Cabinet Coat Trim & Cabinet Enamel Satin Finish CC-45XX
Surface Preparation
General
All surface areas to be painted should be clean, dry,
sound and free of all dirt, grease, oils, waxes, mildew and any other
surface contaminants. Dirt and chalk should be thoroughly removed
by scrubbing with warm soapy water. Surface wax should be
removed with a commercial wax stripper. Grease or Oil residue
s
hould be removed using Grease & Oil emulsifier
. Remove all loose
chipping, cracking and peeling from previously
painted surfaces by
hand scraping, sanding, wire brushing and/or by use of power tool
cleaning
methods such as electric sanders, grinders, etc. Remove
any loose rust, mill scale, rust deposits
from metal surfaces
.
Repair/replace any seriously damaged and/or delaminated surface
areas. Lightly feather sand
all rough paint edges to adjacent surface
area. All glossy surface areas should be lightly sanded
to effectively
dull any existing sheen and create a more suitable surface for
painting.
NOTE
:
Always clean before sanding to prevent driving
contamination into the substrate or
previous coatings!
Glossy Surfaces
Although Cabinet
Coat is formulated to be
applied to hard
to coat surfaces without the need for sanding, it is
recommended that proper surface preparation still be completed to
enhance adhesion properties. Surfaces such as Melamine
Laminate, Formica
®
, ceramic tile and glossy painted surfaces should
be properly d
eglossed.
Previously Painted Surfaces: No primer is needed if surface is in
good condition. Clean or sand as described above. Spot prime bare
spots with an initial coat of Cabinet
Coat.
Melamine Laminate or Formica
®
:
No primer needed. Lightly sand
with fi
ne sandpaper. Remove sanding dust with tack rag.
Ferrous Metal
: Prime bare spots with acrylic metal primer.
WARNING!
If you scrape, sand, or remove old paint, you may
release lead dust. LEAD IS TOXIC. EXPOSURE TO LEAD DUST
CAN CAUSE SERIOUS ILLNESS, SUCH AS BRAIN DAMAGE,
ESPECIALLY IN CHILDREN. PREGNANT WOMEN SHOULD
ALSO AVOID EXPOSURE. Wear a NIOSH approved respirator to
control lead exposure. Clean up carefully with a HEPA vacuum and
a wet mop. Before you start, find out how to protect yourself and
your f
amily by contacting the National Lead Information Hotline at 1

Application
Cabinet
Coat applies easily with a high-
quality brush or roller. If
spraying is desired, the preferred method is HVLP. Stir product
thoroughly before using. It is important to maintain a wet edge
during all methods of paint application by brushing or rolling into
previousl
y applied coating area. Overworking Cabinet
Coat can
lead to brush marks or roller marks, as this product dries quickly.
Apply when
surface and ambient temperature are above 5
F and
below
90ºF. Avoid paint application
outside when weather
conditions
are threatening, and late in the afternoon when there is
a threat
of moisture condensing on wet paint. Do not paint if
surface temperature is within 5
degrees of the dew point.
Brush:
High-quality Synthetic Bristle only.
Roller:
High-quality Short Nap Cover (Less than ½”).
Spray: Thin with up to 8 oz per gallon of clean water. For HVLP,
use a #12 air cap and needle.
If spraying with an airless or conventional sprayer, atomization
could infuse the product with air
that may become entrapped in the
coat
ing. For that reason, thin with up to 8 oz per gallon of
clean
water, dial the pump pressure down as much as possible and use
a 019
-021” tip. Multiple
thin coats will provide better results than
one heavy application.
Clean
Up
Clean hands, brushes, rollers and other equipment with warm,
soapy water immediately after use.
USE COMPLETELY OR DISPOSE OF PROPERLY. Dry empty
containers may be recycled in a can recycling program. Local
disposal requirements vary; consult your sanitation
department or sta
te-
designated environmental agency on
disposal options.
