Aalto Ultra Premium Waterbased Enamel Low Sheen can be applied by synthetic brush, roller, or spray.

Airless spray – a 415 or 515 tip is recommended. When spraying, Aalto Ultra Premium Waterbased Enamel Low Sheen will need to be thinned to suit.
Rolling – a synthetic 6-8mm nap roller sleeve is recommended.

Because of the quick drying nature of Aalto Ultra Premium Waterbased Enamel Low Sheen, in hot conditions it may be necessary to thin up to 5% with hot weather thinners.

When rolling walls that are highlighted by natural lighting from large windows, you will need to ‘lay off’ with the roller in one direction after applying the paint. This should be done in one continuous operation from one end of the wall to the other without stopping. For large areas, two applicators may be required – one to lay on the paint, and one to ‘lay off’.

1. Ensure surfaces are free from loose and flaking paint. Wash surfaces with a suitable cleaner such as sugar soap to remove any dirt, oils or grease. If any areas of mould are present, treat with a suitable mould remover.
2. Fill any cracks or holes with a paintable filler. Allow to dry, and sand to a smooth finish.
3. Spot prime any repair work with Aalto 3 in 1 Undercoat
4. Stir paint thoroughly with a broad flat paddle, using an up and down scooping motion.
5. Apply 2 coats of Aalto Ultra Premium Waterbased Enamel Low Sheen, allowing 2 hours between coats.
