Using this specific product

Before you start

  • Confirm the package says Pedestrian deck coating; related versions can use different timing.
  • For balcony decks and walkway coatings, pay particular attention to roof temperature, dew, rain in the forecast, film thickness and how many coats are needed.
  • Applied at 40°F or above. The source gives no conditions for this time.

How to check readiness

Check that the surface is dry and that no rain or dew is forecast inside the stated window. The sheet gives foot traffic at 24 hours. The sheet gives vehicle traffic after a minimum of 24 to 48 hours.
