Surface Preparation

Correct surface preparation is essential for achieving a neat and durable paint finish.

Before application:

1. Ensure the surface is clean, sound and suitably dry.
2. Remove dirt, dust and other contaminants.
3. Remove loose, peeling or flaking coatings.
4. Repair cracks, holes and surface imperfections.
5. Treat mould or other biological growth where present.
6. Sand surfaces where required.
7. Remove sanding dust thoroughly.
8. Apply an appropriate primer or sealer where necessary.
9. Ensure existing coatings are sound and compatible.

Painting over unstable or poorly prepared surfaces can negatively affect adhesion and the final appearance.

Application Recommendations

Stir the paint thoroughly before use and during application where required.

Apply using the method recommended by Duram for the specific Habitat product and substrate.

Follow the manufacturer’s current instructions regarding:

• Number of coats

• Thinning
• Drying time
• Recoating intervals
• Application conditions

Coverage

Actual paint coverage will depend on several factors, including:

• Surface porosity
• Surface texture
• Surface preparation
• Application method

Because the exact pack size and technical specifications were not provided, refer to the specific Duram Habitat container for accurate coverage information and quantity calculations.

Colour Consistency

For larger projects, purchase sufficient paint to complete continuous wall areas where possible.

Before painting, check that all containers are the correct 13 Little Karoo colour. Where recommended, boxing paint from multiple containers can help achieve greater colour consistency across larger surfaces.

Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning methods unless specifically approved for the coating. Attend to damaged or deteriorating areas when required to help maintain the overall appearance.
