- Depending on your surface, you might need to do some sanding or smoothing out rough spots. If there are holes or cracks, fill them up.
Priming:
- Before using Neoproof Polyurea, you need to put on a special primer. Use Epoxol Primer for Concrete and Cement surfaces, and use Metal Primer for metallic surfaces.
