Preparation

• New concrete must cure for a minimum of 30 days.
• For new or smooth concrete, use a concrete & masonry cleaner & etcher product.
• Clean previously created surfaces in sound condition with a concrete & masonry degreaser & cleaner product.
• Stamped concrete requires the use of a cleaner to remove release agent prior to sealing.
• Scrape and remove loose and peeling coating. To strip the surface, use a concrete & masonry paint stripper product.

Application

• DO NOT THIN. Stir or shake before applying.
• Use product when temperature is between 50-80°F (10-27°C). Do not apply in direct sunlight. Do not apply to wet surfaces or if rain or heavy dew is expected within 24 hours.
