Application

Clean the surface from dirt and dust. Wash previously painted, dirty surfaces with Teknos Rensa Super paint cleaner. Matt down hard or gloss surfaces by sanding and thereafter remove the dust. For smoothing of irregularities in the surface choose a suitable filler from the Teknos Silora series. The dried filler is sanded down and the dust removed.

Steel surfaces are primed with Teknos Ferrex Aqua anti-corrosive paint. Teknos Timantti 3 is a water-borne paint. Coatings, which are not waterproof, such as old
unpainted ceiling stopper or glue paint coats, must be removed before applying Teknos Timantti 3. Alternatively Teknos Futura 3 adhesion primer can be used as an insulation primer.

Before use stir the paint thoroughly. The paint can be diluted with water, if required, but dilution may impair the coverage of the paint. Apply by roller, spray or brush.
