APPLICATION

• Stir Samson Chill Roof thoroughly with paddle before use.
• Apply minimum of 2 full coats – undiluted, using roller, brush or airless spray.
• Allow 4-6 hours @ 25°C drying time between coats. Drying times may vary with temperature and humidity.
• Do not apply in cold, wet weather. Ensure roof not too cold or damp, avoid excessive roof temperatures
• Complete obliteration of roof surface is required to maximize the Samson Chill Roof TSR and cooling effects. For optimum TSR results use Samson Chill Roof WHITE as a base coat and thereafter two coats of Samson Chill Roof in the colour of your choice.
