NEW WOODEN SURFACE: Treat the surface as soon as possible. At least the impregnation and priming would be best done in the summer of construction. Remove from the surface all loose matter, dirt, dust and mildew. If needed, use RENSA FACADE facade cleaner. Apply a coat of clear wood preservative from the WOODEX series. Allow to dry for one day. For best result, prime wooden surfaces with NORDICA PRIMER and allow the surfaces to dry for 1 - 3 days depending on the weather. Wash the metal parts with TEKNOSOLV 1621 (solvent naphtha) and prime with FERREX AQUA. PREVIOUSLY PAINTED OR OLD WOODEN SURFACE: Replace deteriorated wooden parts with new ones. Remove loose matter, dirt and dust. Remove the deteriorated paint coats entirely. Note, that the adhesion of an old thick paint layer to the substrate may have been weakened, therefore the paint should be removed although the paint film looks intact. The old paint layer is removed primarily by scraping or wire brushing and possibly by heating the surface with infra-red heater designed for that purpose. Secondarily paint remover or blasting can be used. Wash surfaces with RENSA FACADE facade cleaner and rinse thoroughly. Old, untreated wooden surfaces can before the priming be treated with clear wood preservative from the WOODEX series, see 'NEW WOODEN SURFACE'. For best result, prime bare wooden surfaces with NORDICA PRIMER. Allow to dry for 1 to 3 days depending on the weather. Wire-brush the rusty metal parts. Wash all metal parts with TEKNOSOLV 1621 (solvent naphtha) and prime with FERREX AQUA.

Reserve a sufficient amount of paint in the same vessel for each uniform surface. Colour differences will thus be avoided. Stir the paint well and apply by paint brush or spray once or twice. If the paint is applied by spray, the surface is to be finished by a brush to ensure the adhesion.

The surface to be painted must be dry. The moisture of the wood must be below 20% of the dry weight of the wood. During the application and drying period the temperature of the ambient air, the surface and the paint shall be above +5°C and the relative air humidity below 80%. Avoid application in direct sunlight.

Must not freeze.
