Excellent adhesion on most any interior or exterior surface including: weathered wood, shakes, plywood, clapboard, primed metal, galvanized, primed synthetic or aluminum siding, aluminum, tin, copper, asbestos, asphalt, urethane, polyester, primed Styrofoam, adobe, brick, stucco, concrete, clay, masonry, slate, slab and various other substrates.
For residential, commercial & industrial applications.

Roofs:
Recommended for well draining, SLOPED roofing surfaces only (see Warranty Compliance Information Section Below).

SURFACE PREPARATION:
Trenching is necessary to form a complete seal. If applicable, trench 4 to 6 inches around the perimeter of the structure. Prepare Exterior Surfaces by thoroughly pressure washing with a water and chlorine solution (unless previously done before primer coat) using at least 1500 P.S.I. to remove any previous coatings, dirt, grease, and other foreign materials, especially mold, mildew and algae. ULTRA FREE™ MATTE will resist mildew growth, but will not kill mildew already on the surface. Clean Interior Surfaces by washing off all dirt, grease, soap and oil build-up with a powdered household cleaner and water. Rinse thoroughly. Remove loose paint and powdery substances. If after cleaning, there is still chalk present or existing coating is compromised, apply a coat of ULTRA PRIME FREE™ Primer Sealer before the application of ULTRA FREE™ MATTE. Patch any holes, cracks, seams, imperfections, etc., with PERMAPATCH™, Waterproofing Caulk & Sealant.

Metal:
Clean surface of all grease, oil and foreign matter before priming. Rusted metal and uncoated metal must be primed with METAL-PRIME RED-OX™, a Red Iron Oxide Primer Sealer. Use a degreaser on galvanized or coated metals which have oils or surface treatments. Check ULTRA FREE™ MATTE adhesion on galvanized or coated metal by applying to a small area and evaluating after 48 hours. If lack of adhesion is present after evaluating, metal must be lightly scuffed without penetrating the coated finish or galvanizing. If applicable, use METAL-PRIME RED-OX™ to spot prime the penetrated areas, then use ULTRA PRIME FREE™ Primer for entire coated or galvanized surface.

APPLICATION PROCEDURE:
Stir well before using. Do not thin, use product as is. Do not apply when temperatures are below 45 degrees Fahrenheit or when humidity is very high. Do not apply when coating will be subjected to rain or heavy dew before it has had enough time to dry (approx. 2 to 4 hours). Drying time will vary depending on temperature, humidity and location. Apply using brush, roller or spray. Spread coating uniformly. Spread Rate may vary depending on surface. Apply each coat between 12 to 16 mils wet film thickness. Wait at least 12 hours before applying a second coat.
Two coats resulting in a minimum 16 mil total dry film thickness are required for the TWENTY FIVE YEAR MATERIAL WARRANTY.

Airless Sprayers:
Use at least a 1 gallon per minute piston type airless sprayer with a minimum tip size of .025. Remove all line filters and gun filters before spraying.

Clean Up:
Clean up all spills, tools and overspray immediately while the coating is still wet with warm soapy water.
