SURFACE PREP*:

Note:

The surface should be clean and dry. You may need

an oil stain remover such as SEAL-KRETE Oil Stain Remover to lift stubborn

oil stains. Pressure-washing is recommended.

Concrete must have cured for a minimum of 30 days.

Etch smooth-fi nished concrete (such as basement or garage fl oors) with a

concrete etching solution like SEAL-KRETE Clean-N-Etch.

If etchingwith muriatic acid the area must be neutralized before proceeding. For

more information visit www.seal-krete.com.

For use over one-part water-based coatings only;

not recommended over acid-based stains or oil-based coatings. Freshly

painted surfaces must have cured for a minimum of 72 hours. Paint must

be sound (not blistering or peeling). Existing painted surfaces should be

cleaned with a solution of Trisodium Phosphate (TSP) and water. Rinse

well and allow to dry.

Read �LIMITATIONS� section before use. This product is ready

to use; do not dilute. Stir gently; do not shake. Apply in light, even coats. One

coat is recommended; however, over porous surfaces (like saltillo tile) or

when a higher sheen is desired, apply a second coat.

Sealer goes on milky white but dries clear.

Dampen roller, remove excess water, then saturate roller with

product. Keep a wet edge while rolling. Do not allow to puddle, foam or

run. (Use a 1/4� nap for smooth surfaces, 3/8� nap for rough or porous

surfaces.)

Set at a fi ne spray and apply using a circular motion.

To eliminate puddling or to achieve a more uniform fi nish, backroll

immediately after spraying.
