SURFACE PREPARATION:
New Concrete
New concrete should be allowed to dry for 14 to 28 days under normal weather conditions before paint application. Surface to be painted should be clean, dry, free from oil, grease, dust, dirt, and other contaminants. If painting must be done immediately within the 14 to 28 day curing period, treat the surface with a solution of 1 part Dutch Boy® Nalcrete™ Masonry Neutralizer 7000 diluted in 16 parts water. Apply the solution liberally using a brush or roller. Let dry overnight before rinsing with water to remove white crystal that will have formed on the surface. Let dry before painting. If the concrete has been cured for 28 days or more, there is no need to apply a neutralizer.
Wooden Surfaces
Hammer all nails deep enough to apply putty. Sand rough wood until smooth and then dust off before painting. Avoid using product on high friction areas.
Drywall Subtrates
Install and secure joints as per manufacturer’s recommendations.
Repainting
Scrape off all loose, scaling, flaking, and peeling paint manually or by using a paint and varnish remover. Wash surfaces clean and completely remove any residue. Let it dry.
For repainting concrete with chalky old paint, use a surface conditioner. In case of mildew infestation, treat with a bleach solution (1:3, laundry bleach to water, respectively) by swabbing or brushing. To ensure proper treatment, let stand for 24 hours before washing off residue. Let dry.
For repainting other surfaces such as wood, follow the first step then apply the appropriate primer before recoating.
