Rubbol XD Gloss is an exceptionally durable high build, high gloss, solvent-borne opaque coating for exterior and interior timber joinery and trim, suitably primed metals and hard plastics. Rubbol XD Gloss is not recommended for use indoors as its drying times may be extended
Conditions: Do not apply if there is a risk of rain, or when air/substrate temperatures are below 5ºC or above 30ºC during application or drying periods. Protect from frost and rain until dry.Failure to meet these requirements may adversely affect the drying, visual quality and durability of the finish.Initial procedure Ensure product is thoroughly stirred before and during application, otherwise sheen and colour variations may be experienced. We do not recommend thinning Rubbol XD Gloss. Excessive thinning will reduce opacity.
Applying the product : For best results use a good quality, long-haired, soft bristle brush.
Two coats of Rubbol XD Gloss should be applied, allowing a minimum of 24 hours drying time between coats. On new work,
where practical, the first coat should be applied all round prior to fixing. Pay special attention to any areas of exposed end
grain, tops and bottoms of doors, and undersides of cills. The second coat should be applied to all exposed surfaces, as
soon as possible after the first coat has dried, but no sooner than 24 hours and within 48 hours, in order to provide full
protection. In any event this period should not extend beyond three months, otherwise additional preparation and coating may be necessary. If applied to exterior wood and the contract is of long duration, it is suggested that a further coat be applied prior to hand over to make good any weathering during the construction period. If the second coat is not applied
within 48 hours, light sanding with a medium grade abrasive, to provide a surface “key” will be required. Ensure all dust is removed. The product should be applied in a full flowing coat, laying off in the direction of the grain, using the minimum number of brushstrokes necessary to produce an acceptable finish. Avoid overbrushing, as this will reduce the protection afforded. Apply to a wet film thickness of approximately 70 micrometres. The wet film thickness should be greater than 65 micrometres but not more than 75 micrometres.

    Cleaning After Final Use- Cleaning your brushes and rollers immediately after their final use ensures they can be reused for multiple projects, saving you money and reducing waste. ​ Cleaning-​ 1. Remove Excess Paint- Scrape off excess paint into container for future projects.​ 2. Use Paint Thinner- Use a paint thinner to clean brushes and rollers.​ 3. Reuse Paint Thinner- Allow the paint solids to settle and reuse the thinner by pouring the clear liquid into another container.​ Responsible Disposal- Dispose of the remaining solids and used thinner at a hazardous waste facility. Do not pour any solvent-based paint, paint thinner or wash water down the drain or onto the ground.​ Do not flush paint down the drain, including when cleaning painting tools
  • 2. Storing
    1. Reuse, Recycle, or Donate- Whenever possible reuse, recycle, or donate leftover paint. Find local services at mywaste.ie or consider advertising the paint locally. Many good causes often need paint, and a little can go a long way in brightening up community spaces!​ 2. Dispose Responsibly- Never pour paint or wastewater down drains or sinks. Dispose of them responsibly. Follow the instructions at my waste.ie to recycle empty packs ​ 3. Reuse Roller Cages- Roller cages can be reused. Simply remove the sleeve and store the cage in a dry, dust-free place.​ 4. Dispose of Unusable Brushes and Sleeves- If your brush or roller sleeve cannot be cleaned or reused, place it in your general waste bin. While recycling is important, bristles or roller sleeves with paint can cause issues at recycling facilities, so it's best to dispose of them correctly.​
