Colors may vary from batch to batch due to variations in feed stock. Colors or gloss may be affected by environmental conditions such as high humidity, temperature extremes or chemical exposure during of after application. This product should not be topcoated without a thorough field test to evaluate coating compatibility and adhesion characteristics. When applying subsequent coats of NIF 100 Mega-Build HP, we recommend roughening, deglossing and thoroughly cleaning the previous coat before application begins.
