As a general rule of thumb, it takes approximately 1 month of drying time per 25mm of concrete (based on a 100mm thickness). There are exceptions to this rule regarding weather conditions, ie rain, humidity, wind etc, but generally you are looking at 4months of drying time for a 100mm slab to be at the Australian standard of dryness for installing impervious coatings. When using impervious products like epoxy or polyurethane, these coatings do not ‘breathe’ or allow moisture vapour to transmit up through the coating, so it is imperative to wait until full dryness of the concrete. However, for exterior applications most of our acrylic sealers, penetrating sealers and water-based sealers are breathable and can be applied at 28days.
Please follow instructions in the Previous Coatings Guide to determine the suitability of re-coating.

As a bulk supplier we do not provide sample pots or colour cards as these can vary from end result.
There are certain products that are not conducive to sample pots, such as the two packs (would need to do a lot of prep work to match the sample area) or penetrating sealers (due to their natural look sub-surface nature).
Pigmented floor coatings colour is a rough guide as the finish will be totally dependent on many variables including ones surfaces porosity/application spread rate/build/coats etc which may vary from sample to final application.
In addition, due to freight classifications of some items, a surcharge may be applicable regardless of whether it is 200ml or 200 litres.
