InvisaTread® Detailed Application Instructions
Tools Required:
**PRE-APPLICATION TESTING***
Utilize steps 1 – 4 below on a small hidden area, or extra tile to determine dwell time for your particular surface and desired traction. In general, longer dwell time equals higher traction. Start with 6 minutes of dwell and work up to no more than 16 minutes. Occasionally, 2 applications are needed to increase traction to desired levels, rinse/extract 1st application & repeat steps 2-4.
In 1st 5 gallon bucket, mix 6 oz. TractionWash™ per gallon of water, a 1:20 dilution. Use a higher concentration (up to 12 oz/gal) if very dirty or greasy. Set aside remaining solution for RINSE step.
Step 1: CLEAN. Clean the floor very well with the TractionWash™ solution.
If necessary, use the deck brush to scrub the tile & grout for very dirty floors. Rinse the floor with clean water and dry. Use a wet dry vacuum or extraction tool, if available. It is ok to leave the grout joints wet or damp.
Step 2: APPLY. Spray or spread the InvisaTread® onto the area to be treated. Use a liberal amount of product. Coverage should not be about 400 sq. ft per gallon.
Step 3: DWELL. Allow InvisaTread® to dwell for 6 – 16 min (exact time shall be determined by your pre-application testing). Keep surface saturated with product during the entire dwell time. DO NOT allow to dry out, puddle or run off. Apply more InvisaTread®, as needed.
Step 4: RINSE. After dwell time has elapsed pour 1:20 TractionWash™ dilution onto the tile and scrub grout joints with brush to break up residue. Extract surface. Rinse a 2nd time with clean water and then extract surface. Surface is ready for immediate use.
***Test traction by wetting the surface with clean water and trying to slide foot.
If more traction is desired, do a 2nd application, repeat steps 2 – 4.***
Clean regularly with TractionWash™ @ 1:32 dilution, to maintain your enhanced Coefficient Of Friction (COF).
Troubleshooting – if necessary
After grout has completely dried out you might notice some white residue form in a few spots over the next few days. This is simply a salt residue left over after application; it is not harmful and will be removed with regular cleaning over the next few days. To remove right away, scrub with 1:4 dilution of vinegar to water, or 1:32 dilution of TractionWash™ to water. NOTE: This does not occur on every application or every type of grout.
