This will open the pores of the wood and create a textured surface that is easier for the coating to adhere to. Step 2 – Clean: Clean the surface using a deck brush and the Restore Deck & Concrete Cleaner. The surface must be completely clean and free of dirt, grease, mildew and organic growth to ensure product bonding and adhesion.

Follow the PREPARATION instructions on the label to be sure the Restore 10X Advanced adheres properly to the wood. Q. Can Restore be applied directly over a previously painted surface? A. NO.

PAGE 6
RESTORE 10X Advanced Resurfacer FAQs Page 6 of 11 ALL EXISTING SEALERS, PAINTS, STAINS, WATER REPELLANTS OR OTHER FINISHES MUST BE REMOVED for Restore 10X Advanced to adhere properly. To check for the presence of these, conduct a splash test by sprinkling water on multiple areas of the surface. Check at least 4 areas, or more for larger areas. Be sure to check both high traffic areas such as walkways and non‐traffic areas. If the water absorbs rapidly into the surface, the surface is ready to be coated.

My concrete patio already has paint on it. Can I apply this over another coating? A. You cannot apply Restore 10X Advanced Resurfacer directly over another coating. ALL EXISTING SEALERS, PAINTS, STAINS, WATER REPELLANTS OR OTHER FINISHES MUST BE REMOVED for Restore 10X Advanced Resurfacer to adhere properly.

RESTORE 10X Advanced Resurfacer FAQs Page 9 of 11 Q. Can I add water to Restore to thin it? A. NO. Q. Do I really need to use the Restore Honeycomb Roller when applying Restore 10X Advanced? A. YES. The honeycomb roller cover is specifically designed to work with the thickness and texture of the Restore 10X Advanced product. Other traditional paint roller covers leave a splotchy uneven coat. Q. I am applying Restore 10X Advanced with the textured roller, why is the product splattering? A.
PAGE 10
RESTORE 10X Advanced Resurfacer FAQs Page 10 of 11 Q. How long before furniture can be placed on the deck after the deck has been coated? A. 48 hours. We recommend that deck furniture have rubber tipped legs to avoid scraping the deck surface. Avoid dragging furniture on the Restore coated surface. It will abrade the surface and wear down the coating in the areas where dragging has occurred. CLEAN UP, STORAGE & DISPOSAL Q. How do I clean up after application? A.

RESTORE 10X Advanced Resurfacer FAQs Page 11 of 11 Q. Will Restore 10X Advanced Resurfacer become hot in the sun? A. Yes. Just like any painted surface, Restore will become hot when exposed to the sun. If you are concerned about surface temperatures, or are applying Restore to a surface that has high exposure to sun (pool decks, sun decks, etc.), we recommend choosing our lightest colors, such as Beach or Cape Cod Gray. Lighter colors reflect light, while darker colors attract and absorb it.
