Preparation: |
| A
clean, dry, dull surface is optimal for painting. Wash
your walls with mild soap and rinse thoroughly. Scrape
any loose paint, patch any holes, and sand smooth. Remove
dust with a vacuum or tack cloth. WARNING! Removal
of old paint by sanding, scraping, or other means may
generate dust or fumes that contain lead. Exposure to
lead dust or fumes may cause brain damage or other adverse
health effects, especially in children or pregnant women.
Controlling exposure to lead or other hazardous substances
requires the use of proper protective equipment, such
as a properly fitted respirator (NIOSH-approved) and
proper containment and cleanup.
For more information, call the National Lead Information
Center at 1-800-424-LEAD (in U.S.) or contact your local
health authority.

Step 1
Mask ceilings, baseboards, and trim with painter's tape.
With a brush, cut in an 18-inch section along the edge
of the ceiling and wall with illusions® SandScapes™
finish. Then roll on a thick layer of SandScapes™,
filling in an 18-inch x 18-inch section. Step
2
As soon as you complete an 18-inch floor-to-ceiling
column, roll over it lightly with a thin layer of SandScapes™.
Repeat steps 1 and 2 until you've covered the entire
room, overlapping each section to maintain a wet edge.
Allow this first coat to dry at least four hours. This
first coat will appear uneven when dry.
Step 3
Roll on a SandScapes™ topcoat using the same method
you used for the first coat. Allow to dry at least 24
hours.
