1. Clean interior surface.

2. Stain with Lifeline Interior.

3. Apply a topcoat of Acrylic Gloss or Satin. 
Note: Using these interior finishes will make it easier to clean interior walls and keep them from absorbing cooking orders.  If the homeowner does not want a color on their interior walls, they can use Prelude, which is clear and contains UV Boost, for the first coat and then top with Acrylic Gloss or Satin.

4. Chink interior if applicable with Perma-Chink.  Acrylic Gloss or Satin can be applied on top of Perma-Chink to help keep it clean.

5. Apply Sure Shine Gloss or Satin to interior floors.
