It is the responsibility of the installer to review and follow all product specifications prior to beginning work.
1. Surface Preparation
- Prepare the substrate to ICRI CSP 3 profile.
- Remove grease, oil, coatings, laitance, and any surface contamination.
- Confirm substrate strength (minimum 2,500 PSI) and cured (28 days minimum).
- Perform moisture testing and address any elevated levels prior to application.
2. Crack and Surface Repair
- Route cracks larger than 1/32” to ¼” x ¼”.
- Fill with EC-72 Epoxy Patch Gel and allow proper curing time before priming.
3. Primer Application — EC-11 Water-Based Epoxy
- Mix two parts A with one part B by volume.
- Thin with water if needed for better concrete penetration.
- Apply at 500–800 ft² per gallon using a ¼” nap roller, avoiding puddling.
- Proceed to SC-10 application within 1–6 hours of primer drying.
4. Base Color Application — SC-10 Acrylic Topcoat
- Thoroughly mix; thin the first coat only if necessary to improve flow.
- Apply one to two thin coats at 200–400 ft² per gallon.
- Cross-roll to achieve a uniform and consistent appearance.
5. Decorative Staining — SC-35 Water-Based Stain
- Apply using a sprayer, broom, or brush.
- For mottled effects, pre-dampen the surface or blend colors during application.
- Coverage rates vary from 400–600 ft² per gallon.
6. Sealer Application — SC-65SG Semi-Gloss Polyurethane Sealer
- Mix three parts A with one part B by volume.
- Apply at 400–650 ft² per gallon via sprayer, roller, or broom.
- Allow minimum cure times of 12 hours for light traffic, 24 hours for standard use, and 72 hours for vehicular or water exposure.
Best Practices for Successful Installations
- Monitor weather conditions. Avoid application before rain (48 hours) or heavy dew (24 hours).
- Control surface moisture. Always confirm slab conditions before coating.
- Maintain a wet edge. Especially critical when applying SC-65SG to avoid visible lap lines.
- Incorporate slip resistance. Add Safe Grip aggregates (CA-29, CA-30, or CA-31) where needed.
- Box batches for consistency. Mix multiple batches of SC-10 or SC-35 together to ensure uniform color throughout the project.
