What you'll need:

  • Watco Epoxy Gloss Coat
  • Watco Painting Kit
  • 12“ Roller Frame & Telescopic Handle
  • Plastic Scuttle
  • 2“ and 5“ Paint Brush
  • Electric Drill fitted with Mixing Blade 

STEP 1 – PREPARATION 

  • Thoroughly clean the surface to ensure it is free of dust and dirt. 
  • If applying to hard, smooth, powerfloated concrete use Watco Powerfloat Primer. 
  • If the concrete is new or bare, remove surface laitance, dust and any light dirt or grease deposits using Watco Etch and Clean. 

STEP 2 – MIXING

  • Remove the two inner tins.
  • Stir the content of both tins thoroughly. 
  • Pour the mixed components back into the larger 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 using a medium pile roller. Best results are obtained in warm (minimum 15C), dry conditions with good ventilation. 
  • The coating will darken slightly as it cures, and it should not be over rollered. 
  • The second coat can be applied as soon as the first coat is dry (generally 4-6 hours).
