Precautions:
Do not apply when ambient temperature is less than 100C or if the temperature might drop to this level within 4 hrs of application.
Do not apply when humidity is greater than 90%. It may cause prolonged drying time of paint and moisture condensation on the walls.
In high humidity areas, use of a Bio-wash solution is recommended to remove surface fungus growth, fungal spores, mould, etc. before application of the paint system.
Stir well & strain before use. Tinted paints need thorough shaking immediately after tinter added as well as before use.
For best performance, ensure that the surface is dry. The moisture level on the wall should be less than 16%. If the moisture level is more than the recommended level. Find out the source of water and address it before painting.
Use diluted materials within 48 hours.
Keep the left-over paint container tightly closed to prevent drying.
SPECIAL NOTE *
Before painting the following things should be checked thoroughly:
1. pH value of the wall surface (Ideal condition between 7-10).
2. Moisture content of the wall (Ideal condition –below 10-12%).
If these are violated, Company will not be responsible.
*As per test conducted at Apollo R&D.
