Surface Preparation
Clean the surface to be painted, removing any loose or flaking material. Traces of dirt or grease must be removed using appropriate products.
On ferrous surfaces: sand and in case of rust apply one coat of CONVERTITORE ECOLOGICO and one coat of ANTIRUGGINE ECOLOGICO.
On wooden surfaces: sand and apply one coat of ECOFONDO RIEMPITIVO. When dry, sand with abrasive paper.
On galvanized metal sheet, PVC and smooth surfaces: clean and remove grease, where possible sand with fine abrasive paper, then apply one coat of AGGRAPPANTE ECOLOGICO.
On previously painted surfaces: sand with fine abrasive paper and apply one coat of SOTTOSMALTO ECOLOGICO.
Application method
Being a product with a metallic finish its application must be homogeneous. The application by brush is allowed only for really small areas by applying, after a proper preparation of the surface, two coats of ECOSMALTO METALLIZZATO, with an interval between coats of 5-6 hours.
Application by Brush and Sponge Glove: to get a more homogenous application with a slightly cloudy effect without the marks left by the brush, it is advisable to dab the surface with a sponge glove so as to remove any imperfection. Dilute ECOSMALTO METALLIZZATO by 10% of drinkable water and apply it by brush on small areas of the wall (max 50×50 cm), then immediately dab the entire zone with the special SPONGE GLOVE. Wait 5-6 hours until dry and apply a second coat of product in the same way as before.
Application by spray: to get a homogenous and smooth effect, apply ECOSMALTO METALLIZZATO diluted by 20% by spray in two coats.
First coat: spray the product onto the surface from left to right and back again from right to left with the spray gun nozzle set in the horizontal position. Following this spray from top to bottom and back again from bottom to top with the nozzle set in the vertical position and without waiting between the two coats. The crossing over of the two jets determines the evenness of the product application.
