Instructions / Assembly

B. Wearing a dust mask, use the Chip Scraper to scrape the surface and knock
down Decorative Chip edges and remove loose Chips. You will need to use
enough pressure to knock Chips down. Be careful not to gouge the surface
along the edges and corners. Use a vacuum with brush attachment or a soft
hand brush to remove excess Chips.
C. Using the Diamond Embedded Sanding Tool and Sanding Block sand the
countertop as follows:
1. Using the Diamond Embedded Sanding Tool,
sand the flat portion of the countertop
surface in a circular motion, placing
both hands on the tool and using
moderate to heavy pressure. The goal
here is to have a smooth finish on the flat surface.
2. Next, use the Sanding Block to sand the backsplash and front edge. Since
the Sanding Block has fully textured sides, it is used to get into tight spots
the curved backsplash and front edge. You only need enough pressure to
create a smooth, lightly textured surface. Do not sand through the chips.
NOTE:
While sanding, the Decorative Chip layer will look lighter in color, but will
come back to its original color when the Protective Top Coat is applied.
D. Check to see that you have achieved the proper texture by comparing your
countertop surface to the Texture Sample provided in your kit. If your
countertop feels like this sample, you’re all set. If not continue to sand until
smooth.
IMPORTANT:
Reference the “Textured Sample” sanding guide provided in
the kit box. This guide will help you achieve optimal sanding amounts and
final look. The final feel of your countertop depends on how smooth you sand
the chips. Remember, what you feel is what the final product will be; the
Protective Top Coat IS NOT A FILLER.
