Steps to Follow For Applying Duram Braai Paint

Preparation

1. Clean and prepare the surface by removing all loose paint, rust, and contaminants.
2. For unpainted surfaces, lightly scuff with 180-grit sandpaper to improve adhesion.
3. If repainting, fully remove the previous paint and abrade it with coarse sandpaper before wiping it with a damp cloth.

How to Apply Duram Braai Paint

1. Stir the paint thoroughly with a flat paddle for at least 5 minutes.
2. Use a brush or foam enamel roller to apply two thin, even coats. Avoid using a thick layer.
3. Let the first coat dry for 1 to 2 hours before applying the second coat.
4. Avoid overworking the paint to prevent brush marks.

Cleanup

• Clean tools with appropriate cleaning solutions or mineral spirits immediately after use.
