HOW TO USE PAVING PAINT
Paving Paint is quite similar to regular paint, however there are certain ways to use it. Here are some suggestions:
- Always prepare the surface that needs painting with paving paint. If you’re painting over new concrete, make sure it’s already cured before you apply the paint. This means the concrete should first be allowed to cure for at least four weeks prior to starting painting. Colormaker has other products available for painting onto fresh / green concrete, see ACRYLMERIC WB Epoxy Primer Membrane
- If you’re painting over old concrete, clean it beforehand by using a suitable detergent /degreaser and then rinsing it thoroughly after with a pressure washer
- New or smooth concrete should be acid etched with a solution of one part Hydrochloric Acid to five parts water, then thoroughly rinsed off with water.
- If you’re working on a previously painted surface? Clean it with a suitable detergent /degreaser, rinse it with a pressure washer (as above), and then remove any peeling and loose paint before applying a new coat.
- Priming: it is preferable to prime bare concrete surfaces with one coat of ACRYLMERIC Superseal Primer 24 hours prior to painting to assist adhesion of the paving paint. New wooden floors should be primed with COLORMAKER Pink Wood Primer. You should follow the directions of use for all primers, and ensure the primer has completely cured before coating with the paving paint.
- Non-Slip Finish: To achieve a non-slip finish you can add COLORMAKER Non-Slip Additive to COLORMAKER Paving Paints. You need to remove some paint from the paving paint can before adding the Non-Slip Additive. (for full details on this see Tech Data Sheet)
- Before application, stir the Paving Paint thoroughly with a broad, flat paddle using an up and down scooping action for at least 5 minutes.
- To apply paving paint outdoors, we recommend using a wide paintbrush or 12mm nap roller as these tools cover more area. With brush application, apply liberally and lay off with the tip of the brush. Paving paint can also be sprayed using an 11 thou/0.3mm tip with an air assisted or airless spray system. When using a spray, the paving paint can be thinned sparingly with mineral turpentine.
- We recommend applying two to three coats of paving paint to any surface. This will add durability and give you a longer coating life.
- Wait for at least 16 hours before applying a second coat. Plus ensure that surfaces coated with paving paint aren’t subjected to heavy traffic for a week to make the most of the application.
