Surface Preparation
Remove all loose, defective paint or powdery residues, loose chalk, dust, fungus, algae and foreign matter. Treat any areas
affected by fungus growth with Fungicidal Wash Solution. Repair cracks, and uneven surfaces with suitable exterior grade
fillers. Smoothen the filler areas with sandpaper. Surfaces to be painted must be cleaned thoroughly and dry, it must be
free from dirt, grease and other foreign matters. Allow all surfaces to dry completely prior to painting. Avoid painting
when the moisture content and alkalinity of the walls are still high. (Recommended painting specification requires the
moisture content of the walls to be below 16% measured by protimeter and the alkalinity of the walls to be below pH9.)
Spot prime with Nippon Exterior Wall Sealer.
Cleaning
Clean up equipment with water immediately after use.

and does not consider LOSS FASTORS.
Variables like porosity of substrate, application method, dilution ratio, dry film thickness, opacity and so on will affect the
loss factor and can vary from 30% - 50% or even more.
