EXO Application Instructions Surgically Clean Surface
Surface to be treated must be surgically clean and free from any oils, waxes, sealants and silicones. Start by cleaning and degreasing any surface to be treated using a wax, grease and silicone remover. For this project we used
Wurth Clean-Solve Surface Temperature – Surface should be cool to the touch
Fahrenheit
Surface temperature must be at least
68 degrees Fahrenheit and no hotter than
104 degrees Fahrenheit for proper application and bonding.
Celsius
Surface temperature must be at least
20 degrees Celsius and no hotter than
40 degrees Celsius for proper application and bonding.
Smooth, glossy or matte hard nonabsorbent surfaces
• Dampen one side of a clean, microfiber towel folded 4-ways by spraying directly on to cloth surface.
• Evenly spread EXO over the surface to bet treated using a gentle overlapping motion.
• After applying EXO to one panel, immediately switch to a second, clean, dry microfiber towel and remove any excess reside to leave a streak-free finish.
• Repeat this process 20 minutes later to the same area to ensure uniform coverage, protection and appearance.
• Allow 48 hours for the coating to fully cure before introducing water or moisture to the treated surface.
