COVERAGE:
ColorMaker CEILING WHITE will cover 12 to 16 sq. metres per litre depending on the porosity and the texture of the surface.
SURFACE PREPARATION:
Generally, all surfaces must be clean, sound and dry. If mould is present, kill mould spoors with a bleach solution and rinse thoroughly. On unpainted interior surfaces, clean and dust down. Fill all holes and cracks with suitable interior filler then coat with 1‐2 coats of suitable undercoat/primer. On previously painted surfaces remove loose and flaking paint and wash down chalking areas. On areas where it is not possible to remove all these materials, apply ColorMaker OIL BASED SEALER BINDER and leave to dry for 48 Hours. All gloss surfaces should be completely dulled by sanding, then dusted and wiped clean with a damp cloth.

STIRRING:
Mix contents thoroughly prior to application. Use broad flat stirrer with a circular motion for best results.
THINNING:
Not usually required. However, in hot conditions or when painting very absorbent surfaces add no more than 10% water. When spraying up to 15% Water may be used to aid atomisation.
PRIMING:
Not normally necessary on previously painted acrylic surfaces. However, on new surfaces a primer or undercoat must always be used.
APPLICATION:
Apply one to two full even coats by brush, roller or spray over previously painted ceilings in relatively good condition. Alternatively, apply two full even coats by brush, roller or spray over newly prepared surfaces. Use a medium nap (12mm pile) roller on smooth and semi‐rough surfaces. Use a longer nap (20mm pile) roller on rough surfaces such as vermiculite. When spraying, use a 15 thou. Spray tip.
In hot weather, DO NOT paint in the afternoon, but rather wait until the next morning once the roof cavity has cooled. Dip brushes and rollers in water before use to keep them working freely, rinse them occasionally in clean water to keep them working efficiently. Avoid brushing over paint that has been drying for a few minutes, and allow any missed spots to dry before touching them up.
To prevent shadowing across your ceiling, always paint ceilings in the direction of the main light source
DRYING TIMES:
ColorMaker CEILING WHITE is touch‐dry in approximately 20 minutes, and can be recoated after 2 hours, under normal conditions (25 degrees with relative humidity).
Under cooler or humid conditions, allow longer drying times. Allow 72 hours after application, before subjecting coating to steam.
DO NOT apply ColorMaker CEILING WHITE in the heat of the day during summer, as this may affect adhesion and will cause an un‐natural accelerated drying of the product.
DO NOT paint when surface or air temperatures are above 35 degrees or below 10 degrees Celsius.
CLEAN‐UP:
Clean all painting equipment with water while still wet or with a suitable brush and roller cleaner when dry.
SAFETY
