Product performance overview

Removing a failed or incompatible coating is a reset process. The existing film, number of layers, substrate, temperature, dwell time, mechanical assistance, and waste handling all affect the removal plan. A new coating should not be used to hide a failing base layer.

Coverage planning

Measure before ordering

Coverage depends on coating thickness, temperature, porosity, and dwell time. Multiple or heavy layers may require additional product or applications.

Job planning

Build the application around product requirements

Identify the coating, isolate a test area, protect adjacent surfaces, follow the specified application and dwell time, assist mechanically only when appropriate, collect residue, and complete the required rinse or neutralization.

Four-stage process

Application overview

  1. Protect vegetation, glass, metals, and adjacent surfaces from contact or overspray.
  2. Apply a uniform flood coat and maintain the label dwell time, currently about 15–20 minutes for typical work.
  3. Agitate stubborn areas and repeat only when the surface and label directions allow it.
  4. Rinse thoroughly, collect residue responsibly, and allow the surface to dry before testing or resealing.

Technical noteSurface compatibility, weather, moisture, dilution, mixing, dwell time, and cure requirements vary by product. Read the current label and SDS, test a small area, and follow the product-specific technical directions before full application.

A typical dwell is about 15–20 minutes, but coating thickness, temperature, and surface conditions can change the required time. Follow the label.

Can I reseal after using it?

Yes, after all residue is removed, the substrate is clean and compatible, and the surface has reached the moisture condition required by the new sealer.
