Completely change the look of your laminate kitchen floor on a budget! Rust-Oleum HOME Floor Coating is a hassle free, two-part system that requires no stripping, sanding or priming and creates long-lasting results you'll love.
- To get started, make sure your floor is clean of dirt and debris and dry. We recommend using Original Krud Kutter Cleaner and Degreaser.
- Apply painter's tape along the edges and anywhere you don't want to paint. Start by trimming the edges with the Rust-Oleum HOME Base Coat using a high-quality brush.
- Then, apply the Rust-Oleum HOME Base Coat in 4’x4’ sections, and maintain a wet edge while rolling. Do not let product puddle. One coat is recommended. After coating the entire floor, wait 6 hours before applying any necessary touch-ups. Allow touched-up areas to dry for 1-2 hours (dry to touch) and then Top Coat can be applied. If no touch ups are necessary, Top Coat may be applied 6 hours after initial Base Coat application.
- Next, apply the Rust-Oleum Home Top Coat.First, trim the edges using a high quality brush.Then, roll the Top Coat in 4’x4’ sections and maintain a wet edge while rolling. Do not let product puddle. One coat is recommended. If a second coat is desired for additional durability or uniformity, wait until the first coat is dry to touch (1-2 hours) before applying, but must be applied within 24 hours.
- Allow the floor to dry for 24 hours before walking on it. Allow 72 hours before replacing any furniture (avoid dragging). Full cure is 7 days. Do not wash before 7 days.
