.PRODUCT APPLICATION .
SURFACE PREPARATION
Allow new concrete to cure for a minimum of 28 days.
Remove any oil spots, grease or spills and wash the floor
with a suitable detergent or degreasing solution and rinse.
The concrete must be free of curing agents or sealers.
Etch the floor with Concrete Etch. Test for a sealer by
lightly sprinkling water on the surface of the concrete. If
the water droplets bead up rather than soak into the
concrete, then there is some type of sealer present. The
sealer will have to be removed by alternate method of
surface preparation, such as sanding or grinding.
PREVIOUSLY COATED FLOORS: Make sure the floor is
clean and dry. Use a wire brush to remove any loose or
peeling paint or stain. If floor is sealed, the sealer will have
to be removed by sanding or grinding. To ensure proper
adhesion, scuff sand the entire surface.
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, 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
