PREPARATION

Generally speaking: The surface must be dry, clean, stable and free of grease
and free from impurities and separating substances such as
e.g. sinter layers, resins, waxes, oils, release agents, etc. The to
The coating surface or old paint must be checked for compatibility with the new material. See also VOB, DIN 18363, Part C, Paragraph 3, painting and varnishing work. Loose and peeling paint must be completely removed.

Make appropriate repairs and apply to the exposed
Apply sufficient primer to the surface. Chalking or dirty surfaces such as soot, grease, nicotine, etc. must be cleaned with a suitable cleaning solution such as lye and then washed thoroughly with clean water. Areas that are contaminated with fungi or algae should be treated with a cleaning solution intended for this purpose according to the manufacturer's instructions before coating.

APPLICATION

Stir thoroughly before use. Paint surfaces
not at a temperature below 5 °C.

With the brush: Use a high quality brush
synthetic bristles in a size appropriate for the project. New brushes
should be washed in clean water and dried carefully
prepared with a clean, lint-free cloth. Dip the brush
Do not penetrate the paint too deeply so that the paint does not get under the clamp.
Avoid drips and splashes by not picking up too much paint with the brush. Apply the paint in even strokes and only extend the painting area so that the edges remain wet at all times. For the best results, make sure that all brush strokes end in the same direction and never paint over paint that has already started to dry.

With the roller: For best results on smooth surfaces, use
a short-pile roller for the use of solvent-based paints. (Filt/Mohair etc.) Make sure that all roller movements last in the same direction and that the edges are always kept moist. Never paint over paint that has already dried, as this will result in unsightly transitions. For complicated elements or in cases where high ambient temperatures/high air flows cannot be avoided, the time window can be extended by adding 5% (by volume) white spirit. This also applies to large, flat areas; however, in such cases it is recommended to use a roller.

Spray painting:

Conventional:
Dilute with up to: 25% (volume) white spirit
Nozzle size: 1.60 to 2.00 mm (62 to 78 mil)
Air pressure: 0.28 to 0.41 MPa (40 to 60 psi)

Airless:
Dilute with up to: 10% (volume) white spirit
Nozzle Size: Nozzle Size: 0.28 to 0.54 mm (11 to 21 mil)
Pressure at nozzle: 12.6 to 19.6 MPa (1,800 to 2,800 psi)

CLEANING

Remove excess paint and clean tools immediately after use with white spirit or a suitable substitute product. Never store brushes or roller covers in the cleaning solution as this will affect application performance.

STORAGE AND SHELF LIFE

Store unused paint in a cool, dry place away from frost, direct sunlight and sources of ignition. Make sure the lid is securely and firmly placed back on the can after use. When unopened, this product is stable for at least two years under the conditions stated above.

CARE

Cleaning and Maintenance: For light soiling, use a diluted, lukewarm dishwashing detergent solution and a clean sponge or lint-free cloth. Make sure the sponge or cloth is well moistened (but not soaking wet), gently wipe the affected area several times if necessary, and allow to air dry.

To prevent deposits from forming, always ventilate your home well when doing activities that can lead to the formation of oil or grease films (such as cooking). Ideally, remove dust caused by DIY by collecting or vacuuming it immediately.

Dust can be effectively removed with a damp paper towel or soft cloth. To prevent stains, always use a vacuum cleaner with a soft brush attachment on adjacent surfaces.

Special Care: Do not place heavy objects on the surface for at least a week after painting. For bookshelves and other surfaces that are frequently used, a very thin layer of beeswax polish is recommended to prevent long-term damage.
Repair: Carefully sand the area to be repainted and apply Intelligent ASP Primer to the prepared area. Then, using Interior Oil Eggshell, paint the area in one or two coats from edge to edge. Free-standing elements such as window frames and doors may need to be completely repainted to avoid slight color differences between the existing paint and the adjacent repaired areas. Repairs to small areas usually lead to unsightly results.

DISPOSAL AND RECYCLING

Dispose of excess or unneeded paint through a licensed waste disposal company. Empty metal containers can be recycled (remove the plastic handle from 2.5L and 5L cans).

HEALTH AND SAFETY

Always read the instructions on the can before use. Ensure good ventilation during application and drying. Further information can be found on the product safety data sheet.
