Correct surface preparation is important for achieving a neat and consistent finish.

Ensure surfaces are clean, sound and suitably dry. Remove dirt, dust, grease, loose or flaking coatings and other contaminants. Repair cracks, holes and surface imperfections before painting.

Treat mould or biological growth appropriately where present. Sand surfaces where required and remove all sanding dust.

Apply a compatible primer or sealer where required by the substrate or Duram’s current application instructions. Previously painted surfaces should be sound and compatible with the new coating.

Application Recommendations

Stir the paint thoroughly before use and during application where required. Apply using equipment and methods recommended by Duram for the specific Habitat coating.

Follow the manufacturer’s instructions regarding:

• Surface preparation
• Primer or sealer requirements
• Number of coats
• Application method
• Thinning requirements
• Drying and recoating times
• Suitable application conditions

Coverage

Actual coverage depends on surface porosity, texture, preparation, existing colour, previous coatings, application technique and the number of coats required.

Refer to the product container or current Duram technical information for the theoretical spreading rate before calculating the quantity required.

Colour Consistency

Where possible, purchase sufficient paint to complete continuous wall areas. For larger projects, follow Duram’s recommendations regarding batch consistency and mixing or boxing multiple containers where applicable.
