Substrates should be thoroughly sanded or ground to provide a keyed surface.  If applying over existing coatings, adhesion should be tested by preparation of a small test area. Remove all potential contaminants. Contact HOM if unsure. It is generally recommended that the surface to be coated be elevated from the work area to allow the coating to drip freely off the sides. Ensure tape and protective sheeting is used to protect work area. Ensure that the surface is level.

PURE TOUGH is designed to be applied by pouring or spreading to achieve a high build. Apply via brush or spreader. Material can be applied thinly via roller however multiple coatings will be required to achieve the desired result. If bubbles occur, they can be easily broken via use of a heat gun – bubbles should be removed within 30 minutes of application.

Some timber can have rejection issues with natural oils, so between coats wipe down with metho then sand, then wipe down with metho using fresh towels constantly . Multiple coats needs to applied . First coat will seal the timber as timber has a pouress nature to it. Sanding between coats and wiping with metho is required . 

Epoxies outside of Healthofmindart epoxies can have higher surfactants which can cause surface imperfections, wipe the surface with metho before re-coating .
