DESCRIPTION AND USES
Universal
®
Hammered Sprays are versatile all-surface paints
that provide a durable protective coating with excellent
resistance to rust, and excellent resistance to abrasion,
fading, chipping, and dulling. Universal Hammered Sprays
are suitable for use on metal, wood, plastic, wicker and
aluminum. These sprays apply easily, provide excellent
coverage and dry fast to a tough attractive finish. Universal
features a comfort grip trigger that reduces fatigue caused by
continuous spraying and an any-angle tip which allows you to
spray at any angle.
TIP: Some plastics made of polyethylene such as plastic
storage containers are manufactured in a way that may hinder
maximum paint adhesion. Test paint in a hidden area first.

PRODUCT APPLICATION
Use outdoors or in a well ventilated area such as an open
garage. Use when temperature is between 50-90ºF (10-
32ºC) and humidity is below 65% to ensure proper drying.
Do not use on objects that may exceed 200ºF (93ºC) surface
temperature.
Do not apply to galvanized steel. Avoid spraying in very
windy and dusty conditions. Cover surrounding area to
protect from spray mist.
SURFACE PREPARATION
Remove all dirt, grease, oil, salt and chemical contaminants
by washing the surface with a commercial detergent, or other
suitable cleaning method. Rinse with fresh water and allow
to thoroughly dry. Remove loose paint and rust with a wire
brush or sandpaper. Previously coated surfaces must be
sound and in good condition. Smooth, hard, or glossy
finishes should be scarified by sanding to create a surface
profile.
