Bare Steel. Onto sandblasted steel according to SA 2,5  apply one coat of EPOFOND AM-9. If sandblasting would not be possible degrease the surface and remove any trace of corrosion providing a suitable anchor pattern. Any loose paint should be meccanically removed. Apply 2 coats of EPOFOND AM-9 primer and let dry. Fill up if necessary with PLAMUR FINISHER MDF. Apply then one coat of POLIFOND primer, let dry for 24 hours and sandpaper. Overcoat with 2 coats of SPACE TOP ENAMEL allowing 18-24 hours between coats.

Fibreglass. The surface to be coated should be degreased with suitable cleaner, rinsed and slightly sanded with fine abrasive paper. Remove dust and clean the surface. If the surface is slightly powdering it is necessary to apply one coat of POLIFIBER PRIMER allowing 18-24 hours between coats. Fill up if necessary with PLAMUR FINISHER MDF. Overcoat with 2 coats of SPACE TOP ENAMEL allowing 24 hours between coats.

Previously painted wood. Proceed with a patch test on a small area of the coated surface to verify if the old paint is compatible and to make sure that the old coating is still in sound condition. If the old coating is in good conditions and of 2-pack polyurethane nature, apply then one coat of POLIFOND and let dry for 12-24 hours. Sandpaper and overcoat with 2 coats of SPACE TOP ENAMEL allowing 18-24 hours between coats.
