How Do You Apply SureCrete XS-PC12 High Gloss Concrete Casting Sealer?
Any surface that is about to be sealed needs to be fully cured, clean and free of all contaminants, and fully profiled and etched.
Pour 1 part B into clean mixing container containing three parts A. Mix mechanically for 2 minutes until catalyzed.
For the first coat, pour out XS-PC12 food safe concrete sealer onto your surface and spread with a high-density foam roller, making sure to only work on areas that can be finished in about 4-5 minutes.
Backroll each work area before it becomes tacky.
Once the first coat is dry to the touch, the surface is ready for a second coat.
The second layer is mixed and applied the same as the first coat.
24 hours after second coat is applied, the surface is ready for light use, and is fully cured and safe food concrete after seven days.
