Fusion Mineral Paint Willowbank

Superior to English and American chalk paints, ultra-adhesive FUSION mineral paint can be applied to all surfaces, without primer or undercoat. It is ready to use and provides a matte finish, just as authentic as milk paint. Fusion paint does not require a topcoat, but you can apply one to create more lustrous or distressed effects or to increase protection against water and friction. Fusion mineral paint is very durable and easy to apply. It offers excellent coverage which, in almost all cases, requires only one coat.

Features:

• Ultra-adhesive
• Indoor and outdoor application
• 500ml format / 75 sq. ft. coverage
• Odorless
• Self-leveling
• Easy application

PREPARATION: THE SURFACE MUST BE CLEAN AND DRY. CLEAN WITH PHOSPHATE-FREE ORGANIC TSP DEGREASER. SURFACES OTHER THAN BARE WOOD SHOULD BE LIGHTLY SANDED. FOR GLASS, METAL, OR GLOSSY PLASTIC, WE RECOMMEND APPLYING A COAT OF HOMESTEAD HOUSE ADHESION AGENT FIRST.

APPLICATION: FUSION IS APPLIED WITH A "BLUE JEANS" SYNTHETIC BRISTLE BRUSH

OR, FOR A SMOOTHER FINISH, USE A VERY DENSE BRISTLE BRUSH LIKE THE STAALMEESTER OVAL BRUSH. IT ALSO APPLIES VERY WELL WITH A ROLLER. MIX THE PAINT WELL BEFORE APPLICATION. ALL COLORS CAN BE MIXED TOGETHER TO CREATE A MULTITUDE OF SHADES.

To create a distressed effect: use the wax stick to prevent the paint from adhering to areas you want to distress. WARNING: Varnish does not adhere to wax.

FINISH: THE PAINT IS DRY TO THE TOUCH AFTER TWO TO THREE HOURS.

To create an antique (worn) effect, sand the surfaces with SIASPONGE flexible waterproof abrasive sponges.

Although not mandatory, adding a topcoat will improve the luster and durability, and will make the painted surface much easier to maintain.

Apply wax after 4 hours. You can use Fusion wax, Homestead House waxes, and colorless or colored Carbamex paste wax to create patinas.

Wait 24 hours after application before applying the Fusion protective sealer or a varnish like Blanchon Initial for surfaces exposed to moisture and abrasion. For outdoor surfaces, use Blanchon Marine Varnish.
