100% acrylic latex interior paint intended to be used as a base coat
under deep colors that specify Aura Color Foundation in order to achieve
maximum hide and the desired finish coat color. It has been formulated
using the same advanced technology as Benjamin Moore Aura Paint. The use of Benjamin Moore Aura Interior Exterior
Color Foundation will depend
on the finish coat color and must be tinted appropriately.

painted wood, fiber cement board, hardboard siding, aluminum, galvanized metal, brick, cured masonry and previously coated ferrous metal surfaces. Ask your retailer about our special purpose primers for use over difficult substrates such as bleeding woods; or surfaces that are water stained, smoke damaged or very slick.
Surface Preparation
Surfaces to be painted must be clean, dry, and free of dirt, dust, grease, oil, soap, wax, scaling paint, water soluble materials, and mildew. Dull glossy surfaces. Apply Aura Interior Exterior Color Foundation after filling nailholes, cracks, and other surface imperfections.
Unpainted Surfaces & Masonry: New Plaster or masonry surfaces must be allowed to cure (30 – 60 days) before applying base coat. All surfaces must be thoroughly brushed with stiff fiber bristles to remove loose particles.
Repainted Surfaces: Remove any peeling or scaling paint, and sand areas to feather edges smooth with adjacent surfaces.
Difficult Substrates: Benjamin Moore offers a number of specialty primers for use over difficult substrates such as bleeding woods, grease stains, crayon markings, hard glossy surfaces, or other substrates where paint adhesion or stain suppression is a particular problem. Destination Paint can recommend the right problem-solving primer for your special needs prior to applying Aura Interior Exterior Color Foundation.
WARNING! If you scrape, sand or remove old paint, you may release lead dust. LEAD IS TOXIC. EXPOSURE TO LEAD DUST CAN CAUSE SERIOUS ILLNESS, SUCH AS BRAIN DAMAGE, ESPECIALLY IN CHILDREN. PREGNANT WOMEN SHOULD ALSO AVOID EXPOSURE. Wear a NIOSH-approved respirator to control lead exposure. Carefully clean up with a HEPA vacuum and a wet mop. Before you start, find out how to protect yourself and your family by contacting the National Lead Information Hotline at 1-800-424-LEAD or log on to www.epa.gov/lead.
