TOOLS & SUPPLIES
DIRECTIONS
STEP 1
PAINTING CONDITIONS: Paint in a well ventilated area
STEP 2
PREPARATION: Remove loose paint and rust with a wire brush or sandpaper. Lightly
sand glossy surfaces. Clean surface with soap and water, rinse and allow to fully
dry.
STEP 3
PRIMING: If painting on laminate or vinyl surface, no primer is needed. For bare
metal or bare wood surfaces, a Rust-Oleum primer is recommended for superior adhesion.
STEP 4
PAINTING: Stir paint thoroughly. Use a high quality brush with flagged (split) ends
for smaller areas. For best results, use roller to paint entire surface and use
the brush for hard-to-reach or smaller areas.
STEP 5
DRY AND RECOAT TIMES: Dries to the touch in 1-2 hours, to handle in 4-6 hours. May
be recoated within 1 hour or after 24 hours. May require more than one coat over
contrasting colors. Allow 3 DAYS for surface to dry before use.
STEP 6
COVERAGE: One can of paint will cover 25 linear feet of an average countertop
STEP 7
NOTES ON USAGE:
Surface Cleaning - Clean surface with a damp non-abrasive cloth, mild detergent
or mild household cleaner. Do not scrub with abrasive cleaners, steel wool, sandpaper
or scouring pads.
Surface Protection - As with most manufactured laminate surfaces, this paint finish
will remain durable with proper use and care. Use a trivet or other protective material
underneath all hot cookware and other heated objects. Use cutting boards or other
protective surfaces when preparing food. Heavy pounding, knives or other sharp utensils
may scratch the surface.
