NoStick™ Liquid Release Agent

Preliminary Testing

Before using the product for your entire project, try it out on a small, hidden area of the surface you'll be working on.

Pre-Application

• Ensure the concrete surface is clean, free of debris, and freshly troweled to the desired smoothness.
• The concrete should be at a "plastic" state, ready for texturing or stamping.
• Equip all applicators with nuisance dust masks, goggles, and chemical-resistant gloves for safety.
• The concrete slab should be ready for stamping with no bleed water present after the final troweling.

Application

• Apply NoStick™ Liquid Release Agent in temperatures between 50°F and 80°F (10°C to 26.7°C) to ensure optimal performance and evaporation rate without leaving residues.
• Tool Preparation: Clean and dry all texturing tools and stamp mats to ensure no previous materials or residues interfere with the new application.
• Sprayer Setup: Use a pump-type sprayer without a filter to apply NoStick™. This ensures an even and liberal distribution of the liquid release agent.
• Application Area: Liberally mist NoStick™ onto both the texturing mats and the designated concrete surface area. Focus on an area of approximately 10 to 15 square feet (.929 - 1.39 m²) to prevent evaporation before the mats are placed.
• Timing and Technique: Apply NoStick™ just before placing the texturing mats to ensure the liquid does not evaporate. Never trowel or mix NoStick™ into the concrete surface. For adjustments or corrections, use the texturing tools to press out unwanted impressions directly.
• Reapplication: Reapply NoStick™ as necessary, especially on dry or windy days, to maintain a lubricating layer between the concrete surface and texturing tools.

Coverage

Estimated coverage is approximately 150-250 square feet (13.93-23.22 m²) per gallon. Actual coverage rates may differ based on factors such as surface porosity, chosen application method, and prevailing environmental conditions.

Clean-Up

For cleanup of NoStick™ spills and tools use soap and water

Disposal

Dispose of unused product according to local environmental or hazardous waste regulations.

Shelf Life and Storage

Store NoStick™ in a cool, dry place with the container tightly sealed. If unopened and stored properly in its original plastic bucket, its shelf life is approximately 2 years. Avoid extreme conditions.

Maintenance

Regularly inspect the sealed surface for areas where the sealer may have become thin or worn due to traffic. It is advisable to reapply sealer in these areas as necessary. For interior surfaces, monitor and maintain wax coatings or polish, especially in high-traffic areas.
