- Install a minimum 4’ by 4’ test area site mock up for approval of acceptable color, texture, finish, adhesion, and any other critical requirement acceptable to the owner prior to proceeding with the installation.
- Protect materials from excessive heat and cold and regularly check wet film thickness with mil gage and monitor consumption to ensure correct application thicknesses and rate are obtained.
- Installation Steps
Apply in thin coats by brush, roller, or airless spray. It is usually applied in two coats and sometimes three coats. Always allow for losses due to application methods, surface porosity and texture. Dries to touch in approximately 20 minutes.
