The practical spreading rate may be lower as this depends on factors such as the porosity and roughness of the surface to be painted and material losses during application.
Drying Times

Low temperature and high humidity will adversely affect application, drying and performance of any coating.
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 new substrate and prepare accordingly.

Hi How many coats would you recommend for a light industrial unit, only foot fall and the odd pallet truck. It is to cover a concrete floor.
Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team:
Assuming the concrete floor is bare, clean, dry, sound and prepared as detailed in the technical data sheet we would recommend three coats with the first coat thinned 10% with Teamac Thinner 14.

Question:
Hi, Can a sealer can be used over this product to provide more protection and a glossier finish? If so what can you recommend? thanks
Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team:
Rust-Oleum 4900 Polycoat 2K can be applied over existing painted surfaces and is available in a full gloss finish. As it is a 2 pack polyurethane it will be much more durable than the single pack Industrial Floor Paint. We would recommend a test area be undertaken to ensure adhesion.

Question:
Can I paint my kitchen floor with this paint? Thanks
Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team:
Teamac Industrial Floor Paint could be used on your kitchen floor but isn't necessarily a product we would really recommend. The industrial coatings we offer are there to protect the substrate they have been applied to but won't stay looking perfect over time as they will scuff mark and scratch. For a more durable system and assuming the floor is concrete we'd recommend applying a minimum 2 coat application of Rust-Oleum Mathys Pegakote followed by a coat of Rust-O-Thane 9200 Handy Pack in clear for protection.

Could this be used on decking.
Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team:
Yes, however it wouldn't be our first choice for decking and may only last a relatively short period.

Would this be suitable to seal a Concrete garage floor and would it be okay to put carpet tiles on top of it (to use as office). Carpet tiles would not go on until thoroughly dry of course ! Many thanks, Claire

Yes, as long as the coating was allowed to fully cure before over laying with the carpet tiles.
