How to use Hammerite Smooth Metal Paint

1. Remove all loose rust and flaking paint from the metal using a wire brush.
2. If the metal was already painted, wash down thoroughly with diluted detergent, rinse with clean water and allow to dry.
3. To ensure compatibility, apply a small test patch of Hammerite Smooth Metal Paint to the painted surface. Any reaction will occur within an hour.
4. If a reaction is evident, remove all paint then wash down with de-greaser. Rinse with clean water and allow to dry.
5. If the objects are made from bare zinc, aluminium or galvanized metal use Hammerite Direct to Galvanised Metal Paint.
6. For smooth metal surfaces, lightly abrade for maximum adhesion.
7. Cover the surface beneath the metal object with thick newspaper or a dust sheet to catch any spills or drips.
8. Stir the paint thoroughly before use.
9. Apply with a good quality brush. A narrow brush is best for use on railings.
