What happens here

Resist the temptation to overwork the Flow Coat. Once the material is poured and spread with a squeegee, it should be left alone. While minor imperfections can be gently addressed with a broom, excessive manipulation or overworking the material will lead to a compromised finish and could ruin the entire batch.

Goal: Maintain the integrity and smooth finish of the Flow Coat application.

Tools and materials

  • Broom — Lightly addressing imperfections
  • Squeegee — Initial spreading of Flow Coat
  • Flow Coat — The resurfacing material
