Previously Enamel-Painted Surfaces: Sand thoroughly to provide a suitable key, remove all sanding residue and apply a suitable Genkem primer or undercoat before applying Premium Plus Hygiene.
Bare Metal: Do not apply directly to bare metal. Prime exposed metal using a suitable metal primer before coating.
Critical: Do not apply below 10 Cor during wet or cold weather. Apply only to thoroughly dry surfaces. Correct surface preparation and priming are essential for maximum adhesion and durability. The product must be applied undiluted and should not be overspread.
