Application Instructions

Before using, the user must determine the suitability of this product for its intended use.

  • Prepare substrate by sanding and removing any dirt, silicone, oil or other coatings. Apply FR-10 to raw wood. FR-10 will not adhere to a surface that has not been properly prepared. If other coatings are used with FR-10, they should be tested in a lab as a system to determine the flame-spread rating. Certain stains may need several weeks to dry/cure completely before the application of FR-10.
  • OSHA recommends Applicator must wear paint goggles, masks, and gloves suitable for latex coatings.
  • FR-10 must be mixed well (do not dilute or cut with water, the product is ready to use).
  • FR-10 may be applied by brush, roller, or an airless sprayer using a 15 spray tip (do not use a cup gun or air sprayer).
  • Coverage is 1 gallon per 200 square feet.
  • Cover the entire exposed area.
  • Application in cold weather will extend dry time.

Certification for the State of California requires application by a California State Certified Applicator to comply with requirements of the California State Fire Marshal.
