1. PRODUCT NAME:
Multispec Stone Accents
2. MANUFACTURER:
Multicolor Specialties, Inc. 1200 South Storbeck Drive Waupun WI 53963
3. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Material: Durable, fast drying waterborne decorative multicolor paint for interior and protected vertical exterior applications.
Limitations: Freezable and heat sensitive. Requires knowledgeable applicator and specific spray equipment. Sizes: Gallons, quarts and 5-gallon pails. Shipping weight 9.8 lbs. per gallon.
Patterns and Colors: Random dispersion of various size flecks of different colors. Multicolors are manufactured to specification and delivered ready to use.
Composition and Materials: Waterborne paint droplets suspended in an immiscible water phase.
Suitable applications: Interior and protected exterior surfaces, walls, floors, ceilings, trim and accessories.

• Too much pressure on roller or too much rolling may damage color flecks and change multicolor appearance.
• Start rolling from unpainted toward painted areas whenever possible. Roll gently.
• Fast strokes cause paint to spatter.
• Avoid rolling on partially dried areas to avoid lifting.
• For best results, apply when temperature of paint surface and air are between 60°-90° F. at low humidity.
Spray Application: For spray application use an HVLP 4 stage turbine equipment with a pressure pot and a 2.0 mm or larger projector set; or an ASME dual regulated pressure pot with an HVLP or conventional spraygun with a 1.7 to 2.2 mm fluid tip setup with an external nozzle only. Conventional air spray equipment will decrease fleck pattern size. Ask dealer for spray equipment guidelines. Sample standards are sprayed with an ASME dual regulated pressure pot with an HVLP spray gun and a 2.0 mm fluid tip setup. Remove all filters and strainers from equipment. Maintain uniform distance of approximately 12” - 18” between the gun and surface. Adjust equipment and distance for best results. Aim spray gun directly at surface (spraying at an angle will distort pattern). Spray horizontal strokes, overlapping each previous stroke by 50%. Then cross hatch the same way with vertical strokes to eliminate any lap marks. Begin spray stroke before triggering and release trigger before stroke is completed.
Note: Application must be full coat coverage. If not properly applied the following will occur: uneven appearance,picture framing, lap marks, unsatisfactory touch up and diminished properties. Spray application has slightly different appearance (finer pattern and smoother finish) than roller application. Prepare a mock-up using specific paint and equipment for job in an inconspicuous area prior to proceeding.

repeated soiling. For floors, work surfaces and heavy duty applications use high-build, two component polyurethane or epoxy clear topcoat.
Touch up: For small touch up use large pore sponge to dab on multicolor. If necessary, roll over dabbed on area to level Multispec Stone Accents. For larger areas or spray applications, duplicate original application. Basecoat not normally needed when re-rolling over Multispec Stone Accents. For best result repaint from corner-to-corner.
Cleanup: Wash roller thoroughly with warm soapy water immediately after use. Flush spray equipment with water.
Precautions: DO NOT BREATHE SPRAY MIST. Wear an appropriate respirator (NIOSH/MSHA APPROVED), SAFETY GOGGLES AND GLOVES. Use adequate ventilation. Avoid breathing dust when sanding. Wear NIOSH approved respirator. DO NOT TAKE INTERNALLY. KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
HMIS Rating: Health 1; Flammability 0; Reactivity 0; Personal Protection I.

5. APPLICATION
Handling/Storage/Shipping: Care must be exercised in handling. Multicolor paint is fragile. To mix thoroughly stir gently with paddle. Do not mix mechanically. Vigorous agitation may break down color flecks and change color. Do not freeze or store over 100° F. Close container tightly after each use. Do not store in unlined metal containers.
Surface Preparation and Priming: Surface must be in good condition and free of efflorescence and contaminants. Surface should be clean and dry. Multicolor can be rolled or sprayed directly on certain textured or porous surfaces such as concrete block. Highly porous substrates will decrease spread rate. Prime with appropriate primer/sealer/stain killer required for surface.
• First use corner roller for corners and difficult to roll areas, then roll over these areas using 9” foam roller.
• Dry Time: To touch 2-3 hours at 70° F. and 50% humidity; to use, overnight; full dry, several days. Drying time will vary according to temperature, humidity and film thickness.
