ROLLER/SPRAY APPLICATION:·

Mix thoroughly with a broad, flat stirrer, using an upward lifting action, or power mixer

• Tex-Guard may be applied by brush, roller or airless spray. A 10-20mm nap roller is used depending on the type of texture or surface being coated.
• Typical Airless Spray set up is: Graco Ultra 500 using 0.021 – 0.023 spray tip at approx. 2500 psi.
• If using a roller, roll the coating in one (1) direction only, to avoid cross masking of layers. Brush and roll at the same time to avoid picture framing.
  

CLEAN UP:

After use clean up all equipment with water when product is still wet, do not let product dry on equipment. Dry product will require hot water to scrape and clean or paint stripper to remove off surfaces.
