RECYCLED PAINT
Made from recycled pigments, TRANSITION paint offers high coverage. This product is designed to be applied over a dark colour when you want to cover with a light colour of FUSION™ Mineral Paint.
WHAT IS TRANSITION?
TRANSITION does not have the same adhesion or durability as our FUSION™ Mineral Paint. It is made using recycled pigments, which is why it is lower cost! TRANSITION is not a primer and does not seal or block the passage of resin or tannin, and should be used on ready and prepared surfaces. Be sure to use a shellac-based primer to prevent tannin bleed through.
PREPARATION:
Let dry 2 to 4 hours between each coat of paint.
Surface must be clean and dry. Clean with our phosphate-free TSP organic degreaser. Surfaces other than bare wood must be lightly sanded. For glass, metal or glossy plastic, we recommend applying a coat of Bonding Agent beforehand.
APPLICATION:
If applied over a FUSION™ Mineral Paint: Clean the surface with our TSP, allow to dry and apply one coat of FUSION™ Mineral Paint. Apply one coat of TRANSITION. Cover with FUSION™.
If applied over varnish or other finish: TRANSITION is not as adherent as FUSION™ Mineral Paint, it is not applied as a first coat. It is designed to save you a coat of paint if you want to paint white on a dark surface. Prepare the surface properly and apply one coat of FUSION™. Let dry and apply one to two coats of TRANSITION depending on the colour. Cover with FUSION™.
FINISH:
Must be covered with a coat of FUSION™ Mineral Paint. TRANSITION is not designed to be applied as a topcoat.
