PATIO DECK TONES Water Based Non-Slip Coating for Pool Decks

PATIO TONES deck coatings are lightly textured, slip resistant top coatings specifically formulated for use on concrete pool decks and patios. They are available in eight colors.

One big advantage to using PATIO TONES on a deck finish is that you may paint over cracked or broken concrete that has been repaired thereby concealing any substrate damage.

PATIO TONES has been tested for durability and bonding strength under the most severe conditions and has proven to be a high quality, low cost way to improve the appearance of concrete pool decks and patio areas. Because PATIO TONES is water based, it can be applied to wet concrete.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE

Surface must be free of grease, suntan oil, body oil, dirt and foreign matter. First sweep the area vigorously to remove all loose material. Then, scrub with a solution of tri-sodium phosphate, or Olympic #910 Pool Washing Compound at a ratio of eight ounces to one gallon of water. This will remove oils which prevent adhesion. Hose off immediately with water. At that point, it is best to acid wash the surface with 10% solution of muriatic acid. This creates pores to allow adhesion. Hose off, and then repeat the tri-sodium phosphate procedure to neutralize any remaining acid. If not neutralized, acid-salts will form and impede PATIO TONES performance. Hose off one last time.

First Coat: Surface may be wet but do not roll PATIO TONES through standing water or "puddles." On bone dry surfaces thin one pint per gallon with water. Use a 1/2" nap roller cover on smooth surfaces. Use a 3/4" nap roller cover on rougher surfaces. Flow on slowly and evenly. Avoid overspreading. Do not apply when air or surface temperature is under 50˚ F. Avoid rolling during a very hot, midday sun.

Drying Time: May be recoated in four hours in warm weather 80˚ F or above. Longer in cooler weather. PATIO TONES should be given 24 hours curing time before foot traffic is allowed.

Coverage: Average 80 - 125 square feet per gallon, depending on the porosity of the surface.

Clean up: Clean application equipment with water immediately after use.

Previously Painted Surfaces

PATIO TONES will adhere to most other paints; however, any glossy areas should be sanded before recoating. Any peeling or flaking paint must also be removed before recoating.
