Garage Door Paint

Preparation

  • To get the best results, ensure surface is dry and free from loose rust millscale, paint, oil and grease.
  • Lightly abrade painted surfaces with a suitable abrasive paper and if necessary a wire brush to remove rust.
  • Degrease where necessary with white spirit.
  • Prime bare aluminium or galvanised steel with Hammerite Special Metals Primer.
  • On areas of bare or rusty steel apply a suitable metal primer. For best results use Hammerite No1. Rustbeater.

One coat is normally sufficient, unless there is a severe colour contrast with the previous coatings

Application

  • An ideal application temperature range is 8-25°C.
  • Lightly stir before use. Do not mix vigorously.
  • Apply 1 or 2 coats of Hammerite Garage Door Paint, depending on colour. Where a strong colour change is required, 2 or more coats will be required. Allow to dry overnight before applying a second coat.

Touch dry in 4 hours, recoatable after 16 hours.

Cleaning & Storage

After use, remove as much paint as possible from brushes before cleaning with Hammerite Brush Cleaner & Thinners or white spirit.
