Surface Preparation and Application

All surfaces must be thoroughly cleaned and free from dirt, grease, wax and poorly adhering paint. Appropriate and good surface preparation significantly increases the top coat life and durability. Deploy skilled/experienced individuals for the application of paint. A few general instructions are given below.

New or Bare Surfaces:

Metal: Surface to be painted must be dry, clean and free from all contamination. Remove dirt, grease and waxy material. Scuff with suitable abrasive paper, dust off and apply Duralex Chlorinated Rubber Paint on metal surfaces as a priming coat. Allow the surface to dry out completely, scuff the surface with suitable sand paper, dust off and apply 2-3 coats of Duralex Chlorinated Rubber Paint.

Concrete or Bitumen: New concrete, mortar or cement render must be allowed to cure for 8-12 weeks depending on concrete thickness and drying condition. Surface to be painted must be dry clean and free from all contamination and efflorescent salts. Remove dirt, grease and waxy material by rubbing down using a suitable abrasive paper or bristle brush. The temperature of the surface must be appropriate and relative humidity and dew point of air must be checked. Apply Duralex Chlorinated Rubber Paint as a priming coat and allow the surface to dry out completely, scuff the surface with suitable sand paper, dust off and apply 2-3 coats of Duralex Chlorinated Rubber Paint.

Previously Painted Sound Surfaces:

Previously painted sound surfaces must be thoroughly rubbed down using a suitable abrasive paper and dusted off. Remove all loose scale, defective paint and rust by thorough scraping and wire brushing. Spot prime with recommended primer and allow the surface to dry out completely. Scuff with suitable sand paper and dust off and apply 2-3 coats of Duralex Chlorinated Rubber Paint.
