LM 3

Water-borne, full-matte primer and ceiling paint for interior use.

For interior painting of concrete, plaster, filler-treated, plasterboard, chipboard and wood fiberboard surfaces according to instructions.

Ceiling and wall surfaces in dry interior spaces.

Smooth surfaces: approx. 7–10 m²/l. Coarse surfaces: 4–6 m²/l.

Waterborne

The surface to be painted must be dry, the temperature at least +5°C and the relative humidity of the air below 80%.

Unpainted surfaces: Clean the surfaces by removing any dirt and dust. If necessary, level the surfaces with a suitable Tikkurila Presto filler and sand the dried surface. Remove the sanding dust. Previously painted surfaces: Wash previously painted surfaces with diluted Maalipesu cleaning agent. Sand the painted surfaces non-glossy. Remove the sanding dust. Fill any cracks and holes with a suitable Presto filler and sand the dried surface. Remove the sanding dust.

First coat:

Stir LM 3 well before use and thin with water, if necessary. Apply 1–2 coats by roller, brush or spray.

Maintenance Painting:

Surfaces painted with LM 3 can be maintenance painted with the same or similar water-borne paint.

Remove excess paint from tools and wash with water. Tikkurila Pensselipesu is recommended for paint that has hardened to a certain extent.

If needed, approx. one month after surface treatment at the earliest. The surfaces are preferably dry-cleaned by using a vacuum cleaner, soft brush or dust cloth. Damp cleaning can leave marks on the surface, especially on dark shades. After surface treatment, surfaces must be handled with care for a few weeks, as the product will reach its final hardness and durability after about a month under normal conditions. If a surface needs to be cleaned soon after the surface treatment, preferably dry-clean it by using a vacuum cleaner, soft brush or dust cloth.
