APPLICATION GUIDE
APPLICATION GUIDE
-
Surface Preparation: Ensure all surfaces are completely clean, dry, and entirely free from dust, grease, or loose debris. Fill all cracks and imperfections with an appropriate crack filler, followed by a matching primer.
-
Pro-Tip for Smoothness: For a beautifully smooth, uniform finish, treat your walls with Apollo Paints Skimming Filler / Skim Coat before your base application.
-
New Unpainted Cement or Plaster: Apply 1 coat of Apollo Paints Universal Undercoat (or Emulsion Undercoat), followed cleanly by 2–3 coats of Jambo Emulsion.
-
Previously Painted Surfaces: Clean away loose, flaking, or powdery materials. Apply 1 coat of Apollo Paints Undercoat, followed by 2–3 coats of Jambo Emulsion.
-
The 2-Coat Rule: When re-decorating using the same colors, two coats are highly recommended for full structural coverage.
-
Note on High-Opacity Shades: When overcoating a dark shade with a light tone, or when painting deep colors (like bright Orange, Green, or Caterpillar), an additional coat will be required due to lower natural opacity.
HEALTH AND SAFETY
HEALTH AND SAFETY
-
Application Environment: Do not apply when ambient temperatures fall below 10°C. Always stir the paint thoroughly before and during use, use a high-quality brush, and paint in a single, smooth, unified motion.
-
Health & Safety: Ensure excellent ventilation during application and drying phases. Avoid skin and eye contact; in case of contact, flush immediately with clean water and seek medical attention if irritation persists. Do not inhale or inject.
-
Fungal Pre-Treatment: In high-humidity areas, wash walls with a recommended bio-wash solution to destroy existing surface fungus growth, spores, or mould before applying paint.
-
Stain Maintenance: For easy stain removal, gently sponge walls using a mild soap or detergent solution and wipe clean. Ensure the surface is completely cured for maximum washability performance.
