The surface should be absolutely free from dirt, dust, grease, rust, moisture etc.
Cover the area that you don’t want to paint with a masking tape, paper and/or cloth.
surface preparation
De-grease and de-rust ferrous metal substrates by suitable treatment.
For nonferrous metal substrates like aluminium, galvanised iron, tin etc. pre-treat the surface with etch primer.
For ferrous metal substrates, apply AP Metal Primer - Corrosion Resistant, either by brushing or spraying.
The use of AP Knifing Paste Filler is recommended to fill up dents and rectify surface imperfections.
Ensure that the surface is free from moisture and loose matter.
Apply one more coat of AP Metal Primer- Corrosion Resistant by brushing or spraying to cover puttied areas.
For best results, allow the primer coat to dry for 6 hours and dry sand with emery paper no. 320 before application of subsequent coat.
painting
Allow the surface to dry overnight after application of primer as mentioned above.
Apply top coat (Apcolite Premium Gloss Enamel or Apcolite Premium Satin Enamel, Gattu Synthetic Enamel) using the recommended thinner. For best results, apply two coats allowing 8 hours of drying time between two coats.
The first coat should be wet sanded with waterproof emery paper grade 400 before applying the second coat.
