Surface Preparation
All surfaces should be clean, dry, sound and free from contaminants. Concrete - power floated, granolithic and smooth surfaces should be roughened first to provide a good "key" for the paint. This can be done mechanically by abrading or blasting, or chemically, using Coo-Var Acid Etch. These processes will have the advantage in addition to preparing the surface of also removing dirt and laitance.
New concrete must be allowed to cure thoroughly which can take up to 3 months. Other surfaces have to be prepared and primed with the suitable primer for that substrate.
Existing painted surfaces - Surfaces should be cleaned, degreased and sanded to ensure an adequate "key" is produced. Remove all loose and flaking material and treat bare areas as a new surface.

We have a garden path of concrete flags with a border of bricks. This can become dangerously slippery especially in a shaded sloping area where leaves also fall. What product would you recommend, please?
Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team:
Assuming the concrete flag path has a damp proof membrane, the flags are clean, dry, sound and prepared as detailed in the technical data sheet we can recommend the flags are acid etched with Coo-Var Acid Etch followed one coat of Coo-Var Floor Paint thinned 10% then two coats of Coo-Var Suregrip Anti-Slip Floor Paint.
This is available in a range of colours.
Please note that at this time of year it is too cold and damp to apply paints for this application, we would recommend waiting for a dry period when the temperatures are above 10°C

Question:
We have a new house with a tiled kitchen floor, (stone type), it is very dangerously slippery with any water on it. Would this be a good product to use to make the floor safe?
Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team:
Unfortunately no, while this is an anti-slip paint it would be quite rough on bare feet and not easy to clean.
This is available in a range of colours in a semi-gloss finish.

Question:
Is this the best product for an outdoor, cement garden path? I need it to be slip-resistant, durable so I'm not recoating every year, preferably roller application and pet-friendly when dry. The Hard Dry time needs to be as short as possible too as I have pets that will be barred from the garden for the drying duration.
Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team:
Assuming the path is concrete, clean, dry, sound and prepared in the Technical Data sheet we can recommend Coo-var Anti-slip Acrylic Floor Paint for this application to an external path.
Most of the external options have very similar drying and curing times but none are classed as pet safe.
The fully cured time is approximately 7 days.

Question:
Hi, I have always applied every year 2 pack floor paint to a concrete floor in our fish processing area where there would be a wet area, this paint is not non slip and needs coating once a year, I have got a quotation from a specialist company to re do this floor but the price i was quoted is ridiculous. so could you recommend something non slip and hard wearing
Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team:
We would suggest 503 Easy Clean Anti Slip Coating, this is a high-build epoxy resin coating containing a hard wearing fine particle anti slip additive that is pre-dispersed into the resin and held in suspension. The result providers a ready to use product that leaves an evenly textured, slip resistant surface that is easy to clean and extremely durable.
