Product Usage Instructions

Mixing
Before use, it is important to mix the paint thoroughly. If the paint has been sitting for a while, there may be separation, so be sure to stir it well until it is smooth and consistent.

Note: Fresh paint can be applied over loose chips outside the previously painted area. Maintain a wet edge to prevent lap marks and gloss differences. Only one coat is necessary under most circumstances. EpoxyShield must be used within 1 hour of initial mixing.

Clean-up
Wash tools and equipment with warm water and a mild detergent immediately after use. To remove dried product, use lacquer thinner. Clean up drips or spatters IMMEDIATELY with water, as dried paint is very difficult to remove. Properly dispose of all soiled rags.

How to Clean and Maintain

1. Cleaning Brushes, Rollers, or Spray Guns
   Clean your brushes, rollers, or spray guns thoroughly with water or the recommended solvent immediately after use. Do not let the paint dry on the brush or roller, as this will make it difficult to clean.

2. Disposing of Unused Paint
   Dispose of any unused paint and empty cans according to local regulations. Do not pour paint down the drain or dispose of it in the trash, as this can be harmful to the environment.

3. Storing Paint
   Store any leftover paint in a cool, dry place. Make sure the lid is tightly sealed to prevent air from entering the can, which can cause the paint to dry out. Always keep paint out of reach of children and pets.

Maintenance

1. Cleaning
   To keep your appliance looking its best, clean it regularly with a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scrubbers, as these can damage the paint. Rinse the surface with clean water and dry it with a soft cloth.

2. Avoid Heat
   To prevent damage to the paint, avoid placing hot items on the surface of the appliance. Use trivets or hot pads to protect the surface from heat.

3. Avoid Harsh Chemicals
   To prevent damage to the paint, avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners on the surface of the appliance. If you need to use a cleaner, choose a mild, non-abrasive cleaner and test it on a small, inconspicuous area first.

• Brush
  Brushes are ideal for smaller areas and spots. Use them along corners, edges, and in hard-to-reach spots. Allow the primer to dry before proceeding.

• Gloves
  Remember to wear gloves to keep your hands clean during the process.

• Trowel
  The trowel is a crucial tool for applying the epoxy coating. It spreads and levels the epoxy, ensuring a smooth, even surface. The trowel also helps fill voids and cracks in the substrate, promoting adhesion and minimizing imperfections.

PAINTING CONDITIONS

IMPORTANT: Read the printed kit instructions completely before starting your project.
Pre-Painting Checkpoints : DO NOT PAINT IF THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS.

1. Paint Adhesion: Prioritize proper adhesion. Remove loose paint by scraping and sanding. Test adhesion by making an X-cut through the coating to the concrete, then taping and pulling off duct tape. If over 25% of paint peels, remove old paint before painting.
2. Caution – Lead Risk: When removing old paint, be aware of potential lead content. Lead dust is hazardous, especially for children and pregnant women. Use a NIOSH-approved respirator, a HEPA vacuum, and follow safety measures. For guidance, contact the National Lead Information Hotline at 1-800-424-LEAD or visit www.epa.gov/lead.
3. Moisture in the Concrete: Prioritize proper adhesion. Remove loose paint by scraping and sanding. Test adhesion by making an X-cut through the coating to the concrete, then taping and pulling off duct tape. If over 25% of paint peels, remove old paint before painting.

Loose/Damaged Concrete : If the concrete is loose, chipping (spalled), the coating will not perform properly. Repair damaged areas before applying paint.

PREPARATION AND APPLICATION

PREPARATION

1. P RIOR TO PAINTING
   Allow newly poured concrete to cure for a minimum of 28 days prior to coating. Remove oil spots with a scrub brush and Heavy Duty Degreaser or Cleaner & Degreaser. Scrub thoroughly, then rinse. Repeat as necessary to completely clean.

2. PREVIOUSLY COATED FLOORS
   Make sure the floor is clean and dry. Use a wire brush to remove any loose or peeling paint or stain. If floor is sealed, the sealer will have to be removed. To ensure proper adhesion, scuff sand the entire surface.

3. PRE-WET THE FLOOR USING A HOSE
   Remove pooled water with a squeegee or broom to avoid leaving puddles. Floor should be damp but not wet. Spread the etch mixture over a 10′ x 10′ section of the floor. Scrub vigorously with a stiff bristle brush to loosen dust and dirt. While working, keep the entire section wet until the entire section has been etched and rinsed. Rinse each section thoroughly before starting the next section. For best results, use a foam squeegee to remove the rinse water from the surface and to move dirt and contaminants out of the garage. Repeat twice before continuing to the next section.

4. AFTER THE PREPARATION
   Once all sections are completed, rinse and squeegee the entire garage floor to remove any etch that has been tracked on previously etched areas. A wet/dry vacuum can also be used to eliminate excess water, dirt and contaminants. Do not leave pooled water on the floor. The etch will not discolor driveways or harm grass or plants if rinsed thoroughly. Wipe your fingers over the clean, dry floor. If you see any dust or powder on your fingers, repeat the rinsing & scrubbing until the floor is clean. If your fingers remain clean, continue to the next step. Allow the floor to dry completely.

Note: If the floor is not thoroughly cleaned and rinsed, the coating may not adhere properly.

APPLICATION

1. MIXING
   It is important to mix the paint thoroughly before use. If it has been sitting for a while, there may be separation, so be sure to stir it well until it is smooth and consistent.

2. APPLICATION
   Apply only when air, material, and surface temperatures are between 60-85°F (15-29°C) and the surface temperature is at least 5°F (3°C) above the dew point. The relative humidity should not be greater than 85%. Once the material is thoroughly mixed, Pour the mixed material into a container. Cut in the perimeter of the floor along the wall, or other areas where a trowel cannot reach, using a brush or edger before beginning trowel application. Use a trowel to apply an even coat of paint onto the surface, then continue on to the next section.
   Note : Fresh paint can be applied over the loose chips lying outside the previously painted area. Maintain a wet edge to prevent lap marks and gloss differences. Only one coat is necessary under most circumstances. EpoxyShield must be used within 1 hours of initial mixing.

3. DRY TIME
   Dry time is based on 70ºF and 50% relative humidity. Allow more time at cooler temperatures. Allow 24-48 hours before placing heavy items and for normal foot traffic. Allow 7 days for full cure and vehicle traffic.

4. CLEAN-UP
   Wash tools and equipment with warm water and a mild detergent immediately after use. To remove dried product use lacquer thinner. Clean up drips or spatters IMMEDIATELY with water as dried paint is very difficult to remove. Properly dispose of all soiled rags.
