Farrow & Ball- Special Repair & Covering Spray - Stirabout

1. Prepare the Surface

Clean the area thoroughly to remove any dirt, grease, wax or loose material. If required, lightly abrade the damaged area with fine abrasive paper and remove any dust before painting.

2. Shake Well

Shake the aerosol vigorously for at least 2 minutes before use. If you pause during application, shake the can again before continuing.

3. Test the Colour

Always test the paint on an inconspicuous area first. Allow the test area to dry completely before assessing the colour, as wet paint may appear different from the final cured finish.

4. Apply the Paint

Hold the can approximately 20–25 cm from the surface and apply several light, even coats using smooth, continuous passes. Start spraying just before the repair area and release the nozzle just after passing it to help achieve an even finish.

Allow 10–15 minutes between coats.
5. Allow to Dry

• Touch dry: 15–20 minutes
• Recoat: After 10–15 minutes
• Handle with care: 1–2 hours
• Fully cured: 24 hours

Helpful Tips

• Build the colour gradually using several light coats rather than one heavy coat.
• Avoid spraying too close to the surface, as this may cause runs or uneven coverage.
• Use in a dry, well-ventilated area between 5°C and 35°C.
• Cold, damp or humid conditions can increase drying times and affect the final finish.
