How to paint heavily trafficked floors in only one day with Watco Fastcoat

WHAT YOU'LL NEED

Watco Fastcoat
Watco Painting Kit:
12" Roller, Frame & Handle
Plastic Scuttle
5" Paint Brush & 2" Paint Brush
Mixing Stick
Electric Drill fitted with Mixing Blade

STEP 1 - PREPARATION

Thoroughly clean the surface to ensure it is free of dust and dirt.
If the concrete is new or bare, remove surface laitance, dust and any light dirt or grease deposits using Watco Etch & Clean.
If the surface has heavy deposits of grease or oil, use Watco Concroff or for painted surfaces, Watco Bio-D.

STEP 2 - MIXING

Remove the three inner tins.
Stir the contents of the tins thoroughly.
Use a spatula or similar wide bladed tool (a piece of wooden batten is ideal).
Pour the mixed components into the larger outer tin.
Mix thoroughly with a mixing blade until even in colour and consistency.
Pour the coating into a plastic scuttle for immediate use.

STEP 3 - APPLICATION

Use a paint brush to cut in around the edges of the surface.
Apply by short pile roller (not medium pile or foam) and work well into the surface.
Avoid applying to paint too thickly as this will result in reduced coverage.
Immediately sprinkle the anti slip aggregate evenly onto the wet coating.
Using the same roller, roll over the sprinkled aggregate to bed in and create an even finish.
