DIRECTIONS FOR USE:
FIRST REFLECTIONS provides an excellent base
for the application of acrylic floor finishes. For
best results, apply two coats to provide superior
adherence to flooring substrate, as well as
leveling a floors surface imperfections to
maximize the gloss potential of your floor finish.
Always apply FIRST REFLECTIONS to a newly
stripped floor. With a clean, rayon/cotton blend
mop, apply by first “framing” the area to be
finished, then go back and fill in the “framed”
area with a gentle side-to-side mopping motion,
being certain to overlap each pass slightly. If a
rectangular applicator is used, be certain that
each pass slightly overlaps the previous one.
Let each coat dry to the touch before recoating.
Drying time is approximately 30 minutes. High
humidity could prolong drying time. A fan can
be used to reduce drying time. Allow the seal to
set for 10 minutes before starting a fan. Do not
use a fan in areas where dust could be blown
onto sealer. Apply a second coat of FIRST
REFLECTIONS using the same method outlined
above. After 30 minutes begin applying a floor
finish.
PROFESSIONAL SECRETS TO
EFFECTIVE FLOOR CARE
• Do not use your stripping or rinsing mop, or
bucket, for the application of floor sealers. Always
start with a clean, previously wrung-out cotton/rayon
mop and bucket. Save this mop and bucket just for
the application of sealer.
• To avoid the accumulations of finish build-up in
corners or on baseboards, always apply the first coat
no closer than 12 inches from baseboards. Apply
second coat, and every other coat up to baseboards.
• Always apply even, medium coats. To ensure the
application of medium coats, wring out the bottom
half of a fully saturated mop.
• Discard unused sealer. Pouring unused sealer from
your bucket back into the original container can spoil
the good sealer.
