ARCHITRAVE & TRIM Low Lustre

Architrave & Trim Low Lustre is a durable, marine quality, alkyd enamel suitable for use on wood, metal and wall surfaces. Architrave & Trim Low Lustre is suitable for use on all sound, properly primed interior and exterior surfaces. Apply a minimum of two thin, even coats. Architrave & Trim Low Lustre dries to the touch in 4 hours, but should dry for 24 hours before recoating. This coating will yield optimal appearance and performance when applied to a surface primed with Christopher Peacock Oil Undercoat.

New unpainted surfaces: After sanding and removing dust, apply one coat of Christopher Peacock Oil Undercoat. After sanding Undercoat smooth with 220 grit sandpaper and removing all dust, apply 2 thin, even coats of Architrave & Trim Low Lustre.

Previously painted surfaces: Surfaces previously painted with an oil finish in sound condition may be repainted with Architrave & Trim Low Lustre after lightly sanding and cleaning to remove dust and foreign materials. Surfaces previously painted with a latex or acrylic paint or a paint of unknown composition should be harshly sanded and then primed with Christopher Peacock Oil Undercoat, which should be sanded smooth with 220 grit sandpaper prior to the application of two finish coats of Architrave & Trim Low Lustre.

Architrave & Trim Low Lustre should be applied in thin, even coats with a good quality, natural bristle brush (Omega brushes recommended) or sprayed. Do not apply at temperatures below 50 degrees Fahrenheit or above 80 degrees Fahrenheit, or when relative humidity exceeds 80%. Under normal environmental conditions, this product requires no thinning. Stir well before use.
