Installation Guide
It is very easy to apply by brush, roller or by spraying. We recommend leaving 24 hours in between coats. Generally 2 – 3 coats are desired. For exterior surfaces at least 3 coats must be applied. If painting over a previously painted surface, a light sanding would be desired, and it is good practice to test a small area before undertaking any large job for compatibility.
Most bare timber can be painted by firstly priming with the Auro hard primer 127 and then followed by at least 2 coats of the gloss paint (At least 3 coats for exterior surfaces). We recommend a very light sanding in between coats using 220 grit sandpaper. Alternatively, priming can be done by thinning the first coat of paint with 10% water instead of using the Hard Primer 127. The following coats should then be applied un-thinned.
Some woods contain active substances which can leave staining, tanning or lead to drying delays. (oak, chestnut, larch, red cedar, meranti are some examples) for these types of wood it is recommended that the Auro Special Primer 117 is used as a primer coat. If in doubt about what your wood is, this primer can be used on all wood. Here is a full list of the woods where the Special Primer 117 should be used.
The Auro Gloss paint can also be used on metal but only after priming with the Auro Rust protection primer 234.
Tools should be cleaned with water and Auro Plant Soap 411. Orange oil can be used if necessary.
