Product Information

Full details

This water-based acrylic floor paint is designed for anyone needing a durable, anti-slip surface, especially in areas where safety is paramount. Its key benefit is providing a hard-wearing, low-risk finish in both wet and dry conditions. A minor consideration is its matt finish, which may not be suitable for decorative purposes where gloss is desired. It offers excellent adhesion to various porous surfaces and dries quickly, making it ideal for both indoor and outdoor applications.

Ensure the paint was stirred thoroughly. Apply using consistent brush strokes or roller technique. Avoid overworking the paint. Ensure application is at the recommended temperature.

Poor anti-slip performance

Verify that the paint was applied at the recommended thickness and that the anti-slip aggregate within the paint was evenly distributed. Ensure the surface was adequately prepared to allow for proper bonding.
