Directions For Use

Performance of Expa Cool Exterior Emulsion critically depends on surface preparation and application as outlined below:

Newly plastered surface should be painted with Expa Cool only after 2-3 month of curing of plasters.
Before painting the surface should be brushed free from dust, loose/ chalky particles, fungus, algae etc.
Previously painted surface with oil paint should be sanded thoroughly to make surface dull and matt for better adhesion, Surface previously coated with cement paint should be wire brushed and washed with water.
The first coat thinned should be applied at recommended dilution on moistened surface. It should be allowed to dry for minimum of 4 hours under normal weather conditions, before the second coat is applied at the same dilution.
Expa Exterior Emulsion can be brushed or rolled.

Note: Cooling of surface by up to 5 Degree C is applicable only for white and light shades only.
