Use on: New or existing primed interior walls, trim and ceilings (great as a ceiling white paint color). Primed substrates include sheetrock, fully-cured plaster (below 10 pH), masonry, woodwork, trim, doors, baseboards and metal... HH Cabinet and Furniture Paint is also available in signature Uber White.
Pro tip: Account for enough primer and paint to cover the walls and ceilings for a space.
Coverage: One gallon of Healthier Homes Real Zero VOC Interior Paint covers approximately 350 square feet per coat.
Surface preparation: Surfaces should be sanded and free of dirt, grease, mildew and oil. Before application, clean with pressurized air or wipe with an odorless, natural and dye-free all-purpose cleaner. We recommend Healthier Clean All Purpose Cleaner, formulated for use prior to primer and paint application.
To achieve a consistent finish, the surface should be evenly primed with Healthier Homes New Construction Primer or Healthier Homes Reno + Remodel Primer.
- Note: Surfaces painted with water- or oil-based finishes should be scraped, cleaned and sanded. Healthier Homes Reno + Remodel Primer is needed prior to paint application.
Application: Achieve the best finish with one primer coat and two finish coats.
- Before using, stir well.
- Multiple thin coats are recommended.
- For full-coverage application, overlap preceding application with ¼ to ½ the fan width.
- Do not overwork the surface after the paint is applied. Brush lines will disappear after the second coat is dry!
- Let each coat dry for 8 hours in an HVAC conditioned space between applications.
Always ensure adequate ventilation. Do not apply on cold, humid days and/or if the surface, air or container temperature is below 55°F. Turn on the HVAC following application for proper curing. Paint may be thinned with clean water only. Do not use paint thinner!
Rolling specs: Apply with a new, clean, high-quality bristle brush or paint roller.
Spraying specs: Use airless sprayer and painter's masks to avoid accidental inhalation. A 311 spray tip works best. Reduce paint with up to 1/2 pint of clean water per gallon as needed. Remove internal filters from the spray machine prior to application. For best coverage, spray 18" from surface.
Recoating and Dry Time: Under normal conditions, Healthier Homes Real Zero VOC paint can be recoated after 4 hours. For best results, wait at least 8 hours before recoating. Normal conditions include a dry surface, fresh air flow, moderate to low humidity, and temperatures above 55°F. Thick application, high humidity, or conditions other than normal may cause paint to dry slower and/or cure improperly.
Cleanup: Clean equipment while still wet. For best results, use a solution of Healthier Clean All Purpose Cleaner, which is formulated to remove our paints. Mix with warm water.
No special disposal requirements: For disposal, leave the lids off so that unused product hardens. Dispose of it in your normal garbage.
