How to get the perfect look
Prepare
Clean surfaces to avoid problems
You must remove all grease and dirt. Otherwise, the paint will peel or flake off.
Clean the area
Scrub the area with Selleys® Sugar Soap, and then rinse with clean water at least twice.
Use a plastic scouring pad on extremely dirty surfaces, and avoid using abrasive cleaning detergents.
Mix
Get the best results
For the best results, make sure to thoroughly mix the additive into the paint before beginning the application process.
Once mixed, the primer is suitable for use for up to 3 days and the topcoat for 10 days.
Add the additive
Under the blue lid of the primer paint can, you will find an additive packet.
Pour the contents of the packet into the paint.
Apply
Carefully read the instructions
For full instructions, refer to the back of the paint cans.

FAQs
Yes, provided that the area where Renovation Range is intended to be used on is covered and will not be subjected to direct rain and weather. The Renovation Range products are based on UV resistant and water-resistant resins. As such they are capable of resisting undercover outside exposure.
Typically, benchtops in the kitchens, bathrooms and laundries we expect Renovation Range to be used on benchtops made from laminate. However, if they are made from tiles or natural stone – other than marble – they can be coated.
The Renovation Range products are NOT scratch proof but have good wear character that develops over a period of days.
It is important not to use knives or other instruments to cut, smash or otherwise impact the surface during preparation of food. These activities should always be done on a separate cutting board or similar.
Where possible, “lift and locate” heavy items on benchtops coated with Renovation Range to avoid pushing them across the surface and potentially causing a scratch.
Mask stoves, dishwashers and other appliances with smooth painter’s tape. Be diligent about pressing in the edge to ensure none of the coating will bleed through. Place drop cloths over surfaces not to be coated especially floors.
