Interior Wood Particle Board

Surface Preparation

All new wood surfaces must be cured, clean, sound, dry and free of all dirt, dust, efflorescence, wax, oil, grease, chalk and any other contamination that would interfere with new coating adhesion. Sand smooth. Patch nail holes and any imperfections with wood filler or putty and sand smooth. Remove sanding dust. On previously painted surfaces, be sure the surface is free of all contaminants and dull all glossy surfaces by sanding. Performance will be directly related to the degree of surface preparation.

*Zero Plus is designated zero VOC (volatile organic compounds) based on EPA Method 24. All zero VOC paints emit chemicals. This paint emits chemicals during and for approximately two weeks after painting but at much lower levels than conventional latex paints. Sensitive groups should minimize exposure during painting and for 24 hours after. “Zero VOC” does not mean “asthma/allergy friendly.”
