Flood Penetrol Paint Additive for Oil-Based Paints

*****FREE SHIPPING*****

Penetrol® is a free-flowing, low-odor, high quality penetrating paint additive which compensates for the adverse effects that weather and surface conditions have on paints and primers.

• Makes exterior oil and alkyd paints, primers and stains flow more smoothly
• Reduces brush and roller marks
• Increases adhesion to prevent peeling and blistering
• Improves penetration
• Stops and prevents rust
• Restores color to fiberglass

GENERAL PAINTING FOR INTERIOR & EXTERIOR WORK (add to oil-based paint or primers)

DIRECTIONS:
1. Stir and mix oil-based paint thoroughly.
2. Always mix a small amount of Penetrol with the paint you are using to determine compatibility.
3. As paint begins to set up too fast or “drag”, stir in Penetrol. Begin with approximately one pint (16 oz.) Penetrol per gallon of paint.
4. If paint is thick, or in extreme hot or cold temperatures, more Penetrol may be added (up to 2.5 pints per gallon of paint).

Note: For brass, copper, aluminum and chrome, scrub surface with fine steel wool soaked in Penetrol and polish with a clean rag.

CONDITIONING BARE OR RUSTED METAL

DIRECTIONS:
1. Remove loose rust, excess dirt, oil and grease.
2. Be sure surface is dry.
3. Saturate the metal with Penetrol.
4. Allow 12-24 hours for drying.

Note: For brass, copper, aluminum and chrome, scrub surface with fine steel wool soaked in Penetrol and polish with a clean rag.

CONDITIONING FIBERGLASS

DIRECTIONS:
1. Clean surface to be conditioned.
2. Saturate a rag with Penetrol, wipe it on fiberglass surface.
3. Buff surface with a clean, soft cloth within 3-5 minutes.

FAUX FINISHING

DIRECTIONS:
1. Penetrol, mixed directly into oil or alkyd-based paint, will improve the brushability of your paint and level of the base coat
2. Penetrol keeps paint from drying too fast thus increasing the working time of your paint and glazes
3. The more Penetrol you add to the mixture (glaze) the more open time you will have and the more translucent the finish
4. Do not add too much conditioner for vertical surfaces as the technique may cause the paint to sag or vanish
5. Using an empty can or disposable cup as a measuring device, mix 3 volumes of alkyd (oil Paint) to 1 volume of Penetrol.
