Basic Surface Preparation
Surface locations require ample preparation to obtain excellent results. Be sure that the surfaces you are painting are free from grime, wax, sauces, oil, mildew, or any contaminants and that they are clean and dry. Softly scrub the surface with soap and water to remove any dirt or residue. If you happen to be extracting surface wax, a professional wax stripper will shorten the job. An Oil or Grease emulsifier can be used to remove oil or dirty grime applications.
While prep time requires time, it is essential for helping you achieve pro results. Clean formerly painted surfaces by extracting all chipping, cracking and peeling loose paint. Employ sanders, wire brushes, hand-scraping tools, electric grinders and the proper tools to complete sanding. Any type of metal pieces must be free from chips, mill scale and rust deposits. Any type of damaged surfaces that are delaminated require maintenance and sometimes replacement.
Smoothly sand the paint edges alongside the surface portion you are planning to paint. Scratch up any existing shine and lightly dull any high shine locations to generate better adhesion. Any dust and debris need to be cleaned after sanding.
Best Application Methods
Cabinet Coat can be simply applied with a paintbrush or a roller. You can use the HVLP method and spray this product but make sure it has been stirred extensively first. Try to maintain a wet paint edge when you are brushing and rolling while you cover portions which have been coated previously. Note this item dries fast. It can showcase roller marks or brush marks if overworked. For optimum results, apply Cabinet Coat when the surface and ambient temperatures are greater than 50 degrees F and less than 90 degrees F. Do not paint when there is any potential for moisture building up on the wet paint.
Best Cleaning Methods
Once you are done painting, use soapy, warm water for cleaning. After thoroughly washing your hands, soak your equipment, paint rollers and paint brushes. Ensure adequate disposal for health and safety standards. Contact your recycle centre to see if they will take dry or empty containers. Understand where your local bylaw or sanitation department stands on local disposal issues and plan as necessary. Check on removal options with your ecological agency.
Safety, Health and the Environment
Specific air circulation is vital at all times. Avoid inhaling the spray mist or sanding dust consistently. Guarantee there is a fresh air entry for drying and safe application. Slip on proper safety gear to make sure that no product will come in touch with the skin or the eyes. Wear an authorized NIOSH respirator during the application, clean up and sanding to prevent spray mist and dust exposure. Operate the respirator correctly by adhering to the manufacturer’s directions. Wash your hands both before and after use and make sure the vessel is always closed when you're finished the application.
FIRST AID
Flush with water for at least fifteen minutes if any solution enters the eyes. In case any product touches your skin, count on soap and water to clean up it away. Seek medical attention if required. If any respiration difficulty occurs, get outside into the clean air and then get medical help if difficulties persist.
