Instructions
SURFACE PREPARATION:
Repainting:
Remove all loose, scaling, flaking and peeling off paint by using Boysen® Paint and Varnish Remover #141, wire brushing, scraping, or water blasting. Let it dry. For chalking old paint, use Boysen® Chalk Blocker #7304 as primer. In case of mildew infestation, treat with fungicidal wash solution or laundry bleach solution (1:3, bleach to water, respectively) by swabbing or brushing. To ensure proper treatment, allow to stand on surface for overnight before washing off residue. Let dry.
PAINTING SCHEDULE:
Apply Boysen® Permacoat™ Flat Latex #701 as primer for bare substrate only.
After primer application, apply Boysen® DECORe™ Undercoat #4605 by brush or roller and fully cover the surface. Let dry.
Note : The design can only be achieved using Boysen® DECORe™ Undercoat.
After choosing the desired color, mix Boysen® DECORe™ Toner into Boysen® DECORe™ Base #4610. A color can be applied in different tones by varying amount of toner used, either Full, One-half, One-Fourth, or any other proportion depending on desired shade. Stir until uniform consistency is achieved. DO NOT THIN MIXTURE WITH WATER OR ANY SOLVENT.
Using a 3” Diamond (China) Boysen® DECORe™ brush, apply from top corner, working with short crisscrossing strokes. If a more uniform pattern is desired, stroke with a clean brush while paint is still wet.
Note: The design may not be achieved if a different paint brush is used.
Allow 8 to 10 minutes after applying Boysen® DECORe™ before lightly combing using the plastic scraper again in long crisscrossing strokes, with the scraper inclined and close to the surface.
