Actual coverage may vary due to absorption of substrate and substrate profile. Failure to achieve the <br />required mil thickness will compromise the effectiveness of the product and void the warranty. It is the applicator’s responsibility to verify that the required mil thickness <br />has been attained. Mils are based on WFT (wet film thickness).
