Using Instruction

• Step 1: Mixing Instructions

  • Optional: Vertical surfaces may need two coats with two broadcasts for proper coverage so if you choose to coat vertical surfaces the first coat should be performed before coating the flat deck surfaces. Thesecond coat on the vertical surfaces can be performed when coating the flat surfaces.

• Note (It is not necessary to broadcast vertical surfaces it is for appearance only).

  • 2 coats of vertical surfaces ¼ mixed gallon
  • 9 ounces of Part “B” Activator/Hardener (1 part by volume) 22 ounces of Part “A” Resin (2.3 parts by volume) Follow Steps 2-9 using recommended ratios for vertical surfaces above. Again, this will do for the firstcoat, 2nd coat will be performed when coating the remainder of the deck following steps 2-9 below.
    Note: If you apply coatings and flake within 15 minutes (to rejection coverage) may be acceptable with one application

• Step 2:

  • Rinse and dry the large mixing bucket (which held all kit contents) with a clean rag prior to mixing. Install the supplied mixing tool into a high-speed drill. Apply protective plastic onto a 10′ X 10′ area where mixing is to be performed (not on the deck coating surface).

• Step 3:

  • Install spike shoes. Mix Part “A” of PerformanceDIY.com Deck Coat in its original bucket for 2 minutes

• Step 4:

  • Into the large, clean mixing bucket, pour 1/2-gallon Part “B” ACTIVATOR/ HARDENER by volume.

• Step 5:

  • INTO THE SAME OUTER MIXING BUCKET, pour 1-gallon pre-mixed contents of PerformanceDIY.com deck coat Part “A” RESIN by volume.
    Note: Mixing 1 gallon of Part A and ½ gallon of Part B equals mixed 1.5 gallons. For smaller mixes, the actual mixing ratio is 1 part by volume of Part B Activator/Hardener to 2.3 parts of Part A Resin.

  • Example for smaller batches:
    If mixing in smaller batches using a measuring cup/bucket, please refer to these guidelines: 19 ounces of Part “B” Activator/Hardener (1 part by volume) and 44 ounces of Part “A” Resin (2.3 parts by volume)

• Step 6:

  • Mix thoroughly with the mixing tool for 2 minutes paying close attention to mixing all around the bucket’s sides and raising and lowering with the mixing tool.
    Note: Mixing must be very thorough (2 minutes), or the coating will not cure and clean up, and removal of the uncured epoxy will be costly and very time- consuming. Do not wipe the sides of the mixing bucket between mixes or after the final mix as there may be residual unmixed epoxy. The residual epoxy in the mixing bucket will not adversely affect the future epoxy mixes

• Application Instructions
  Minimum Coating thickness:
  1.5-gallon half batch- 12.5’x10′ section. (3/4-gallon batch-6.25’x10′ per mix) Back roll in the opposite direction a second time 10 minutes after first rolled application and prior to step 8.

• Step 7:

  • Dip into the bucket directly using the supplied Roller Bucket Screen. Starting in the farthest corner using the supplied kit brush cut in where necessary and in an even coat to the coverage detailed below.
    Note: With the mixed coating you have 20-25 minutes working time at 70 °F (lower at higher temps). Repeat steps 4-7 for the second mix. Performance Flake Broadcast instructions

• Step 8:

  • Apply PerformanceDlY.com Flake/Chips by throwing the flakes into the wet coating, only flake a section after the deck area looks satisfactory as once you flake the deck you will not be able to re-back roll again. The flake chips should be broadcasted until there are little or no wet spots (rejection). It is important that you take your time to broadcast, do not use too many flakes in certain areas, the goal is to walk with spike shoes around and apply all the supplied flakes to the wet epoxy completely having enough flakes to cover the whole area.
    Note: If multiple special-order solid colour flake chips are not premixed together, do so before flaking the floor. Vertical surfaces may take two applications for proper coverage.

• Step 9:

  • After 8-12 hours remove flakes from the floor by sweeping and vacuuming all remaining flake chips. A power blower should be used as the last step.

  • WARNING: Wear protective gloves, clothing, eyes, and protection when using this product. Proper ventilation is required for use. See the SDS sheet for more information, available at www.PerformanceDlY.com. Install spike shoes.

  • Note: Mix ratio is 1 to 1 by volume

• Step 10:

  • Pour 1/2-gallon (half of Part “A”) contents of Part “A” Poly 300 into the large clean black container. Pour tie alin (hal of Part B) contents of Part “B* Poly 300 into the large clean black container.

• Step 12:

  • Mix thoroughly for 2 minutes

• Step 13:

  • Dip into the black 3-gallon bucket directly using the supplied Roller Bucket Screen. Starting in the farthest corner using the supplied kit brush cut in where necessary.

• Minimum Coating thickness:

  • Dip the roller cover into the roller pan or bucket screen and roll out an approximate four’ x 4′ area. Roll back and forth until completely even throughout that area before moving on to the next area. THE MORE YOU BACK ROLL THE MORE EVEN THE CLEAR COAT WILL BE. Repeat steps 10-13 for the second half until complete.

• Step 14:

  • After the second section is rolled, go back and re-back roll entire deck completely in opposite direction. If you desire to have aluminum oxide nonskid added to the deck broadcast aluminum oxide non-skid over the deck in lesser amounts (only in the previous section which have been back rolled a 2nd time). Taking a pinch amount apply by throwing the non-skid into the air a minimum of 5′ or higher.
    Note: Aluminum oxide will make the deck more slip-resistant but will make it harder to clean; it should be used according to your desired needs. PerformanceDIY.com non-skid additive is industry standard and accepted means for creating a proper recommended OSHA 0.5 COEFFICIENT FRICTION slip-resistant non-skid surface.
