Painting Procedure

For Green Concrete (New Concrete less than 28 days):

Allow concrete to stand for at least 4 days after setting. Remove any contaminants that may affect paint adhesion.
Apply 1-2 coats A-Plus® Concrete Sealer at package viscosity. Allow 1-2 hours drying time in-between each coat. Let cure for at least 2 hours before painting.

For Existing Well-Cured Concrete:

If efflorescence is present, remove by flushing off with high water pressure with the aid of a wire brush. If concrete is previously painted, remove as much of the old paint as possible to allow A-Plus® Concrete Sealer to have direct contact with the bare concrete surface.
Apply 1-2 coats A-Plus® Concrete Sealer at package viscosity. Allow 1-2 hours drying time in-between each coat. Let cure for at least 2 hours before painting.

Suggested Painting System on Concrete Surfaces:

Waterproofing(Optional): For positive side waterproofing on areas such as Firewalls, Bathrooms, Roofdecks, Basements, etc., apply 3-4 coats of a mixture of A-Plus® Concrete Bond with portland cement at 1-Ltr to 1-Kg ratio. Pot life is approx 4 hours. Allow 2-3 hours drying between each coat. For superior waterproofing on both positive and negative side water pressure, apply 2-3 coats of A-Plus Water-Check®.
Primer-Sealer: Observe proper concrete curing schedule. Apply 1-2 coats of A-Plus® Concrete Sealer using either brush or roller.
Putty: Repair all minor cracks and surface imperfections with A-Plus Concrete Putty. For a luxuriously smooth finish, apply A-Plus® Skim Coat 501/503.
Primer: Apply 1-2 coats of A-Plus® Concrete Sealer using either brush or roller.
Topcoat: Apply 2-3 coats of your choice color of A-Plus All Weather® Paint. Allow 2-3 hours drying time between each coat.
