Surface Preparation
Before applying Primax Hi-Build Synthetic Enamel, make sure the surface is dry, clean and free from dust, grease, oil, rust, loose paint and other contamination. Proper preparation helps improve adhesion, gloss and final finish quality.
For wood surfaces, sand properly to remove roughness and old loose coating. For metal surfaces, remove rust and flaking paint by sanding, scraping or wire brushing. Use a suitable primer or undercoat where required before enamel application.
A clean and stable base helps the enamel flow better and gives the final surface a smoother, glossier and more professional appearance.

Common Mistakes to Avoid
Painting on Dusty or Oily Surfaces
Dust, grease and oil can reduce adhesion and spoil the gloss finish. Always clean the surface properly before painting.
Skipping Rust Removal on Metal
Rust and loose paint should be removed before application. Painting over weak areas can reduce durability and finish quality.
Poor Sanding on Wood
Rough wood can affect smoothness and gloss. Sand the surface properly and remove dust before applying enamel.
Over-Thinning the Enamel
Excessive thinning can reduce coverage, gloss and film strength. Follow the recommended thinning ratio.
Recoating Too Early
Allow proper drying before recoating. Early recoating can affect adhesion, gloss retention and final finish quality.
