Unpainted surfaces:
New plaster and concrete substrates can be painted after 4 weeks of seasoning. Clean these surfaces from dust and dirt, smooth out irregularities and losses with putty. In case when unevenness of the surface is considerable, the wall should be even with leveling mortar and afterwards apply on the whole surface smooth putty. In case of small unevenness you may apply smooth putty at once. The use of above mentioned mortars and putty should be done according to data sheets of these products. Machine plaster with visible glossy sinter surface should be sanded and clean from dust. Then apply one coat of Tikkurila Optiva Primer.

Wash the surface before coating and remove grease and dirt and loose and flaking fragments of old coat. Sand glossy surfaces and smooth out irregularities and losses with putty.

Prime the whole of substrate with Tikkurila Optiva Primer. he priming can be omitted only if the existing coating is perfectly preserved (the producer is not responsible for the incorrect assessment of the actual substrate).

Surfaces painted with glue or lime paint:
