2 APPLICATION OF METALLIC PAINT
The Boero Metallic Paint creates a fine metallic finish and can be applied using a microfiber roller, brush, trowel or spray equipment.
Random Rolled Pattern: Dilute 5%-10% with water. Using a microfiber, mini roller in corners and edges and a 9” microfiber roller in the large areas, apply the Boero Metallic Paint in random rolled directions (up, down and diagonally, creating random “curving X’s”) You may roll the Boero Metallic Paint in a normal vertical manner and then immediately “Back-Roll” using microfiber mini roller to create the random pattern. Avoid allowing the Boero Metallic Paint to dry with vertical lines as this may create unwanted “striping”.
