Longer dry time may be required in cooler temperatures and

SURFACE PREPARATION:
All surfaces must be clean, free of dust, chalk, oil, grease,
wax, polish, mold and mildew stains, loose and peeling
paint, rust and all other foreign substances.
New and Uncoated Concrete & Masonry: Allow new
surfaces to cure 30 days. Clean and etch surface using a
product such as a muriatic acid etcher (read and follow all
manufacturer’s label directions) to achieve a textured prole
similar to 150-grit sandpaper. Wipe your ngers over the
clean, dry surface to check for dust or powder. Ensure there
is no residue on your ngers that may have been left from
the etcher. If residue is found, rinse the surface to remove
residue. Allow the surface to dry completely. Sprinkle a few
drops of water onto the surface. If water is quickly absorbed
and the surface feels like 150-grit sandpaper, the surface is
ready. If not, re-etch.
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. Clean up carefully with a HEPA
vacuum and a wet mop. Before you start, nd out how to
protect yourself and your family by contacting the National
Lead Information Center at 1-800-424-LEAD or log on to
www.epa.gov/lead.
CLEAN-UP/DISPOSAL:
Clean all tools and equipment with warm, soapy water.
Do not dispose of this product down a drain. If spilled,
contain material and remove with an inert absorbent.
Dispose of contaminated absorbent, container and unused
product in accordance with all current federal, state
and local regulations. For recycling or disposal of empty

CAUTIONS/LIMITATIONS:
• Protect from freezing.
• Not recommended for use on Wood, Metal, Granite,
Marble, Terrazzo and areas immediately adjacent to pools.
• Not recommended for use on below-grade surfaces or
areas subject to hydrostatic pressure. Do not use over
oil-based products.
• Sealed surfaces may become slippery when wet. Use
caution when walking on surface when moisture is
present. Apply in sections so wet material does not have to
be walked on during application.
• For best results, apply when air, material and surface
temperatures are between 50°F and 80°F. Temperatures
above 80°F can cause the coating to dry too fast. Avoid
applying in direct sun. NOTE: If the surface is hot to the
touch it should be considered too hot to apply this coating.
• Do not apply on wet surfaces or if rain/dew is expected
within 24 hours.
• Horizontal surfaces may be subject to excessive wear and
periodic touch-ups may be necessary
• Avoid heavy trac for 24 – 48 hours.
• Allow 72 hours before subjecting surface to automotive
tires, repositioning planters or furniture. Park tires on
corrugated cardboard for 14 days after application. After
30 days, surface may be cleaned with a mild, non-abrasive
liquid detergent.
