SWAMP MUD™ APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS

Preparation:

Wipe the surface to remove dust and debris. For sticky or oily residue from old polish or spills, clean thoroughly with vinegar and hot water (50:50) and allow to dry.
High gloss surfaces may require light scuffing for best adhesion.1

Application Instructions:

Uncle Jeff’s ORIGINAL Swamp Mud™ is a thick textured base coat that is designed to create the “tooth” or “grooves” on a non-sandable, non-porous surfaces such as plastic laminate, glass, metal and marble. This “tooth” allows the paint to adhere to the those surfaces. Swamp Mud™ also minimizes the appearance of small imperfections. It can also be used to create a faux two color faded paint look.

Brush on a generous coat of Swamp Mud™ and allow to dry completely. It will lose its shine once it is dry.
Next apply two coats of your favorite Miss Lillian’s NO WAX Chock Paint and allow paint to completely dry between coats.
Apply one of our Antiquing or Metallic Glazes, if desired, and finish with one to two coats of one of our Luster Topcoats . Allow to cure for 24 hours before putting into gentle daily use.

Swamp Mud™ may also be diluted slightly to be used as a base primer to help cover dark surfaces.
