PRECAUTIONS & TEMPERATURE SAFEGUARDS
DO NOT APPLY IF RAIN IS EXPECTED WITHIN 24 HOURS OF APPLICATION. Apply when surface and air temperature is between 40° and 90° F and will remain between 40° and 90° F for at least 24 hours after application.
APPLICATION
ONE THICK COAT OF ROCKSOLID 2X SOLID STAIN IS REQUIRED.
Thoroughly mix the material before and during project. When using more than one container, combine all
containers to ensure color consistency.
Using a 9” NAP roller cover, saturate the roller cover and apply generously back and forth. Work to a wet edge at all times. Avoid rolling back into coated areas where drying has begun. Coat 1 to 2 boards at a time.
After coating 1-2 boards, use a putty knife or other straight edge to remove excess coating between boards. Difficult areas such as warped or cupped boards will require rolling across the narrow width of the board as well as the length to ensure complete coverage.
Allow 2-4 hours to dry to touch. Allow to dry 24 hours if the temperature is between 50° and 90°F and 48 hours if the temperature is between 40° and 50°F, before light foot traffic and replacing furniture. If the surface is tacky or soft, extend the drying time before putting heavy objects back in place. Full cure to a hard finish will take approximately 7 days. Drying times may vary depending on temperature and humidity.
COVERAGE
Up to 250 square feet per gallon (volume after tinting). One coat is required. Actual coverage may vary based on wood type, age and surface porosity.
CLEAN-UP
Use mild soap and water
KEEP FROM FREEZING. CLOSE CONTAINER AFTER EACH USE TO PRESERVE PRODUCT.
CAUTION: Exterior horizontal surfaces, coated or uncoated, exposed to sun and warm temperatures can create surface temperatures not suitable for bare feet or animal paws
