Application
For New Concrete:
- Apply as soon as surface water has evaporated and without marring the concrete. Apply evenly in a uniform coat. For superior finish and added protection, a second coat can be applied at 400 sq ft/gal after the first coat has thoroughly dried.
For Existing Concrete:
- Ensure the concrete surface is clean, dry, or damp and free from all stains, oil, grease, dirt, and incompatible coatings. Surface Shine Brown EX can renovate existing concrete, brick, or terrazzo floors, making them brighter and easier to maintain.
Application Tips:
- Do not apply on hot surfaces or in direct sunlight to avoid rapid evaporation which may prevent proper film formation and could lead to bubbling, peeling, or blushing. Maintain high pressure in sprayers and keep the sprayer tip within 12 inches of the surface.
- Agitate well before every use and apply in uniform thin films for best results. Two thin coats are recommended, never a single heavy coat. Avoid puddles and apply in accordance with recommended coverage rates.
