Extended Information

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

1-800-424-LEAD or log on to www.epa.gov/lead.

MIXING

Mix thoroughly to re-disperse to ensure any settled pigment is

re-dispersed. Do not mix the color chips in with the coating.

APPLICATION

Apply only when air, material, and surface temperatures are

between 60-85°F (15-29°C) and the surface temperature is

at least 5°F (3°C) above the dew point. The relative humidity

should not be greater than 85%. Stir thoroughly. Cut in the

perimeter of the floor along the wall, or other areas where a

roller cannot reach, using a brush or edger before beginning

roller application. Use a synthetic ½" nap roller cover on a 9"

roller frame to apply an even coat of EPOXYShield

Concrete.

Paint onto the surface. Limit the application to 4x4 foot

(1.2x1.2m) sections at a time. If decorative chips are used,

scatter the chips up and away from you so they land flat on

the wet paint, then continue on to the next section. Note: Fresh

paint can be applied over the loose chips lying outside the

previously painted area. Maintain a wet edge to prevent lap

marks and gloss differences. Make all final passes in the same

direction to help ensure uniform appearance. Only one coat

is necessary under most circumstances. Occasional touch-up

may be required in areas subject to heavy traffic.

CLEAN-UP

Wash tools and equipment with warm water and a mild

detergent immediately after use. Properly dispose of all roller

covers and soiled rags
