FAQs

What surfaces can Coo-Var Anti-Slip Acrylic Floor Paint be used on?

It is suitable for concrete, wood, tarmac, stone, brickwork, and suitably prepared metal surfaces.

How long does it take to dry?

The paint is touch dry in 1 to 2 hours and ready for recoating after 6 hours. Full hardness is achieved in 5-7 days.

Is this paint suitable for outdoor use?

Yes, it is suitable for both internal and external use and provides a hard-wearing, anti-slip finish.

What is the coverage rate?

Estimated coverage is between 5-9 square meters per litre.

What kind of finish does it provide?

It dries to a matt finish.

How should I clean the painted surface?

Clean with a damp cloth or a mild detergent solution. Avoid abrasive cleaners. Ensure the paint has fully cured before vigorous cleaning.

Do I need to prime the surface first?

While not explicitly stated for all surfaces, proper preparation is crucial. For metal, priming is generally recommended. For new or treated timber, specific advice should be sought.

Troubleshooting

Paint is not adhering well

Ensure the surface was properly cleaned, dry, and free from contaminants before application. Light abrasion of the surface can also improve adhesion.

Uneven or patchy finish

Apply paint evenly with a roller, avoiding overworking. Ensure consistent application thickness. Check for adequate surface preparation.

Slow drying time

Drying times are dependent on temperature and humidity. Ensure application occurs within recommended temperature ranges and avoid very humid conditions.

Surface remains slippery

This is unlikely if applied correctly. Ensure the anti-slip properties are not obscured by a thick, uneven coat. Ensure the product is the anti-slip variant.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Preparation is Key:

  • Ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free from grease, oil, or loose material.

  • For metal surfaces, ensure they are free from rust and properly primed for optimal performance.
  • Special attention is required for new timber or timber treated with preservatives; consult manufacturer advice.

Application:

  • Apply using a roller for best results. An extension pole can aid application, especially on larger areas.
  • A brush can be used for edges and smaller areas.
  • Ensure adequate ventilation during application, especially if used indoors.

Compatibility:

  • Suitable for concrete, wood, tarmac, stone, brickwork, and prepared metal.

Care and Maintenance:

  • Clean with a damp cloth or a mild detergent solution. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  • Allow the paint to cure fully (5-7 days) before subjecting it to heavy traffic or cleaning.
  • Regular cleaning will help maintain the appearance and anti-slip properties.
