1. Temperatura y humedad: Apply when air and surface temperatures are between 50-90°F (10-32°C) and relative humidity is below 85%.
2. Herramientas de aplicación: Use a high-quality synthetic roller (e.g., 3/8" nap) for large areas and a synthetic brush for cutting in edges and corners.
3. Primera capa: Apply a thin, even coat of the base coat. Work in small sections, maintaining a wet edge to avoid lap marks.
4. Cobertura: One gallon (122 fl oz) covers approximately 400 square feet, depending on surface porosity and application method.
5. Tiempo de secado entre capas: Allow the first coat to dry for at least 6-8 hours before applying a second coat. Ensure the surface is dry to the touch and not tacky.
6. Segunda capa: Apply a second thin, even coat following the same method as the first. Two coats are generally recommended for optimal durability and appearance.
7. Capa superior: After the base coat has dried for the recommended time (typically 8 hours), apply the Rust-Oleum Home Top Coat (sold separately) according to its specific instructions. The top coat is essential for the full durability and performance of the system.

5. Secado y curado

  • Causa: Over-rolling, applying too thickly, or applying over a porous surface without proper sealing.
  • Solución: Avoid excessive rolling. Apply thinner coats. Ensure surface is properly prepared.
