MULTISPEC ROLLER APPLICATION
OVER PROTECTED EXTERIOR VERTICAL SURFACES
(Under Eaves, Above-Ground Foundations)

Step 1 / Required or Optional - Depending on Surface to be Covered - Prep and Prime
Clean surface thoroughly. Using a short nap roller or brush, apply one coat of Multispec textured, adhesion promoting basecoat (SE1 White for Multispec WaterColors or SE2 Gray for Stone Accents). Basecoat improves Multispec rolling properties, particularly over smooth or previously painted surfaces.

Step 2 / Required – Apply Multispec
Using a Speckle Effects special open cell reticulated foam roller cover, roll Multispec over the basecoated surface. Load roller fully, roll slowly and gently to minimize spattering and achieve optimal coverage. Use Speckle Effects 3” roller cover or corner roller to cut-in and paint corners.

Step 3 / Optional – Apply Clear Topcoat
Apply 1 to 2 coats of high performance, exterior grade, clear, water repellant protective topcoat such as Plioshield^TM. First coat will seal the Multispec and second coat will provide greater protection from sunlight and the elements.

Note

• Textured/absorbent surfaces (like masonry) may not require basecoat.
• When using Multispec WaterColors which do not contain white flecks, SE1 White Basecoat should be tinted to match predominant fleck color in WaterColors.
• Allow individual coats to dry thoroughly before recoating.
• Follow manufacturer’s label instructions and application guidelines for coatings, equipment and tools.
• For a smooth finish, spray apply Multispec. Refer to spray application guidelines.
