Material Requirements
A two-coat application using a coverage rate of 200 ft²/gal will require approximately 5 gals of material per 1000 ft² of area. Two coats are recommended for best results. The concrete surface texture greatly affects coverage rates and final appearance. Additionally, introducing silica sand for slip resistance will reduce coverage rates. Do not apply at less than 150 ft²/gal. Apply a second coat if a thicker film is desired. Allow the first coat to dry tack-free (but wait no more than 24 hours) before the second coat is applied.
- Directions For Use
Surface Preparation
New concrete must be a minimum of 28 days old and possess an open surface texture with all curing compounds and sealers removed. The concrete must be clean and sound. All oil, dirt, debris, paint and unsound concrete must be removed. Pressure washing and/or power scrubbing are recommended. The concrete surface can be damp or dry at the time of application of EUCO #512 VOX EPOXY SEALER. However, the best results are obtained when the concrete is damp with all puddles removed.
Mixing
All materials should be in the proper temperature range of 60°F to 90°F. Pre-mix Part A and add the entire container of Part B to all the Part A. Mix for 2 to 3 minutes using a mechanical (drill) mixer. The epoxy must be well mixed to ensure proper chemical reaction. After mixing, place immediately.
Placement
To apply the sealer to the concrete, use a pump-up or airless sprayer for best results. A short nap roller or lambswool applicator may also be used.
- Clean Up
Clean tools and equipment with warm, soapy water before the material dries.
