Classic Coatings Systems Classic Gator Grip

Gator Grip is a finely ground polymer material for addition to concrete sealers to provide slip resistance and fine texturing. It can be added into most film-forming water based and solvent based sealers. Gator Grip provides improved chemical and abrasion resistance. It is more comfortable to bare feet on treated surfaces than sand or aggregate additives.

Identification & Functionality

Coverage

Gator Grip is designed to be incorporated into a suitable concrete sealer. Minimum addition ratios are 2.4 oz. per gallon and 12 oz. per 5 gallons. Additional Gator Grip can be added, depending on the desired texturing effect. Do not exceed 3 0z. per gallon.

Features & Benefits

Features

The  products  low  density  and  insolubility  characteristics will  help  reduce  settling  and  provide  optimum  performance  in  its  various  applications,  all  without  changing  the viscosity.  When  a  slip-resistant  surface  is  desired,  Gator  Grip  puts  “bite”  on  concrete  surfaces  and  is  ideal  around properly  prepared  areas  where  water  or  moisture  can  accumulate.  This  includes  walkways,  driveways,  garage  floors, patios, pool decks and other surfaces.

Applications & Uses

Application Method
Applications

Stir,  while  slowly  adding  Gator  Grip  to  the  container  of  sealer.  The  product  may  float  at  first,  but  once it  has  wet  out,  it  will  mix  in  easily.  In  thinner  products,  occasional  stirring  during  application  may  be  required  to  keep the  particles  well  suspended  within  the  coating.  It  is  recommended  that  when  mixing  Gator  Grip  into  unfamiliar sealers,  that  a  small  test  batch  is  mixed,  followed  by  a  small  test  application.  Apply  your  first  layer  of  sealer  with  a sprayer  without  Gator  Grip  added.  For  the  second  layer,  mix  Gator  Grip  into  sealer  for  5  to  10  minutes  then  apply  with a  roller.  Do  not  re-roll  wet  areas.  *Though  a  sprayer  can  be  used,    be  aware  that  some  low-pressure  pump-up  sprayers may not be able to dispense sealers with  Gator  Grip.

Safety & Health

Safety

  KEEP  OUT  OF  REACH  OF  CHILDREN.  Gator  Grip  is  not  hazardous  and  does  not  contain  silica,  but  should be  treated  as  a  nuisance dust  while  incorporating  it  into  its  intended  vehicle.  Use with  adequate  ventilation.  Use appropriate,  properly  fitted  respirator  protection  filter  apparatus  and  avoid  breathing  dust  and  particles. If  dizziness, headache  or  eye  watering  occurs,  get  to  fresh  air;  leave  area  immediately.  In  case  of  eye  contact,  flush  with  large amounts  of  water  for  at least  15  minutes.  Seek  medical  attention  if  irritation  persists.  Do  not  take  internally.  If swallowed,  seek  medical  attention  immediately.  Keep  out  of  reach  of  children.  Close  container  after  each use.  Use protective  clothing  to  avoid  contact  with  skin  and  eyes.  Refer  to  Material  Safety  Data  Sheet  for  complete  health and  safety  information. USE ONLY WITH ADEQUATE VENTILATION.
