Application Instructions

FOLLOW THESE SIMPLE APPLICATION STEPS
1.  Rainguard COLOR-LOK is best and most economically ap-plied using commercial airless spray equipment set at moderate pressures using a tip of .015 to .021. For appli-cation to horizontal surfaces, materials may be sprayed or rolled using a short nap roller. Back rolling may be necessary to even the applied finish.
Spray apply one coat of COLOR-LOK to surfaces at the suggested rates depending on color, surface type, and porosity. To avoid lap marks, maintain a continuous wet edge. Feath er edges at the end of each pass. Stop appli-cation only at control joints, corners, and edges. If a “heavier” painted look is needed, apply additional coats.

2. All surfaces to be coated should be structurally sound, clean, and dry. Kill mold, mildew, and fungus using com-mercially available cleaners or a 50/50 mix of bleach and water. Make sure all residue is rinsed prior to coating application.

3.  Mix contents thoroughly prior to application. To prevent skinning, cover pail with a damp cloth.
