Warning!
Removing existing paint from surfaces by means of sanding, scraping, or other mechanical means may create dust or particles containing lead. Avoid creating dust or other debris. BREATHING OR EATING LEAD-CONTAINING DUST OR DEBRIS CAN CAUSE HEALTH PROBLEMS, ESPECIALLY FOR CHILDREN AND PREGNANT WOMEN.

Special properties
Floorguard is the ideal gloss finish for all interior and exterior floor areas. It is made with highest quality alkyd-phenolic resins to give extra wear and weather resistance.

Where to use
Floorguard is equally adaptable in homes and in factory buildings. Its weather and wear resistance makes it ideal for walls, lockers, benches, wood trim and structural steel as well as floors. Exterior structural steel and tanks receive excellent protection when painted with Floorguard. Prime bare steel with No. 1002 Gray Metalguard Primer first.

Surface preparation
Surfaces to be painted must be clean, smooth and free of dirt, dust, mildew, grease, flaking and chipping paint, and other surface contamination. Cracks, seams, holes and nail holes should be filled with putty or caulking compound and allowed to dry. Slick or glossy surfaces should be dulled by sanding. All bare wood, metal and other surfaces should be coated with an appropriate primer before applying Floorguard.

Application
Apply only when the air temperature and that of the surface to be painted are above 45 degrees F. For best results, do not apply in direct sunlight. Avoid painting late in the day when dew or condensation are likely to form or when rain is threatening. Stir thoroughly before using.
