How to paint plastisol

AllCoat® offers outstanding adhesion for this difficult to paint substrate.

Steps

1. Surface Preparation / Sealing

All surfaces must be clean, dry and free from anything that will interfere with the adhesion of the materials to be applied. Remove loose and failing material by scraping or brushing with a stiff bristle brush to a sound edge. Feather sound edges with a fine grade abrasive paper. Remove all visible signs of organic growth and treat the areas with Zinsser Mould Killer in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. Allow to dry. For any areas with remaining sound paint clean down with Zinsser Universal Cleaner & Degreaser to remove any contaminants. Rinse thoroughly with clean water to remove all residues. Allow to dry.

 

Plastisol should be fully weathered, if in doubt a test should be carried out on a small area and assessed for adhesion to determine suitability for painting.

2. Patch Priming, Bring Forward and Priming

Patch prime all bare areas with chosen finished product in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. Allow a minimum drying time of 1 hour in normal drying conditions. Bring forward patch primed areas with Zinsser AllCoat® Exterior Satin or Gloss. Allow to dry. Prime overall with one full coat of Zinsser AllCoat® Exterior Satin or Gloss in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. Allow a minimum drying time of 1 hour in normal drying conditions.

3. Decoration

Decorate with one to two coats of Zinsser AllCoat® Exterior Satin or Gloss in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. Allow a minimum drying time of one hour between coats.
