STEP 2:
Using either a short nap stain pad or a synthetic paint brush saturate and apply generously in a consistent pattern.
Work to a wet edge at all times. Avoid rolling back into coated areas where drying has begun.
STEP 3:
Allow to dry 24 hours before light foot traffic and 48 hours before replacing furniture. If surface is tacky or soft,
allow extended drying time before putting furniture or other heavy objects back in place. Full cure to a hard finish
will take approximately 7 days.
8. DRYING TIMES
Dry times may vary due to weather conditions such as humidity, rain, high/low temperatures and seasonal
changes. Apply Restore Metallic Semi-Transparent Stain when no rain is expected for a minimum of 24 hours after
application. Allow the area to dry for a minimum 24 hours before light foot traffic on the surface and 48 hours
before placing furniture on the area.
Dry times are based off the optimal application temperature of 70 degrees. Allow more time to dry at lower
temperatures. Restore Metallic Semi-Transparent Stain should not be applied if temperatures are below 50
degrees and above 90 degrees during application and for at least 2 hours after application.
9. CLEAN UP
Restore Metallic Semi-Transparent Stain is a water based product that will clean up with soap and water. For best
results clean up should be done before the product dries. Cover the areas around spindles and walls to avoid
splattering during the application process.
10. COATING MAINTENANCE
Basic maintenance consists of sweeping or blowing clean the surface from dirt, leaves, and other debris. Clean the
surface seasonally and when necessary with Restore Deck & Concrete Cleaner, a brush and a water hose. DO NOT
