PRODUCT APPLICATION
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE STARTING PROJECT
IMPORTANT: All surfaces should be tested for adhesion before coating the entire surface. Clean a small 3”x3”, inconspicuous area, let dry. Apply HOME Base Coat over area and allow to dry for 12 hours. Take a utility knife and make an X in the coating down to the surface. Apply a 4” piece of duct tape over the X and press firmly. Remove the tape with one quick pull. If more than 10% of the coating comes off, the surface will need to be sanded with 60-80 grit sandpaper before coating the entire surface.
SURFACE PREPARATION
Rinse or sweep away any dirt and dust. Clean the entire surface with a cleaner degreaser, such as Original Krud Kutter® Cleaner Degreaser. Rinse thoroughly and allow to dry completely. For any areas where caulk is present, caulk needs to be removed before applying coating. For waxed surfaces, wax needs to be removed before applying coating. NOTE: Failure to follow this preparation method may result in poor adhesion and possible coating failure.
APPLICATION
Rust-Oleum HOME Creative Accents paint is ready to use. Do not thin. Stir thoroughly before use. Apply after Rust-Oleum HOME Base Coat fully dries (sold separately; see product for instructions). If using more than one jar of the same color of Creative Accents, intermix jars together for color uniformity. Apply when air, material, and surface temperatures are between 50-90°F (10-32°C) and relative humidity is below 85%. Use a tack cloth to remove lint and debris before applying over the HOME Base Coat. Lightly apply paint using a brush or 3/8" nap roller. Use rags or paper towels to remove excess paint from brush or roller to prevent stencil bleed. Do not let product puddle. Wait 6 hours before applying necessary touch-ups. Let touched-up areas dry for 1-2 hours (dry to touch) before applying Rust-Oleum HOME Top Coat (sold separately; see product for instructions).
IMPORTANT: Rust-Oleum HOME® Base Coat and Top Coat are required for the project.
