Coverage: The coverage of Swiss Formula ACR is approximately 6m2/kit. A kit yields 2 coats on a tub.
Mix 236mL of both A and B for one coat of 3m2 (surface area of average tub)
Surface Preparation: Never use Swiss Formula ACR on heated surfaces (stoves). To test compatibility with the surface, mix up a small quantity (capful of Part A and B) of Swiss Formula ACR in a metal, foil or glass container. Allow to sit for 1 hour. Dab some Swiss Formula ACR onto an inconspicuous spot to test before painting.
Never paint over a chipped or peeling finish. Fill chips in original finishes using a two-part epoxy filler. Remove peeling paint completely before applying Swiss Formula ACR.
CHIPS: Repair surface chips with a 2-part epoxy filler.
RUST: Sand rusted areas and treat with a rust neutralizer/converter, such as Klenk’s Rust Converter or Circa 1850 Bare Metal.
GROUT: For best results, remove grout prior to painting tiles. Regrout after painting. If grout is not removed, thoroughly remove all
traces of grout sealer prior to cleaning, by scrubbing with Klenk’s Epoxy Thinner and then scrubbing with ammonia.
CAULKING: Thoroughly remove all traces of caulking prior to cleaning, by scraping off caulking, scrubbing with Klenk’s Epoxy Thinner
and then scrubbing with ammonia. Contamination of paint with caulking residue may result in small circles where paint
does not adhere (fish eyes). Add 2 drops of Klenk’s Fish Eye Eliminator to the paint if fish eyes occur. Recaulk after painting.
CLEANING: Thoroughly clean the surface using Swing TSP, VIM®
, Comet®, etc. Rinse thoroughly after cleaning.
SANDING: Thoroughly sand the surface to remove any gloss from the finish.
Use 200 grit for acrylic, fibreglass, etc. and 80 grit for ceramic, porcelain, etc.
Recoat Time: If applying two thin coats of Penofin Wood Sealer, allow the 1st coat to dry for one hour before applying the 2nd coat. Allow 72 hours before returning furniture to the , or resuming heavy use.
Maintenance: Once cured, you may clean painted surfaces with Klenk’s Bare Bath or with dishwashing liquid diluted 10 times in water.
DO NOT USE products containing caustics, solvents or abrasives
Cleanup: Clean spills and brush/roller immediately after each use using Klenk's Epoxy Thinner. Alternatively, use a new brush/roller for each coat.
