Storage

Must be protected from frost. Store in a dry and cool place, protected from sunlight. Tinted paint or opened container does not withstand long-term storage. Close the can carefully for the next use.


Application Conditions

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


Surface preparation

Unpainted surfaces: Remove dirt and dust from the surfaces. If necessary, fill the surfaces with a suitable Tikkurila Presto or Prestonit filler and sand the dried surface. Remove the sanding dust. Prime with Siro 2 or Ykköspohja. Previously painted surfaces: Wash the surfaces with diluted Maalipesu detergent . Sand painted surfaces matte and remove any sanding dust. Fill the cracks and holes with a suitable Tikkurila Presto or Prestonit filler and sand the dried surface. Remove the sanding dust. Prime with Siro 2 or Ykköspohja, if required.


Painting

First coat:

Stir Siro 1-2 well before use and thin with water, if necessary. Apply 1-2 times with a roller, spray or brush.


Maintenance Painting:

Surfaces painted with Siro 12 can be maintenance painted with the same or similar water-borne paint. See Pretreatment.


Cleaning of tools

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


Maintenance Instructions

If needed, after approx. 1 month from treating the surface, at the earliest. The surfaces are cleaned with a dry brush or dust towel. Dirty surfaces are cleaned with a damp cleaning tool moistened in a neutral (pH 6-8) washing solution. The surface may not remain wet after cleaning. Follow the dilution instructions given by the detergent manufacturer when mixing the cleaning solution. The product achieves its final hardness and durability after one month under normal conditions, and therefore the surfaces must be handled with care during this time. If the surfaces need to be cleaned soon after finishing, clean them gently with a dry or damp cleaning cloth.


VOC

(cat A/a) max. 30g/l (2010). Siro 12 contains VOC max. 10g/l.
