If the Satin Agg is added, agitate often with the roller each time additional material is needed.

AUS-V™ should be applied on a dry day when the surface and ambient temperatures are between 40 to 90 degrees Fahrenheit / 4.4 to 32.2 degrees Celsius. The surface to be coated must be dry and free of moisture, debris, dust, oil, etc. that will interfere with bonding and cure. Do not apply AUS-V™ on foggy or rainy days.

These variations arise due to different computer monitors and devices (make, model and technology, as well as resolution, contrast and brightness control settings) in much the same way a scan will differ from an original image and a colour photocopy. Furthermore, coatings can exhibit variation in perceived colour depending on gloss level and application method. If you require a very specific colour match, please make your selection via actual swatches and colour boards available at our showroom.
