Applications & Uses

Compatible Substrates & Surfaces
Substrate Requirements
  • Substrate temperature must be a minimum of 50°F and relative humidity below 85% for proper curing.
  • The substrate must be free of dirt, waxes, curing agents and other foreign materials.
  • Cure times will be extended in conditions of high humidity and poor ventilation.
Applications
  • Surface Preparation is the most critical portion of any successful resinous flooring system application.
  • All substrates must be properly prepared as outlined in Düraamen’s technical Bulletin #1.
  • Work must be performed by trained or experienced contractors or maintenance personnel.
Installation
  • Mix each component of Perdure U45 prior to combining together.
  • Mix 4 Parts A with 1 Part B.
  • Mix only that amount of material that can be used in 60 minutes.
  • In hot weather conditions, plan on working during the cooler times of the day.
  • Always try to keep a wet edge during application.
Clean Up
  • Clean skin with soap and water.
  • Tools and equipment should be cleaned with Xylene or Lacquer Thinner.
Coverage
  • Perdure U45 covers 300 - 350 sq. ft. per gallon at 2 - 3 mils film thickness.
  • Thicker applications may result in bubbles in the cured film.
  • Recoat time is approximately 8 - 10 hours at 75°F.
  • Application of at least two coats is recommended in high traffic areas like restaurants, retail shops, schools, etc.
Maintenance
  • After completing the installation, the applicator should provide the owner with maintenance instructions.
  • If floors become slippery due to animal fats, oil, grease, or soap film, clean and rinse thoroughly.
  • Perdure U45 is easily cleaned with neutral soaps or detergents.
  • Routine mechanical scrubbing is recommended for all surfaces having a non-skid texture.
  • Treating the surface with a floor finish (Smärtgard) is optional.
  • Long periods of heavy traffic may cause wear patterns necessitating the application of a finish coat.
  • Do not leave any type of tape on the sealer for more than 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Test first in an inconspicuous area for compatibility between the tape and the sealer.
