APPLICATION
Before using, stir thoroughly to ensure any settled pigment is
re-
dispersed. Thinning is not required. In hot,
dry conditions,
thin with
up
to 2 ounces of water per
quart
to extend
dry
time. Avoid painting in
direct
sunlight or on hot surfaces. Use a good

protection. Use light even strokes to ensure smooth and uniform
flow.
