Step 1: Prepare and Clean the Substrate

Good results start with a flawless base. Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and level, removing any dust, grease, oil, or previous finishes. Use a vacuum to extract loose debris and a mild degreasing solution if needed. Any cracks or holes should be repaired using a suitable filler, as uneven or damaged substrates can lead to future delamination or imperfections in your resin layer. Allow the substrate to dry fully.

Step 2: Prime for Maximum Adhesion

Once the surface is prepped, apply a high-quality primer to enhance adhesion between the substrate and your resin system. For most substrates in liloleon, “Epoxyprimer” – Universal Water-Based Two-Component Epoxy Floor Primer is recommended due to its versatility across concrete, timber, screed, and tiles. Mix the two components according to instructions and spread evenly using a roller, brush, or spatula. Take care not to create puddles or miss any sections. Allow the primer to cure for 24–48 hours at room temperature before moving to the next stage.

Step 3: Mix and Apply the Resin System

Once the primer has cured, you are ready to mix and apply your chosen resin system. Select your binder based on the aggregate colour and desired effect: use “Trasparente” – Epoxy Binder for Coloured Pebbles and Grits for coloured or dark stone designs, or “Polirock” – Polyurethane Binder for White Stones, 2kg Two-Component Kit with white aggregates for a clear, no-yellowing finish. Mix the resin thoroughly as specified, then combine with your chosen aggregates. Ensure that all stones are uniformly coated for stability. Pour and distribute the mixture onto the primed surface, working section by section and smoothing with a trowel for an even, cohesive finish. Attention to detail at this point prevents voids and ensures a robust, attractive outcome.

Step 4: Allow for Proper Curing and Light Use

After installation, it’s vital to let the resin floor cure undisturbed. Minimum walk-on time is typically 10 hours for most binder and aggregate systems, but always allow a full cure period of up to 24 or 48 hours as provided in product instructions. During this period keep the area free from foot traffic, heavy loads, and moisture. Do not rush the curing stage; optimal performance and durability depend on this crucial final step.
