SIRCA FINESSE Interior Wall Primer is a water-based wall coating suitable for application on interiors as an undercoat to interior emulsions.
Directions for use
Plaster
The masonry surface to work on should be treated and well cured before applying SIRCA FINESSE (WallPrimer). Better to allow a gap of 28 day before starting the process.
Filling for cracks
3mm SIRCA Paints Crack Seal could be used for the fillers.
Cleaning
Surface should be free from any loose paint, dust or grease. Growths of fungus, algae or moss should be removed by wire brushing and water. In case of areas having excessive dampness use SIRCA Paints Damp Block to limit further dampness. Even after cleaning if the surface shows chalkiness, use SIRCA Paints Primer to get an even surface.
Filling for holes & dents
In case of dents and holes use SIRCA Paints Acrylic Wall Putty or white cement and fine sand in the ratio 1:3.
Precautions
- Do not apply when ambient temperature is less than 10°C or if the temperature might drop to this level within 4 hrs of application.
- Do not over-thin or over-extend the brush.
- Do not use Universal Stainers or any other colourants.
- Stir well and strain before use.
- In coastal areas, it is not recommended to leave the primer without the application of top coats for a long period of time.
Painting Care
- For the best performance of the paint, ensure proper washing of the painting surface and cleaning of all algal and fungal growth, if any at regular intervals of six months.
