The top again was treated with E-Z Stone primerand the 3-step decorative coating. The landings are exposed to the outdoor conditions prevailing in Tucson Arizona with the known high temperatures in the summer, followed by sudden rains. Please advise me if you agree with the use of your product for his application being subject to foot traffic. I am on the board of directors and am looking after this project to assure that quality materials are used for the intended use. Please reply before February 24, we completed one test unit but are hesitating to commit more landings to this method of repairs.
