Material Safety Ratings of Health 1, Flammability
0, Reactivity 0, Personal Protection 0. These Safety ratings make Tough
N' White Primer ideal for use in all types of shops and SAFE for working with
volunteers and children.
Porous Surfaces- New wood,
foams, plywood, muslin, cured plaster, drywall and painted surfaces will be
well sealed and primed so that the top coat goes on easier, looks better, and
lasts longer. Once primed, top coats then have better coverage, gloss retention,
brighter color, and hiding power.
Masonry- Stucco, Concrete, Brick;
- Tough N' White Primer fills and seals in one coat, creating an excellent surface
for the finish coat. Less finish paint is required. Mortar and concrete must
be fully cured prior to application.
Surface Prep- All surfaces
must be clean and free of oil, wax, dust, peeling paint and loose wallpaper.
If surface is extremely dirty or chalky, wash with a stiff brush and water.
Clean mildew with a solution of 3 parts water to 1 part bleach. Check for unsound
paint by cutting an "X" into the paint with a razor. Firmly press scotch tape
over the mark and yank it quickly away. If paint releases, it is unsound and
should be removed.
Compatibility - Tough N'
White Primer can be used over any latex paint and can be top coated with any
latex or alkyd finish paint.
Tinting-May be tinted toward the
top coat color with Artist's Choice Saturated paints or water based universal
tinting colors.
Application-Tough N' White
Primer may be applied by brush, roller, pad applicator or sprayer. Do not apply
below 50F.
Coverage - Up to 400sq. ft per
gallon depending on the porosity of the surface.
Dry Time- Under normal conditions,
dry to handle in 30-40 minutes. May be top coated in 1 hour. Low temperatures,
high humidity, poor ventilation, may increase drying time. Use a shop or box
fan to speed up drying time if needed.
