Surface Preparation
Proper surface preparation is essential for the success of any protective coating system. Before you begin ensure the area is free from any dust, oil, grease, old coatings and surface contaminants.
The preparation of steelwork prior to painting generally falls into two main areas; that of degreasing and the removal of rust and scale.
All surfaces to be painted should be clean, dry and free from loose and flaking material, dust, grease and millscale, etc.
Prime bare surfaces with Palatine Anti-Corrosive Metal Primer or Palatine All Purpose Primer / Undercoat in accordance with our recommendations
For non-ferrous metals use Palatine Fast Dry etching primer.
Rub down previously gloss painted surfaces with fine waterproof abrasive paper and rinse thoroughly.
Mixing
Stir the paint with a drill stirrer or wooden baton at least 2” wide. Continue to stir during application.
Application
Best results are obtained in warm (minimum 10°C), dry conditions.
Mix thoroughly for approximately 2 minutes using a drill stirrer. A wooden batten at least 25mm wide is also ideal.
Apply an even coat using a brush, short to medium pile roller on smooth surfaces and a long pile roller on textured surfaces
For spray application by either airless or conventional spray a dilution ration of no more than 10% is recommended with Palatine White Spirit by volume applying thin coats allowing each one to dry before applying subsequent coats.
Once dried, a second coat can be applied at full strength. This will prolong the life and performance of the coating.
Thinning and Cleaning: Use Palatine White Spirit.
If using more than one batch of the same colour, intermix before use
Preceding Coat
Prime bare surfaces with Palatine Anti-Corrosive Metal Primer or Palatine All Purpose Primer / Undercoat in accordance with our recommendations
For non-ferrous metals use Palatine Mordant Solution.
Subsequent Coat
A second coat is recommended for maximum protection.

Applied to a building roof in late Autumn and now coming out of the winter it is still looking like applied last week. The strong glossy surface finish which appears to resist dirt and tree residue as well as bird dropping adhesion on surface. Planning to complete other work with the same gloss.

I purchased the RAL 7016 Anthracite Grey for my garage door. A decorator has painted the door using a grey undercoat and it looks absolutely fabulous. So happy with the finished look. Thanks palatine

I used the olive green RAL6003 on our camper van and very pleased as I only used a gloss roller and and brush .. this paint flattens out and brush marks disappear once it starts to dry and leaves a great finish

Really easy to apply, sticks really well and has a beautiful, tough glossy finish. I have used the black on the metal support of an outdoor table and even on ceramic plants pots. Great stuff!

I used two hour gloss paint in Traffic Orange for a machine refurbishment, dry’s to a flat shiny finish, I wish I hard used Palatine primer from the start due to my normal primer bleeding through. I found that the orange needs at least two coats.
