After etching slabs normally dry off very quickly. Use a wet vac along the joints to remove any excess water or blow them out with an air hose - make sure no oil of water is in the air supply. If it looks dry it usually is because washing does not allow water to penetrate into the slab, that usually takes a long time to occur.

Make damn sure it's dry, or you'll have a mess on your hands. One of those things if you fool around with, you'll be very disappointed.

I learned a couple things doing the job. I used a 12" roller which is a good thing. But i bought a cheap kit because i knew i would be tossing it out when i was done. Well this stuff is heavy and it takes allot of force to spread it.the cheap roller was to flimsy and would bend all over and the roller pad would want to come off . Finally it broke. The longer the pot(paint) sits while working with it the harder it gets to spread. As it is hardening. Also i forgot to mix the sand in the paint when i mixed it...oops! Its a added $$ for non skid. I guess i will have to bring it back. Also the stuff poors off the fumes.. Says they recomend you to power mix the 2 parts together...i dont think its an option!!!
