Page 3 of 5
Step 4 – Light Repairs:
Raised nail heads and/or screws should be secured using a hammer or a screwdriver. Remove loose splinters and
replace severely damaged or rotting boards. Fill larger cracks using RESTORE CRACK FILLER or a similar acrylic,
non-silicone filler. Allow to dry.
6. WEATHER
Monitor the weather to see not only what the weather will be like for the day you plan on applying Restore 10X
Advanced Resurfacer, but also for 48 hours after application is complete. ONLY APPLY RESTORE 10X ADVANCED
RESURFACER WHEN THE AMBIENT TEMPERATURE WILL BE BETWEEN 50-90 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT DURING
APPLICATION AND FOR A FULL 48 HOURS (DAY AND NIGHT) AFTER APPLICATION. DO NOT APPLY IF RAIN IS
EXPECTED THE DAY OF APPLICATION OR WITHIN 48 HOURS OF COMPLETING THE APPLICATION.
7. APPLICATION FOR WOOD
TWO COATS OF RESTORE 10X ADVANCED RESURFACER ARE REQUIRED
TRIM AND VERTICAL SURFACES
Before applying Restore 10X Advanced Resurfacer to the horizontal portions of the deck, first coat vertical surfaces
such as deck posts, railings, or balusters using Restore 2X One Coat Solid Stain, Restore 4X Deck Coat, or Restore
Solid Acrylic Stain. Next cut in around edges with a brush and coat visible areas between deck boards.
STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS FOR APPLICATION
STEP 1:
Before using Restore 10X Advanced Resurfacer, mix material thoroughly and repeat mixing occasionally during
application. Restore 10X Advanced Resurfacer is a very thick coating that may be difficult to mix fully with just a
stir stick. We recommend that you use a power drill with a mixing paddle. When using more than one container,
combine all containers to ensure color consistency.
STEP 2:
Using either a 4” or 9” Restore Honeycomb Roller saturate the roller cover and roll in one direction, with a slight
downward pressure to maintain texture and to push material into cracks and voids. Work to a wet edge at all
times. Avoid rolling back into coated areas when drying has begun. We recommend that you coat 1-2 boards at a
time.
STEP 3:
After coating 1-2 boards, use a putty knife or other straight edge to remove any excess coating between deck
boards. Difficult areas such as warped or cupped deck boards will require rolling across the narrow width of deck
board as well as the length to ensure complete coverage.
STEP 4:
Allow first coat to dry 4-6 hours. Extend the drying time if the surface is tacky or soft. Drying times may vary
depending on temperature and humidity.
STEP 5:
Apply second coat using the same method as in STEP 2 and STEP 3.
STEP 6:
Allow second coat 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.
