Important tips: Strong possibility of yellowing in low light conditions. CANT0 Natural White Satin Paint No. 625 contains little solvent, so it tends to develop a skin quickly. Before stirring, simply remove the skin. Transfer unused portion of product into a smaller container for storage in order to minimize excess air. All coats should be applied as sparingly as possible. Also when using spraying devices, allow each thin coat to dry completely. Applying product too thickly can result in insufficient drying, yellowing, the development of fine cracks, and an uneven gloss finish. Do not paint over silicone objects. For bookshelves and window sills, apply very thinly and allow drying for 4 weeks before loading with books or flowerpots. The manufacturer assumes no liability for the consequences - such as faulty adhesion or the development of odours — if this product is painted over with other manufacturer's varnishes.

Cleaning of the Surface: Slight soiling can be cleaned off with TRENA pH Neutral Cleaner No. 556 diluted in water. Heavy soiling can be removed with TRENA 1:5 (TRENA/Water) followed by a thorough wipe-down with a moist cloth.
