water. Rinse thoroughly. Remove loose paint and powdery substances. Patch cracks and
holes with patching paste. Dull any nonporous or glossy surfaces by thorough washing
with an abrasive kitchen cleaner or by scuff sanding. Rinse and/or remove any powdery

residues. Spot prime patched areas before painting entire wall with ENVIRO Paint.

UNPAINTED SURFACES:
Drywall: Fill nail holes and cracks with patching paste. Remove all dirt and loose
material. Spot prime patched areas before priming entire wall with ENVIRO-Primer

Plastered Walls: Surface must be dry, cured and hard. Textured or swirl types and soft,
porous or powdery plaster must be treated with a solution of one pint household vinegar
in one gallon of water. Repeat until surface is hard. Rinse with plain water. Let dry and

apply a coat of ENVIRO Primer Sealer, before painting with ENVIRO paint.

Unprimed ferrous metals must be preprimed with METAL-PRIME RED Rusted Metal
Primer Sealer, a Red Iron Oxide Primer Sealer, before painting with ENVIRO paint.

Masonry: Prime masonry before painting. New masonry must either be sealed
with FORCE CHALK or aged 60 days, before painting with ENVIRO
paint.

APPLICATION PROCEDURE:
Stir well before using. Thinning is not recommended but if necessary, use water

sparingly. Do not apply when temperatures are below 40 degrees Fahrenheit or when
humidity is very high. Apply using brush, roller or spray. When rolling, apply in an N
pattern first, then cross roll to spread paint, and finish with light roller strokes in

downward direction. Always roll or brush from untouched into wet paint areas. Allow
at least 4 hours to dry before applying a second coat. Two coats are required for the
warranty, and a Warranty Registration Certificate must be received by Nationwide
within 90 days of paint application (inquire for details). Wait at least four weeks before

washing the dry paint film.

CLEAN UP:

Clean up all spills, tools and overspray immediately while the coating is still wet with
warm soapy water.
