Exterior project planning
- Air temperature
- Check manufacturer instructions
- Surface temperature
- Check manufacturer instructions
- Conditions after application
- 4 hours
Apply above 3°C; the current English TDS also says not to apply when air is below 3°C. Do not apply above 85% relative humidity or when temperatures are forecast to drop below 3°C within 4 hours. Use a clean, dry, properly prepared surface. No maximum air temperature, general surface-temperature bound or numeric rain-free period is specified. For concrete masonry units, block filler or masonry surfacer is a separate preparation step requiring air, surface and material temperatures of at least 10°C; let it dry before this topcoat.
Check the air, the actual surface, overnight conditions and the full drying or curing period. The current product label takes precedence.
Recommended uses
exterior siding, concrete & masonry, metal surfaces.
