Coverage |
Apply a minimum of two coats in all applications. Additional coats will provide extended durability, texturing effect and water resistance, especially on high traffic surfaces. Surface type and texture will affect the coverage rate. Typical application of 2 coats at a spreading rate of 2 m2/L per coat with a 10 mm nap roller, will yield an average DFT of 570–580 µm for two coats. |

Ancillary Products |
Primer Prior to applying LUXAPOOL® Poolside & Paving, unpainted surfaces will require priming. Unpainted concrete, masonry, pebblecrete and fibreglass: ACRYLMERIC® Superseal Primer (solvent based option) or ACRYLMERIC® WB Epoxy Primer Membrane (water-based option) Timber: Colormaker Pink Wood Primer (solvent based) Top coat Application of a final coat of UNICRYL® HD Clear Glaze on top of LUXAPOOL® Poolside & Paving will enhance colour and gloss, provide increased resistance to staining and facilitate cleaning. However, this coating will also reduce anti-slip properties. For this reason a second coat of UNICRYL® HD Clear Glaze is not recommended on trafficable surfaces. |
