Application

For best results, apply Flextex VT over a primer-surfacer sanded with 320 grit.

To build texture, apply 3 to 5 light “speckle” coats allowing flash time between coats. Move gun quickly and don’t flow out the paint. Reduce fluid flow at gun for light coats. Let dry 30 minutes if light coats are applied and 2 to 3 hours for heavier applications before top coating.

Flextex VT may be top coated with a lacquer-compatible topcoat system.

Clean spray gun immediately after use with lacquer thinner.

Texturing Reference

Use a test panel for determining the texture desired. Painting with limited amounts of reducer, larger nozzle, and low air pressure at the gun will produce the coarsest texture. For finer textures, reduce the paint with the appropriate Flextex VT reducer.

Heavy Texture: Spray Flextex VT mixed 8:1 (paint:reducer) using a 1.8 mm spray gun at 10-15 psi.

Medium Texture: Spray Flextex VT mixed 3:1 (paint:reducer) using a 1.4 mm spray gun at 10-15 psi.

Fine Texture: Spray Flextex VT mixed 1:1 (paint:reducer) using a 1.4 mm spray gun at 10-15 psi.
