• Wood: Sand the surface in the direction of the wood grain to a smooth finish. Wipe off all dust. Spot-prime any scraped areas with an appropriate undercoat.

• Metal: Ferrous substrates should be sanded or wire-brushed to remove rust and mill scale (St 2 or St 3 standard). Clean off dust and ensure the surface is dry before priming.

• Previously Painted Surfaces: Remove all loose, flaking, or defective paint. Lightly sand sound existing coatings to provide a mechanical "key" for better adhesion.
