SURFACE PREP
REPAIR cracks and fill voids with a paintable patching/caulking material. Degloss all shiny, smooth, hard, or glossy surfaces by lightly sanding. Remove all loose and scaling paint.
CLEAN all paintable surfaces to be free of dirt, dust, oil, grease, wax, and other contaminants. Rinse and allow surface to dry completely.
PRIME unsealed surfaces such as ferrous metal, plaster/wallboard, cedar, redwood, and other wood surfaces that may contain tannins or water stains with an appropriate Miller Paint primer. Test for adhesion and compatibility when painting over existing finishes.
STIR thoroughly before use. Thinning not recommended. If necessary, use a small amount of clean tap water. Do not use solvent to thin.
APPLY using nylon or synthetic brush, pad, roller, or spray. Do not apply when surface temperatures are below 35°F or when temperatures are expected to drop below 35°F within 24 hours. Keep product from freezing.
CLEANUP by removing all paint spatters, and wash all brushes and equipment immediately with warm soapy water. Follow with a clear rinse.
Blistering and peeling of exterior house paints down to the bare wood is usually caused by moisture behind the paint film. Moisture pressure forces the paint away from the surface. Sources of excess moisture in the wood must be eliminated prior to repainting. Old, unsound multiple coat paint systems may be subject to peeling when repainted due to the added weight and stress created by paint layers. In such cases, all old paint layers must be removed back to bare wood before repainting.
The contents of this can should be well stirred or boxed by pouring from one can to another to assure color uniformity. More than one can of the same color should be mixed together as you progress with your work. Check color before painting, not responsible for application of wrong shade. Custom colors are not returnable.
