If maximum overcoating interval is exceeded the coating must be sanded

|
| Preparation |
PREVIOUSLY PAINTED SURFACES:
In Good Condition: Wash down with Super Cleaner, rinse with fresh water and allow to dry. Abrade with 320-400 grade (grit) paper.
In Poor Condition: Remove all previous coatings and prime the substrate.
BARE WOOD:
Sand smooth with 120 grade paper, followed by 240 and finally 320 grade
paper. Remove sanding dust by brushing, dusting and wiping. If wiping
with solvent then allow to dry completely before applying the first
coat. Prime, if required, with International's Clear Wood Sealer
Standard (Polygrond) and Clear Wood Sealer Fast Dry.
If Clear Wood Sealer has been omitted thin the first coat by 20-25% with Thinner No.9.
OILY WOODS e.g. Teak:
Must be adequately degreased and prepared prior to the application of
Perfection Plus. Thinners No.9, YTA910, YTA920 and YTA925 are suitable
for degreasing purposes. Please ensure the surface is completely dry
before applying the first coat. |
|
|
| Method |
If
used over white or off white Perfection Finish, Perfection Plus should
be blended 50:50 by volume with Perfection Finish. The use of tack rags
and a reputable Wipe Down Solvent can help achieve the required level
of cleanliness. During the cleaning process, wash down solvent or water
must not be allowed to dry on the surface. Residues must be removed
using dry paper wipes. Any sanding residue remaining on the surface can
impair the finish. |

|
| Hints |
Mixing Stir
individual products prior to mixing. Mix the base and curing agents of
Perfection Plus together at the specified mix ratio. Add curing agent
to the base, stir and leave for 10 minutes to allow bubbles to
disperse. Avoid using direct from the can. Mix the amount you expect to
use in a separate container.
Note: Any initial cloudiness will disappear upon thorough mixing.
Thinner YTA910, YTA920, YTA925 , Thinners No.9
Thinning Mix
base and curing agent first and then thin as required. The choice of
thinners will depend on the ambient temperature, the spray gun set up,
application techniques and paint viscosity. As a general guide: 10-20°C
- YTA910; 18-28°C - YTA920; >28°C - YTA925.
Cleaner YTA910, YTA915, YTA920, YTA925 , Thinners No.9
Conventional Spray Reduce viscosity to 14 seconds, DIN 4 cup or equivalent. Pressure: 3-4 bar. Tip Size: 1.0-1.4 mm.
Roller Use foam rollers. For best results when applying by roller, smooth off with a pad or brush. |

| Some Important Points |
Product
temperature should be minimum 10°C/50°F and maximum 35°C/95°F. Ambient
temperature should be minimum 10°C/50°F and maximum 40°C/104°F.
Substrate temperature should be minimum 10°C/50°F and maximum
40°C/104°F. Do not use in high wind. Avoid painting in direct sunlight.
Avoid humid conditions. Do not apply over conventional paints or
