PREPARATION
Concrete surfaces must be cleaned and profiled to the
recommended ICRI - CSP 1 - as specified in Guideline No.
310.2-2013 (formerly 03732), Selecting and Specifying
Concrete Surface Preparation for Sealers, Coatings, and
Polymer Overlays. The surface must be free of sealers, dirt,
oil, paint, moss, dust and other contaminates and must
be open and porous to accept the Antique-It. Proper and
complete substrate preparation is critical to the success of
the project. Surface preparation videos available at www.

APPLICATION
Pour one gallon of water into a five gallon pail, add 6 ounces
of Antique-It powder and mix vigorously until all powder has
dissolved. Pre-wet the slab to be treated. Dip a soft bristle
brush in the Antique-It solution and agitate the product.
Remove the brush and allow the solution to fall out of the
brush and on to the slab. Move the product around to even
the coverage and to allow the color to settle in the imprints.
Continue the process of dipping the brush, agitating the
mix and applying the product across the slab. Water can be
sprayed on the product while it is still wet to dilute the color
as needed. The ratio of water to powder can be increased
or decreased depending on the desired intensity of the color.
