Overview

Granite Primer (Step 1)

• Floor and wall coating
• Apply Textured Primer to achieve an optimum working surface prior to application of your Beauti-Tone spreadable stone coatings
• Textured Primer has a very thick consistency - for additional workability two or three tablespoons of water per litre may be added
• Textured Primer may be tinted (recommended)
• Sometimes this is desired if you are going to use a grout pattern in your installation
• Coverage: 1L covers approximately 42 sq. feet
• Drying time: approximately 1 hour
• Applicator: small roller or paint brush SURFACE PREPARATION: INTERIOR CONCRETE:
• Surface should be level and in good condition
• Repairs should be made prior to the application of the Textured Primer
• Scrub with TSP, rinse completely, allow to dry fully EXTERIOR CONCRETE:

• Option #1: etch with 1:1 solution of muratic acid and water, then scrub with a stiff deck brush and a strong TSP solution and rinse completely
• Option #2: power wash surface - using unit with at least 2400 PSI pressure - holding nozzle about 3" from surface NEW CONCRETE:
• Allow a minimum 28 days to cure NEW MASONRY:
• Allow 48 hours or longer before application WOOD:
• Surface must be clean and in good condition, free of dust, dirt, surface sealers and any other contaminants which may block adhesion PLYWOOD FLOORS:
• Must be at least 1/2" thickness
• For best results tongue and groove wood is the best - it minimizes movement between sheets and fastened solidly to floor joist
• Beauti-Tone spreadable stone coatings are highly flexible but it is still best to ensure precautions are taken
• For additional security - apply a mesh and scratch coat to the wood surface prior to applying Beauti-Tone spreadable stone coatings
