PRODUCT APPLICATION
SURFACE PREPARATION
Allow new concrete to cure for a minimum of 28 days. Sweep
away all loose dirt and debris. Remove any oil spots, grease or
spills and wash the floor with a suitable detergent or degreasing
solution and rinse. Then etch the floor using the Rust-Oleum
®
Concrete Etch.
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 grinding
or shot blasting. 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
