Abstract

Miracle Sand is a clear, biodegradable, zero volatile organic composition, environmentally safe spray product designed for an easier, safer and non-hazardous way of preparing, sanding and removing various flaws on freshly coated and/or previously coated wood, metal, masonry, drywall and plastic surface substrates without the mess and exposure to unsafe dust, sand particulate that can cause atmospheric health risks. Sanding sponges or sand paper are used with Miracle Sand in the flaw removal process; said process is as follows: Spray Miracle Sand liberally on the paint flawed surface. Wait less than a minute, then sand the paint flawed area with the sanding sponge or sand paper. When the flaw is removed, wipe off the remaining solution and sanding debris. Repeat entire process if surface is not smooth. Let surface dry, then coat with any finishing product.

Dependent claims

The method for removing a paint flaw after the paint has been applied to and dried on wood, metal, masonry, drywall, or plastic is as follows:

a. Position the Miracle Sand adjustable spray nozzle three to six inches away from the previously coated surface.
b. Spray Miracle Sand liberally and evenly over the entire surface to be sanded.
c. Wait thirty to sixty seconds surface setting time to allow Miracle Sand to emulsify. Surface setting time may vary depending upon the surface hardness and sheen.
d. Start preparing the surface by vigorously sanding with the sanding side of the sanding sponge until surface flaw is removed.
e. Wipe off the remaining solution, sand particulate or other contaminates with the sponge side of the sanding sponge.
f. Rinse out the sanding sponge in clear water.
g. Inspect the surface and repeat this process if necessary to achieve the desired result.
h. Wipe the surface again with the sponge side of the sanding sponge and another application of Miracle Sand to remove any left over residue, wiping it down again and allow the surface to dry thoroughly.
i. The surface has been prepared and is now ready for coating with any finishing product, i.e. paint, lacquer, etc.
