Sand hard or glossy surfaces to a matt finish and remove sanding dust. If necessary, prime with Feelings Universal Primer or Varma Primer.

Maintenance instructions

Cleaning earliest abt. 1 month after application of the finish, if needed. 

The surfaces are cleaned with a sponge or cleaning cloth and neutral (pH 6-8) washing detergent. Very dirty surfaces are cleaned with a sponge or cleaning cloth and alkaline (pH 8 – 10) washing detergent. Rinse carefully. Dilution instructions given by the detergent producer have to be followed when preparing the washing dilution. 

The product achieves its final hardness and durability after one month under normal conditions, therefore the surfaces must be handled with care during this time. If the surfaces need to be cleaned soon after finishing, clean them lightly with a damp cleaning cloth.

Surfaces painted with Remontti-Ässä can be maintenance painted with same kind of waterborne paint.
