What happens here
Immediately after spreading the clear topcoat with the squeegee, use a nap roller on a long handle to backroll the entire surface. This step eliminates any squeegee lines or imperfections, ensuring a perfectly smooth and even final topcoat. Continue to wear spiked shoes until the topcoat has sufficiently set to avoid leaving marks.
Goal: Smooth and level the applied clear epoxy topcoat for a uniform finish.
