with
SSPC-SP1. For optimal performance, use Commercial Blast
Cleaning in accordance with SSPC-SP6. Prime the area the
same day as cleaned.
Galvanized Steel: Solvent clean new galvanized metal
in accordance with SSPC-SP1 to remove oil and grease
from the surface. Pre-treat with a phosphoric acid solution
or a commercially-available etching solution. Galvanized
metal that has been passivated with chromates or silicates
may require brush blasting in accordance with SSPC-SP16
to remove these treatments. Rusty galvanizing requires a
minimum of Hand Tool Cleaning in accordance with SSPC-
SP2. Prime the area the same day as cleaned.
Shop-Primed Steel: As there is potential for many forms
of contamination during storage and transport, a thorough
cleaning is always recommended for shop-primed surfaces.
Paint exposed areas, i.e., where shop primer is abraded,
with the same material as used for shop priming to comply
with SSPC-PA 1 for touching up shop-primed surfaces. Note:
Assess the integrity of the shop primer prior to application
of subsequent coatings. Review all coatings intended for
the project and conrm the compatibility between shop
and eld-applied coatings.
Aluminum: Remove all oil and grease from the surface
with a solvent in accordance with SSPC-SP1. Prime the area
the same day as cleaned.
