FAQs

What type of surfaces can this paint be used on?

This paint is suitable for concrete, cement screed, stone, and previously painted floors. It is ideal for garage floors, workshops, patios, basements, warehouses, and factories.

How should I prepare the surface before painting?

The surface must be clean, dry, and free from oil, grease, dust, and loose particles. For existing paint, lightly sand to create a key for adhesion. Repair any cracks or imperfections.

Can this paint be applied with a sprayer?

The product is designed for application by roller or brush for optimal flow and leveling. Spray application is not recommended without professional advice and equipment suitable for oil-based coatings.

What is the drying time for this paint?

Recoating time is typically 12-24 hours, and full cure for heavy traffic can take several days to a week, depending on conditions. Always refer to the product's specific instructions for precise timings.

How do I clean my newly painted floor?

Clean spills and dirt promptly with a damp cloth. For more stubborn marks, use a mild detergent solution. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.

Is this paint suitable for outdoor use?

Yes, it is suitable for outdoor surfaces like patios, providing a durable and weather-resistant finish.

What is the recommended number of coats?

It is generally recommended to apply two thin coats for best results, ensuring even coverage and maximum protection. Avoid applying excessively thick coats.

Troubleshooting

Paint not adhering well

Ensure the surface was properly prepared, clean, dry, and free from contaminants. Lightly abrade glossy or previously painted surfaces before application.

Uneven or streaky finish

Ensure the paint was thoroughly stirred. Apply in thin, even coats, maintaining a wet edge to avoid lap marks. Ensure consistent pressure with the roller or brush.

Slow drying time

Ensure application conditions are within the recommended temperature and humidity range. Good ventilation can help speed up drying. Avoid applying excessively thick coats.

Paint has a strong odor

This is typical for oil-based paints. Ensure adequate ventilation during application and drying. The odor should dissipate once fully cured.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Preparation is key for optimal results. Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free from grease, oil, and dust. For previously painted surfaces, lightly abrade to ensure good adhesion. The paint is compatible with concrete, cement screed, stone, and existing paint finishes.

  1. Stir the paint thoroughly before and during use.
