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.

Special properties
No. 170 is the best possible sealer for new drywall as it will not raise the fiber in the drywall and leaves a nice smooth paintable sanded surface. It may be top coated with latex, alkyd, or oil-based paints.

Where to use
No. 170 is a fast drying sealer for interior surfaces of plaster, cement, masonite, brick and wallboard, in addition to drywall. It has excellent alkali and moisture resistance and is an excellent sealer for porous surfaces.

Surface preparation
Surfaces to be painted must be clean, smooth and free from dirt, mildew, grease, flaking and chipping paint, wax, wallpaper paste, and sizing. Cracks, seams and holes should be filled with a quality patching or spackling compound, allowed to dry, sanded and spot primed. Slick or glossy surfaces should be dulled by sanding.

Application
Apply only when the air temperature and that of the surface to be painted are above 45 degrees F. Stir thoroughly before using.

Colors available
No. 170 is furnished only in white, but it may be tinted with machine colorants, universal colorants, or mixed with Vanyl-ite Latex paints to approximate the topcoat color.
