Application instructions:

1. Fill nail holes with Fix Wood Patch. Do not use plastic wood.
2. Sand specific areas with 120 sandpaper to clear blemishes.
3. After taking care of holes and blemishes, sand the entire piece uniformly with 180-grade sandpaper. Finer sandpaper or steel wool should not be used as they polish the surface off too smoothly.
4. Remove dust with a vacuum and tack cloth.
5. Stir the paint thoroughly before beginning and occasionally during application to ensure a uniform color.
6. This product can be used with or without a primer sealer on our wood products. Without a sealer, knots in pine will bleed through in the tradition of buttermilk paints.
7. If you have not provided a primer, please follow these instructions:
   • Apply the first coat of paint directly to the wood surface with a quality brush.
   • After it has thoroughly dried, sand the piece lightly with a 3M sanding pad or 600-grade sandpaper to smooth down the grain.
   • Remove dust with a vacuum and tack cloth.
   • Apply a second coat of paint and allow it to dry thoroughly before use.
   • An additional top coat is not necessary.
8. If you have provided a primer sealer such as BIN, please follow these instructions below:
   • Apply one or two coats of primer as needed.
   • Once the sealer has dried, sand the piece lightly with a 3M sanding pad or 600-grade sandpaper to smooth the surface.
   • Remove dust with a vacuum and tack cloth.
   • Apply two coats of paint as directed in step seven above.
   • An additional top coat is not necessary.
