Begin coating from bottom of siding and work up, immediately back brush any drips or runs, especially when coating primed boards. Apply product at an even rate. To avoid lap marks always keep a wet edge and work to common break points such as windows, doors, corners, etc. On unprimed boards the first coat will penetrate rapidly. Allow first coat to dry for 2 hours before applying second coat.
Primed boards require two coats, unprimed boards require three coats.
To achieve deeper color tones, additional coats of Woodperfect Fiber-Cement Coating may be applied. All end cuts should be coated. Where mars, scratches or imperfections result after installation, touch-up with a brush. Apply coating to the area and feather it into the surrounding finish. For complete reapplication, clean the entire surface with Mason s SelectTM Concrete Cleaner to remove foreign matter and allow 24 hours to dry, then apply coating using a brush, roller or airless sprayer.
