When rolling, use only a high-quality short nap 3\/8” roller cover. Apply using thin coats. For the smoothest possible finish, thin the paint approximately 10% using water. Tropikote has a tendency for settling to occur, especially if the paint has been on the shelf for several months. Thoroughly mix the paint before using. Before using, check the sides and bottom of the can to make sure all the pigment has been mixed in.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFinish: Semi-Gloss\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCoverage:  320 Sq Ft\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eApplication Method: Bursh, Rolling, Airless Sprayer\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaximum Roller Thickness: 3\/8” Nap\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNumber of Coats: 2\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWet Film Thickness: 5.0 mils\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDry Film Thickness: 2.2 mils\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eApplication Temp: 50° F Min\/ 95° F Max\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThinner: Sea Hawk 2033 Paint Thinner (10% maximum)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDrying Times\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSubstrate Temp.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTouch Dry\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMin\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMax\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMinimum Launch\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e73°F\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e2 hours\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e1 hour\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eN\/A\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e12 hours\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e95°F\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e1 hour\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e1 hour\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eN\/A\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e12 hours\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSurface Preparation and Application\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePreviously Painted Surfaces\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKnown Compatibility of existing antifoulant\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePower wash to remove any loose paint or other contaminants.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eScuff sand with 80 grit sandpaper, remove all residue and let dry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eApply minimum 2 coats of Tropikote.
