APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS FOLLOW THESE SIMPLE APPLICATION STEPS

Surface Preparation:

LIMITATIONS

• Do not install any product if the temperature is below 55°F.
• Rain may damage uncured products. If inclement weather threatens, cover deck to protect new application.
• Do not allow any non-applied product to FREEZE.
• DO NOT PAINT OVER MILDEW. Mildew is a fungus, brown, black, grey or even white in color, and will rapidly grow through any
  coating applied over it. A solution of 50% household bleach and 50% water will kill the mildew. Rinse thoroughly. See precautions
  on bleach label for handling before using.

Concrete, concrete decks, floors and walk ways New concrete must age for a minimum of 30 days. Cool temperatures and high humidity may require a longer cure time.

Remove all grease, oil and wax with T. S. P. Solution. (One pound of T. S. P. to 1 gallon of water.) Scrub with stiff broom until surface is thoroughly clean. Rinse thoroughly with clear water. Power wash all concrete with 3000 lb. pressure washer, spray tip should be no further than 6” from concrete surface. A properly etched concrete surface should resemble the texture of fine or medium sandpaper.Prepare surface to achieve a CSP of 2 to 4 as per ICRI Guideline 310.2 R-2013 Let dry thoroughly before applying coating.

For Interior and/or Hard Troweled Cement:

Need to rough up smooth concrete surfaces using one of two methods below.

CHEMICAL ETCHING METHOD:  For an acid etch preparation we suggest our E760CE Muriatic Replacement as a safer alternative.  Power wash surface after minimum 10 minutes or more but before dry to neutralize the E760CE,  then let water thoroughly dry and apply coating.  If no power wash available, can wet mop or hose off but will need to run a stiff broom over surface while wet with E760CE to agitate before neutralizing.

MECHANICAL ETCHING METHOD: Use a grinder or bead blaster with a dust filter, or vacuum attachment, evenly over the surface. A small hand grinder may need to be used where horizontal meets vertical substrates. Rinse thoroughly using a pressure washer to remove all remaining dust and residue. A properly etched concrete surface should resemble the texture of fine or medium sandpaper. Let dry thoroughly before applying coating.

Mildew: DO NOT PAINT OVER MILDEW. Mildew is a fungus, brown, black, grey or even white in color, and will rapidly grow through any coating applied over it. A solution of 50% household bleach and 50% water will kill the mildew. Rinse thoroughly. See precautions on bleach label for handling before using.

Glossy Surfaces: Roughen gloss by sanding; then wash with a T.S.P. solution and rinse thoroughly with water.

Previously Painted Surfaces: Clean all surfaces and roughen all glossy surfaces by sanding. Clean all surfaces thoroughly with a T.S.P solution and then rinse thoroughly with water. Do not paint over loose or peeling paint.

Unpainted Surfaces: For maximum durability, prime all surfaces to be coated. Caulk all cracks and nail holes.

Wood: Clean and primer all new wood with E1575 Primer. Coat with 1-2 thin coats of E28 Series.
Metal: Clean and etch all new metal. Prime all bare metal with E1575 or E7075 primer.

Weather: Do not install any product if the temperature is below 55. Rain may damage uncured products. If inclement weather threatens, cover deck to protect new application. Do not allow any non-applied product to FREEZE.

Priming: For best results and when necessary as specified, prime surfaces with this product (25 Series) thinned with one quart of water before applying the top coat.

Application:

Box and mix all containers to insure consistent color. Neatly cut-in all edges with a brush and roll the main area using a 1/2” to 3/4” nap, good quality roller cover. Be sure to spread evenly in a “V” pattern, rolling in both directions. It is best not to apply this product in the direct sun at temperatures above 80°F. Thinning slightly with water and applying thin coats will help avoid streaks when working in direct sun. (See specifications for more application details).

Application can be done with brush, roller or sprayer.  For roller application suggest 1/2″ nap roller cover on smooth surfaces and a heavy duty 3/4″ nap on rough surfaces.  When applying with an airless sprayer suggest a .017 orifice spray tip in a 5-17 configuration.

Dry Time: Allow six (6) hours between coats and light foot traffic. Normal foot traffic after 24 hours. Allow 48 hours before placing heavy objects on the surface. Cool temperatures and high humidity may require a longer cure time.

Maintenance:  See the E10 Maintenance Sheet in the Document Library

MAINTENANCE:

• Clean up spilled and undried product immediately with water.
• Clean hands and skin with warm water and soap.
• Most Stains will clean-up with TSP, a brush, and water. We recommend a re-coat every 2-5 years, depending on traffic and exposure
  to the sun.
