The surface to be painted must be dry, the temperature of the air at least +5°C and the relative humidity below 80% during painting and drying.
Surface preparation
Unpainted surfaces: Wash moldy surfaces with Tikkurila Homeenpoisto solution according to instructions. Prime the surface at the earliest possible stage of construction with Tikkurila priming oil. Protect any metal parts prone to rust, such as nail heads, with Rostex Super Akva Metal Primer. Remove loose resin from knots. Prime the surfaces with a single coat of Teho Primer (old and worn surfaces in particular) or Ultra Primer. Industrially primed and previously painted surfaces or surfaces treated with wood stain: Wash moldy surfaces with Tikkurila Homeenpoisto solution according to instructions. Remove loose scales from the previously treated wood surface with a scraper and brush the surface clean with a wire brush. Treat the bare wood surfaces with Tikkurila priming oil and prime with a single coat of Teho Primer (old and worn surfaces) or Ultra Primer.
Painting
First coat:
Finish the surfaces with 1–2 coats of Ultra Special, depending on the color difference between the substrate and the paint and the condition of the surface being painted. Stir the paint well and thin with water if necessary. Apply Ultra Special with a brush or an airless spray gun and brush. Treat the ends of boards with particular care. Wood has knots that can bleed resin and other extractives through the painted surface due to variations in temperature and humidity. This natural property of wood will stain the paint on top of the knots.
Maintenance Painting:
Maintenance painting over Ultra Special can be performed with Ultra Special (in the first instance), Pika-Teho or Ultra series house paints.
Maintenance Instructions
If a surface needs cleaning soon after treatment, use a soft brush. In normal conditions, the painted surface will reach its final hardness and durability in approximately 4 weeks. After one month from painting, a dirty surface can be cleaned with Talon Huoltopesu (mix 1 part of Talon Huoltopesu with 10 parts of water). Clean stains and very dirty surfaces with a stronger Talon Huoltopesu solution (1:1). After washing, rinse the surfaces and allow to dry.
