Modern
Masters® SkimStone® NanoTech Interior Topcoat is a unique, water-based,
polyurethane/acrylic protective topcoat, formulated to enhance the color
and depth of SkimStone Decorative Finish on concrete floors and countertops,
while adding extra durability. The name “NanoTech” refers
to the utilization of nano-sized particles that greatly enhance the
product’s chemical and abrasion resistance.
Surface
Preparation: Allow the final coat of SkimStone Decorative Floor Finish
to dry at least eight (8) hours—preferably overnight—before
applying NanoTech Interior Topcoat. Make sure that the surface is clean
and free of dust and debris and completely dry. For best results, use
when the temperature is between 50°F and 90°F (10°C and
32°C).
Application
to SkimStone Decorative Floor Finish: We recommend using a Padco®
Heavyweight T-bar 12-inch Floor Coater fitted with a Nylfoam® Refill
for coating the main floor areas. Use a Padco® 8-inch Floor Trim
Pad for cutting in. To begin, gently stir the product to ensure uniformity.
DO NOT SHAKE. Shaking may cause air bubbles to form and become trapped
in the dry film. Cut in the starting wall and corners using the Floor
Trim Pad. Pour a continual four- (4) to five- (5) inch wide bead of
NanoTech Interior Topcoat along the length of the floor. With the Heavyweight
T-bar Floor Coater, drag NanoTech Interior Topcoat in a snow plow manner
toward the opposite side of the room. Feather out all turns and stop
marks. Add NanoTech Interior Topcoat as needed to maintain a uniform
finish bead. Continue applying NanoTech Interior Topcoat thinly, cutting
in as you go until the entire surface is coated. Immediately clean the
Floor Trim Pad and Nylfoam® Floor Coater Refill with warm water
to prevent the bristles and fibers from sticking together. As the first
coat dries, it will penetrate and begin to seal the SkimStone Decorative
Finish and bring out the color and depth of the finish. Allow the film
to completely dry before applying the second coat, typically one (1)
hour. NOTE: Colder temperatures and/or higher humidity levels will extent
the dry time. Additional color depth and shine will develop with each
coat. We recommend four (4) to five (5) coats of NanoTech Interior Topcoat
for maximum durability and protection from household spills and normal
wear.
Care
and Maintenance: Allow at least 24 hours of dry time before permitting
light foot traffic or moving in furniture. Maximum hardness of NanoTech
Interior Topcoat will be achieved in three (3) to four (4) days. Use
floors with care during this period. Do not cover with rugs and avoid
sliding furniture across the surface. Use protective felt pads on furniture
legs to protect from scratching. Avoid contact with water. Wipe up spills
with a damp rag. Maintain surface by regular sweeping and vacuuming.
Clean sealed surface with mild cleaner as needed.
Clean
Up: Clean tools and equipment with warm, soapy water immediately after
use.Promptly wipe up spills and spatters with a damp cloth.
