A:  Happy to help, Natalie! The Rust-Oleum Home Floor Topcoat is intended for use over the Rust-Oleum Home Base Coat only. We do not recommend it for use over other paints. Instead, Rust-Oleum Varathane Water-Based Polyurethane for Floors can be used over painted wood floors, provided that the paint on the surface is a floor-grade coating. If the paint on the surface is in poor condition or not floor-grade, then it would need to be removed prior to applying any floor finish to ensure lasting results. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Varathane-1-Gal-Clear-Matte-Water-Based-Interior-Polyurethane-2-Pack-286820/205926960 - Rust-Oleum Product Support 3

A:  Great question, Meredith! Typically, only one coat of the Rust-Oleum Home Base Coating is needed. If applying over a porous surface, like bare wood, or if using the Pure White Base Coat, then two coats are recommended. - Rust-Oleum Product Support 3

A:  Great question! Yes, a mop can be used to help clean the surface after applying the Rust-Oleum Home Floor Coating System. You will want to allow the coating to cure for at least 7 days before washing/mopping the surface. - Rust-Oleum Product Support 3

A:  Thanks for reaching out. Rust-Oleum Home Floor Coating can be applied to a variety of surfaces, including ceramic tile, porcelain tile, concrete, hard wood, laminate, vinyl, and linoleum. Because Osmo Polyx-Oil is derived from natural oils and wax, it would need to be removed before Rust-Oleum Home can be applied. - Rust-Oleum Product Support 6

A:  Happy to help, Andrea! The Rust-Oleum Home Floor Coating System can be applied to interior wood floors that were previously painted. For lasting results, the paint on the floor must be in good, sound condition and also suitable for use on floors. - Rust-Oleum Product Support 3

A:  Happy to help, Norma! Since the Rust-Oleum Home Floor Topcoat is not fully dry, sanding is not recommended for removal. The coating can be scraped or a stripper suitable for water-based coatings can be used to help with removal. With any method, a test application is recommended to ensure favorable results. - Rust-Oleum Product Support 3

A:  We appreciate your interest, Anna! We do not recommend the Rust-Oleum Home Floor Coating System for use on marble, as it will likely not fully adhere. At this time, we do not offer a suitable primer or paint for marble floors. - Rust-Oleum Product Support 3
