Surface preparation by substrate
Chalky Emulsion
- General application
- Apply 2 coats by brush or roller. New dry plaster surfaces should be primed with a coat of Craig & Rose Primer Undercoat or other suitable wall primer. Chalky emulsion paint can be thinned slightly with 5-10% of clean water to counteract any excessive suction when being used directly on to plaster surfaces. See can for further details. If using packs with different batch numbers then blend before use.
Eggshell
- General application
- Apply 2 coats by brush or roller (synthetic bristle brushes give good results). Previously painted gloss or lustre surfaces should be abraded to improve adhesion. See can for further details. Bare wood or plaster surfaces should be primed with Craig & Rose Primer Undercoat for best results. Special precautions should be taken during surface preparation of pre-1960’s paint surfaces over wood or metal as they may contain harmful lead. For further advice, please contact the British Coatings Federation Ltd, James House, Bridge Street, Leatherhead. KT22 7EP.
Gloss
- General application
- Apply by brush or roller (synthetic bristle brushes give good results). Previously painted or glossy surfaces should be abraded before painting to improve adhesion. A second coat should be applied for best results. Special precautions should be taken during surface preparation of pre-1960’s paint surfaces over wood or metal as they may contain harmful lead. For further advice, please contact the British Coatings Federation Ltd, James House, Bridge Street, Leatherhead. KT22 7EP.
