MAY BE HARMFUL IF SWALLOWED. MAY IRRITATE EYES AND SKIN. Wear skin and eye protection. Contains urea monohydrochloride. If in eyes, flush with water for at least 15 minutes. If on skin, wash with soap and water. If irritation persists, seek medical attention. If swallowed, DO NOT induce vomiting, seek medical attention.
Previously applied sealers must be removed as Aqua Stain must penetrate into porous tile. Aqua Mix® Sealer & Coating Remover is recommended to remove existing sealers.
USE CHEMICAL-RESISTANT GLOVES, such as nitrile, when handling product.
Read entire label before using. SHAKE WELL before using. TEST A SMALL AREA according to application instructions, with a 24-hour cure time to determine desired results. Allow new installations to cure 24 hours before applying Aqua Stain for Saltillo. Surface must be clean and free of existing sealers or coatings. Aqua Stain may be used undiluted if a darker stain is desired or diluted with up to 8 parts water for lighter, more translucent stain. Pre-dampen tiles with water. Select a small, manageable area of 4 to 6 ft (.35 M to .55 M) and apply Aqua Stain for Saltillo with a dense sponge or lint-free cotton towel from a shallow dish. For best results, apply to individual tiles by hand. Rub into the tile in a circular motion using as much or as little stain as needed to achieve the desired appearance from the test area. If too much stain is applied or streaking occurs, immediately rework the area with a clean, damp sponge or towel and simply rub out the area using small amounts of water. For both interior and exterior applications, use Aqua Mix® Seal & Finish Low Sheen to seal, protect the color, and provide a durable low-sheen finish. If used on an interior application, and a high-sheen finish is desired, apply Aqua Mix® Floor Shine & Hardener over the Seal & Finish Low Sheen.
Clean applicator tools with water after each use.
Clean tools with water and soap before material dries.
Do not use cleaners containing amonia acids or bleach; use appropriate TileLab or Aqua Mix cleaners.
