Preparing Tile

You need to remove grease, soap residue, silicone contamination, floor waxes (e.g. Mop-and-Glow).

  • clean using a heavy-duty degreaser or TSP substitute - rinse thoroughly - DO NOT ALLOW RINSE WATER TO DRY BACK ON TO THE CONCRETE.

Verify water uniformly wets the surface without excessive beading.

Wipe with acetone-dampened rags.

Keep a cotton rag very wet with acetone and follow with a fresh white microfiber after each pass.

Apply a test area to verify adhesion.
