Spray application: 

• Hold can upright 15 to 25cm from the surface. 

• To ensure surface compatibility, test spray on an inconspicuous area. 

• Spray with smooth, even strokes parallel to the surface. 

• Apply with several light mist coats rather than one heavy coat. 

• Allow for drying time of two minutes between each coat.
