Application Guidelines
Step-by-Step Application
- Surface preparation: Ensure the wall is clean, dry, and free from loose dust, grease, and flaking paint. Sand the surface smooth and apply an interior wall primer and putty coat for best results - skip primer and putty only on very smooth, sound surfaces.
- First coat: Apply the thinned distemper evenly using a good quality brush or roller. Work in one direction for a uniform finish. Allow to dry for 3-4 hours before applying the second coat.
- Second coat: Apply the second coat after the recoating window has passed. Two coats are required to achieve the specified coverage and finish quality.
- Use thinned paint within 24 hours: Do not store thinned distemper - mix only the quantity needed for the day's work and discard any unused thinned material.

FAQs
1) What is the difference between Tractor Uno and ordinary distemper?
Ordinary distemper uses a chalk and adhesive binder that powders and washes off when wet - it cannot be wiped clean and does not last as long. Tractor Uno uses an acrylic polymer binder that gives a harder, more durable film with genuine washability - light stains and dust can be wiped with a damp cloth without damaging the surface. This makes Tractor Uno significantly more durable and practical for walls in regular use, while still being priced at a distemper level rather than a full emulsion paint level.
2) How much water do I add and why does the dilution ratio matter?
Add 600ml - 750ml of clean water per 1 kg of paste (60-75% by weight). Too little water makes the paint difficult to spread and can cause brush marks and uneven finish. Too much water weakens the acrylic binder, reduces film strength, and eliminates the washability advantage of the acrylic formulation - the dried film becomes closer to ordinary distemper in performance. Always measure the dilution rather than estimating, particularly for the first batch, to establish the correct consistency for your tools and surface.
3) Do I need primer and putty before applying Tractor Uno?
For best results - yes. An interior wall primer seals the surface, reduces porosity, and improves paint adhesion and coverage. Wall putty fills minor surface irregularities for a smoother finish. On very smooth, sound, previously painted surfaces in good condition, primer may not be strictly necessary - but on new plaster, rough masonry, or repaired surfaces, primer and putty will significantly improve the final appearance and coverage efficiency. Skipping surface preparation is the most common cause of poor finish quality and reduced coverage.
4) Can the thinned paint be stored and used the next day?
No - thinned Tractor Uno distemper must be used within 24 hours of mixing. Once water is added, the mixture begins to deteriorate and the performance of the film applied from old mixed paint will be reduced. Mix only the quantity you can use in one day's work. The unmixed paste in the sealed bucket has a normal shelf life - reseal the bucket tightly after each use to prevent skin formation on the surface.
5) Is this suitable for exterior walls?
No - Tractor Uno Acrylic Distemper is formulated for interior masonry walls and ceilings only. It is not weather-resistant and will deteriorate rapidly on exterior surfaces exposed to rain, direct sunlight, and temperature fluctuations. For exterior surfaces, use an exterior-grade emulsion or texture paint specifically formulated for outdoor exposure. Using interior distemper on exterior walls is one of the most common causes of early paint failure in construction projects.
