Description
EUROLUX Interior satin is an odorless, high performance waterborne finish suitable for all properly prepared interior surfaces. Eurolux may be applied over sound existing latex or oil finishes without priming, although better appearance and enhanced durability will result if the surface is first primed with the appropriate FPE Primer. Eurolux Satin White is a non-yellowing coating and recommended for use in those areas of the home in which previous alkyd has yellowed as the result of insufficient sunlight. Eurolux is extremely easy to work with as it dries quickly and is completely free of odor. The VOC of Eurolux Satin is the lowest VOC of any high-quality, waterborne satin finish in the world. This remarkable paint is as scrubbable as oil enamel, which makes it ideal for the active lifestyle. A Eurolux Interior Satin application can normally be expected to yield ten to fifteen years of beauty, pleasure and service.
IMPORTANT NOTE
Fine Paints of Europe sells paint systems. We do not sell individual products for use with primers from other manufacturers. Please make certain that you are using the correct Fine Paints of Europe primer specified for your coating.
Coverage rates with Fine Paints of Europe are dramatically better than with domestic coatings when used with one of our “high build- high tooth” primers. Never apply a Fine Paints of Europe paint to a surface which has been primed with a sealer such as Shellac, Bin™ or Kilz™. These are fine products when used for their intended purpose but they do not provide adequate friction for great adhesion with our coatings.
APPLICATION
Eurolux flows easily and spreads quickly, but do not overwork with brush or roller. Do not apply at temperatures below 40˚F or above 80˚F, or when relative humidity exceeds 80%. Surfaces must be dry, clean and free from grease. New wood should be primed with ECO Primer/Undercoat. Walls and ceilings should be primed with Eurolux Primer before receiving EUROLUX Satin topcoats. EUROLUX Satin is normally rolled or brushed in a two-coat application. For both aesthetic and financial reasons, we recommend that you roll this finish as far as it will go before going back to the pan to reload your roller.
Please note: Fine Paints of Europe recognizes spray application as an excellent method to apply our coatings, however we do not consult on the specifications nor the equipment needed to do so.
