Surface Preparation

New concrete, plastered or brick surfaces should cure and dry for at least 30 days prior to the application of coatings.

Remove grease, oil and all other surface contaminations with ND14 Cleaner Degreaser or high pressure (steam) cleaning.

Sand previous coatings, which are in good condition to remove gloss and to roughen the surface to create a key.

Remove non-adhering old coatings.

The surface must be clean and dry during application.
