New Coat High Temp Paint is a self-priming, silicone-based, low-sheen, heat resistant paint that withstands continuous temperatures up to 350°C (and up to 500°C for short time periods). It may be painted directly onto cast iron, steel, and stainless steel. Suitable for pot-belly stoves, heaters, ovens, flues, barbecues, and exhaust manifolds.
Directions:
- PREPARATION: Clean the surface thoroughly. Remove all traces of grease, oil, dirt, and rust. Sand previously painted surfaces lightly. Wipe with mineral turps and allow to dry.
- APPLICATION: Choose a dry, well-ventilated area. Stir thoroughly. Apply in thin coats. Two coats are usually sufficient. Lightly sand between coats. Do not paint below 5°C or in high humidity.
- DRY TIME: Touch dry in 1-2 hours. Handle in 4-6 hours. Recoat after 16 hours. Longer drying time is needed in cold or damp/humid weather. Allow 24hrs between drying and curing.
- CURING: It is important that the article is cured to achieve hard-dry conditions. Ensure good ventilation. Raise the heat gradually. Fumes and smoke may be emitted during this time. When using the heater for the first time after painting, make a gentle fire for the first 30 minutes.
- CLEAN UP: Clean brushes and equipment with mineral turps after use.
