STEP 1
Mixing COOLIT drymix with warm water
1. To prepare COOLIT drymix for painting, stir the dry mix into hot water and then store in a ventilated or outdoor area.
2. Using a 5-gallon bucket, combine a 1-gallon drymix kit with 1-gallon of hot water.
3. Stir the mixture using an electric drill with a paddle attachment.
STEP 2
Allow to effervesce
1. When the water and the drymix come into contact, there is a period where harmless effervescent gases are released. During this time, we suggest storing the mixture in open 5-gallon buckets (overnight), allowing the gases to fully dissipate. Then, in the morning, the mixture is ready to add directly into any standard latex paint.
2. If you do not have access to hot water, allow 12 hours (instead of 8) for the gases to effervesce.
3. This product shouldn’t be used and containers should not be sealed until this natural effervescence process runs its course.
4. Once the effervescence is complete, the liquefied COOLIT can then be re-stirred and mixed/shaken directly into any standard acrylic latex paint.
STEP 3
Mixing liquid COOLIT with paint
1. Using a 5-gallon bucket, combine a 1/3-gallon of liquid COOLIT with every 1-gallon of paint.
2. Stir the mixture using an electric drill with a paddle attachment.
3. Alternatively, you can seal the container and shake the paint on high for 3 minutes.
4. If you are using spraying be sure to use a 19 or a 21 tip.
5. Clean all spraying equipment normally after each use.
