SURFACE PREPARATION: Uncoated Concrete – All cured and uncoated concrete must be at least 30 days old, clean, dry and free of oil, grease, dirt, laitance or other foreign matter that could interfere with penetration or adhesion. Grease, oil, release agents and dirt can be removed by scrubbing the surface with a heavy duty oil and grease emulsifier. Rinse well with clean water. Bare concrete must be porous. Most horizontal concrete requires acid etching with a concrete etching product. Follow all label instructions carefully. A properly etched surface should have a texture like medium/fine sandpaper.

NOTE: Extremely smooth or dense pre-cast panels should be aggregate blasted or acid etched prior to application of the stain in order to assure adequate penetration and adhesion.

Previously Coated Concrete – Remove all oil, grease, dirt, loose paint or other foreign matter. Scrub the surface with a heavy duty oil and grease emulsifier. Rinse well with clean water and allow it to dry thoroughly. Glossy surfaces must be sanded to remove all gloss. A test area to insure applicability is recommended. Acid etching of painted or sealed surfaces is neither required nor recommended.

Coating Preparation- Be sure coating is mixed thoroughly prior to application. If more than one batch number is being used, it is a good idea to intermix gallons in a larger container to assure color uniformity.

APPLICATION:  TuffCrete® 100% Acrylic WB Concrete Stain may be applied by nylon brush, short nap roller, airless, HVLP or conventional spray. Apply material in a uniform, even coat at up to 550 square feet per gallon. Actual spread rate is determined by surface texture and application technique. Always attempt to coat large surface areas by painting up to natural breaks or in defined sections in order to reduce the potential for lap marks. For horizontal applications, allow to dry a full minimum of 24 hours before light foot traffic and a minimum of 72 hours before heavier foot traffic. Periods of high humidity, low temperatures or applying a heavy coat will extend the dry time. Do not apply in direct sunlight. Do not apply if ambient or surface temperature is greater than 90 °F or less than 50 °F.
