PRODUCT APPLICATION (cont.) .
APPLICATION OF DECORATIVE CHIPS
Decorative Chips need to be dispersed quickly over the
entire surface of the countertop before the Adhesive Base
Coat dries. By the time you have finished, the entire
countertop, backsplash, and front edge should be
completely covered with Decorative Chips. Once the
Decorative Chips have been applied, DO NOT TOUCH
the countertop until the coated surface has dried overnight
(a minimum of 12 hours). After the countertop has dried
for a minimum of 12 hours, sand the surface smooth prior
to application of the topcoat.
APPLICATION OF THE TOPCOAT
The topcoat is a special two component clear modified
silicone epoxy finish. This protective finish is low odor and
does not require any special ventilation. Following
application, allow the Protective Top Coat to dry
undisturbed, taking steps to make sure the countertop is
not touched or brushed up against. Keep windows closed,
pets away, and ceiling fans off.
IMPORTANT: Contents of Protective Top Coat are
combustible until applied to the surface. Extinguish all
flames and pilot lights, and turn off stoves, heaters,
electric motors and other sources of ignition during use
until project is complete. Keep away from heat, sparks and
flame. Do not smoke.
Pour the contents of Part A Activator into the Part B Base
and thoroughly mix with astir stick for at least 2 minutes. It
is important to stir thoroughly for proper activation. Pour a
portion of the blended protective Top Coat into a clean
paint tray. Once mixed and activated, the working time is 4
hours.
Use a 2” synthetic paint brush to apply a heavy, even layer
of Protective Top coat to the backsplash. Be sure to cover
1-2” of the flat countertop surface that connects to the
backsplash. This will prevent the roller from accidently
bumping into the backsplash when rolling.
Use a 6” wide high density foam roller to apply the
Protective Top Coat over the flat countertop area and front
edge. Roll a heavy, even coat, from back to front, over the
entire countertop surface. Once complete, re-wet the roller
and re-roll a final pass of Protective Top Coat on the wet
surface of the countertop. Visually inspect the surface and
touch up light areas where needed.
Allow the Protective Top Coat to dry undisturbed, taking
steps to ensure the countertop is not touched or brushed
up against. Keep windows closed, pets away, and ceiling
fans off. The Protective Top Coat will be tack free in 4-6
hours.
The countertop is ready for light use in 48 hours and full
use after 7 days.
