Fresh Concrete

Apply at 250–350 sq. ft./gal with a sprayer (pump-up or airless industrial recommended)
Roller application possible with a short-napped, solvent-resistant sleeve (avoid bubbles)
For extra high-gloss or porous surfaces, apply an additional coat at 400 sq. ft./gal
Allow 1–3 hours or until dry-to-touch before applying a second coat

Existing Concrete

Thoroughly clean and dry the surface
Pressure wash with a strong alkaline detergent (do not use acids)
