EQUIPMENT NEEDED

An acid-resistant, low-pressure spray apparatus, such as a manually operated pump-tank sprayer

OR hand pump spray bottle with adjustable tip

BEFORE APPLYING

1. Always begin with a clean, bare surface, free of wax or grease buildup, sealers, etc.

2. Apply product on small test area using procedures listed below. Surface and brush texture will vary from application to application, so this is to indicate how much brushing time is needed.

3. After a couple minutes of brushing, run a small piece of leather or rubber over the surface to ensure slip resistance is at desired level.

4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 until desired slip resistance is achieved.

5. Wait until test area is dry, usually 1 to 2 hours, to make sure there are no problems with the surface, such as invisible buildups, which would react adversely with VITRITRED.

HOW TO APPLY

Follow steps listed above before applying to ensure a
successful application.

1. Use an acid-resistant, low-pressure spray apparatus, such as a manually operated pump-tank sprayer or hand pump spray bottle with adjustable tip.

2. Coverage rate varies with porosity size. Ceramic tile uses about 400 square feet per gallon; granite, smooth or hard troweled finish concrete uses about 300.

3. Apply generously in a solid spray stream, treating only 30 to 40 square feet at a time.

4. Immediately begin brushing wetted area with a very soft-bristled brush in a circular motion. Do not use pads or hard bristled brushes!

5. Total brushing time may vary from 2 to 8 minutes, depending on surface and brush texture.

6. Light traces of lather are usually visible when brushing. If they aren't, you may need to spray-apply more VITRITRED while brushing.

7. Generously rinse floor immediately after brushing to neutralize VITRITRED before moving on to the next 30 to 40 square feet area. Mop dry.

PRECAUTIONS

1. Avoid splattering surfaces not intended for treatment. Damage could occur.

2. Avoid contact with eyes or skin. Use protective eyewear and latex gloves. Other protective clothing is not necessary.

3. Surface traction effectiveness can be field tested before and after an application by sliding a piece of rubber or leather over treated surface to determine traction quality increase.

4. Read Material Safety Data Sheet prior to use.
