Wet Look Lacquer HG
High Gloss Sealer for Decorative Concrete & Masonry Surfaces
Application Guide
IMPORTANT NOTE: Before use on a job, thoroughly test this product on a sample to assure performance and appearance.
SURFACE PREPARATION:
Surface must be completely clean and dry to the touch.
Remove all dirt, wax, old paints or sealers with
appropriate cleaner, chemical stripper or abrasive
blasting. If muriatic acid has been used the surface must
be flushed with clean water and neutralized with a pH
neutralizer. We do not recommend muriatic acid for
cleaning concrete as it will discolor the surface, etch
the concrete, and is hazardous to use. After cleaning,
allow surface to dry 24 hours prior to sealer application.
Allow new concrete to cure for at least 14 days before
application.
APPLICATION EQUIPMENT:
Wet Look Lacquer HG can be applied with a sponge,
brush, roller, or most types of spray equipment. For
small areas, a pump-up garden sprayer is convenient,
however, do not allow the lacquer to dry on the spray
tip. If this occurs, soak tip in lacquer thinner and clean
with stiff brush.
Brush ................................. synthetic bristle brush.
Roller ........................... "1/2" nap lambs wool roller.
Airless sprayer tip size .................. 0.013" � 0.015"
APPLICATION PROCEDURE:
One coat will seal, protect and enhance the beauty of
the surface, Additional coats will give more protection
and higher gloss. If a second coat is desired, apply as
soon as the first coat is dry to the touch.
Porous Surfaces - paver brick, flagstone, Mexican clay tile, etc.
Generally, one coat will provide complete protection. A
second coat will provide added protection and higher
gloss. To strengthen old, porous and crumbling surfaces
additional applications may be required.
Dense Surfaces - slate, limestone, stone, concrete tile, etc.
One light to moderate coat supplies complete protection
and a high gloss finish. More than one coat for dense
surfaces is not recommended.
Do not apply Wet Look Lacquer HG during inclement
weather or in direct sunlight when temperature exceeds
80�F. Application to a damp surface or incompletely
cured concrete may cause a hazy appearance or loss
of adhesion. Air and surface temperature should be
between 50� and 90�F for 24 hours following application.
Water Penetration Test:
To insure that the application provides proper protection
apply this test. Sprinkle a small amount of water on the
sealed surface. If water penetration occurs or if water
does not bead up on the surface, apply additional sealer.
This test should be performed for each applied coat.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Over application and excess sealer should not be allowed
to pool or puddle. Wipe up any pools immediately.
