Product description
Pre-treatment
- The substrate must be clean and dry.
- Clean with Gjøco Interiørvask or Gjøco Husvask and rinse well with clean water.
- Previously painted surfaces, MDF, and hard, smooth surfaces should be sanded down and primed with Gjøco Proff Heft.
- Discolored surfaces should be primed with Gjøco Proff Isolèr to prevent bleed-through.
- Untreated masonry, absorbent surfaces, and previously limewashed surfaces should be scraped, brushed, and cleaned before priming with Gjøco Primer for masonry and concrete.
Application
- Proff Uno is ready for use and should normally not be thinned.
- Apply 1–2 coats as needed.
- On absorbent surfaces, it may be necessary to apply several coats to avoid patchy results.
- Use a roller with an extension pole to avoid lap marks.
- To achieve a uniform result, roll full lengths in the same direction across the entire wall.
Note
- Use the same production number for the same coat and surface to avoid differences in gloss and color.
- If necessary, different production numbers can be mixed before use.
- Shade differences may occur if the bucket is tinted on different tinting machines and/or at different times. Be aware of this if more paint is needed for the same project later.
