- Use
ICT 7:1 Ure-Seal H2O is a 2-part environmentally friendly, water reduci-ble crystal clear urethane. It is a high performance clear coating that can be used inside or out to protect and enhance any properly prepared brick paver and concrete surface for years of service.
- Surface Preparation
- Clean surface thoroughly with ICT Total Klean (700) all purpose degreaser and cleaner to remove dirt and oils. It is recommended that you also use a bleach/liquid chlorine solution to remove any visible or microscopic algae or mildew. Rinse thoroughly.
- If you are applying 7:1 Ure-Seal H2O over brick pavers it is recommended that you use ICT Total Prep (720) according to product directions. This will aid in the removal of efflorescence and condition / prep the pavers.
- Pressure wash the entire area thoroughly to remove any residual chemicals.
Mixing Ratio’s
ICT 7:1 Ure-Seal H2O is a 2 component product that comes pre-packaged in 5 Gallon kits. If not all the product in the kit is needed 7:1 Ure-Seal H2O can be mixed by using 7 parts of “Part A” and 1 part of “Part B” (i.e.: 7 quarts of Part A to 1 quart of Part B) Do not mix more material than can be used in a 1-3 hour period. Once components A and B are mixed the pot life is ap-proximately 1 to 3 hours. Pot life will vary based on weather conditions, tem-perature, humidity etc. Mixed product should NEVER be stored in a closed container.
Dilution Ratio’s
Brick Pavers with sand joints: It is recommended you apply a penetration coat as your first coat. Mix Part A and Part B at the 7:1 ratio. Dilute that solution up to 1:1. (i.e.: if you have mixed a total of one gallon of product add 1 gallon of water). The second coat should be used the same as the first coat. For a higher gloss or longer durability you can apply the second coat up to full strength. Acrylic Overlays (ICT TK2000 w/ Integral Color), Stamp Overlays: Mix Part A and Part B at the 7:1 ratio. Dilute that solution with up to 1 part water. (i,e:1 gal of mixed product diluted with up to 1 gal of water). The second coat should be applied full strength. No dilution. Additional coats may be applied to achieve a higher gloss or if additional film thickness is needed for High Traffic areas. Top Coat Sealers (ICT Color Seal H2O Pro, Texture EEZ 3000) should be sealed with 7:1 Ure-Seal H2O full strength.
- Application
ICT 7:1 Ure-SealH2O is a two component product. Mix using a low speed drill or jiffy mixer for 1-2 minutes. If dilution is recommended, mix parts A & B before and after water is added. Do not whip air into the mixture. Apply with a pump sprayer , airless, continuous type sprayer, or short nap roller, (rolling is only recommended for indoor applications). Do not apply too thick or bubbles will form. If a second coat is required, it must be applied after the initial coat is dry to touch and visually clear, usually within 3-6 hours, but be-fore it cures completely, usually within 24-36, hours after the initial coat is applied.
Brick Pavers or Hot Surfaces should be slightly dampened with a light mist of water prior to applying 7:1 Ure-Seal H2O. Do Not Over Hydrate. Hydrate surface only if conditions allow for adequate dry/curing time. Thin pavers with a sand bed should be thoroughly dry before applying 7:1 Ure-Seal H2O. The use of a quality pump up sprayer/continuous sprayer is recommended. Always filter product before filling. A moderate amount of material should be applied. Do not allow 7:1 Ure-Seal H2O to puddle. If puddling occurs use a dry roller to “back roll” the material, a leaf blower, or a stiff push broom to maintain an even thickness. If you use a roller for the application of 7:1 Ure-Seal H2O use a 1/4” nap or Micro Fiber roller cover. For dry rolling/ back rolling you will need a 3/4-1” roller cover. If you should see roller marks as you are applying, lightly mist those areas with water. This will allow the sealer to settle and form a more even film. Roller application is never recommended on brick pavers.
Note: Coated surfaces may become slippery when wet. ICT Diamond Dust (491) or ICT Broadcast Blend (495) while ICT 7:1 Ure-Seal is curing to reduce slipperiness.
- DO NOT apply 7:1 Ure-Seal H2O when air or surface temperature is below 55°F or is expected to fall to the point before application is dry. Low temperatures and high humidity will effect drying and curing times.
- DO NOT apply 7:1 Ure-Seal H2O to new cement, mortar, grout, brick pavers, or overlays. ICT recommends a minimum wait/cure time of 28 days before sealing. When sealing brick pavers, refer to manufacturer’s wait/cure time recommendation before sealing. ICT Total Prep (720) should be used for the aid in removal of efflorescence prior to application of 7:1 Ure-Seal H2O.
- DO NOT apply to thin pavers if moisture is present.
Clean Up
7:1 Ure-Seal cleans up easily with ICT Total Wash (760). Follow instructions on back label when using Total Wash (760). Sodium Bicarbinate and water is also usefull in removing 7:1 Ure-Seal residue from equipment immediately after application. Mix sodium bicarbinate and water at a ratio of 1 pound of sodium bicarbinate to 1 gallon of water and flush equipment thoroughly. Soap and water may also be used immediately after use.
Coverage :Approx-200 –300 sq. ft. per gallon.
- Limitations
Must be stored in air tight container to prevent evaporation and contamination with foreign material. Do not apply when surface and air temperatures are above 100o F or below 55°F or when dew point is within 5°F of air temperature. Any mixed material if not used within 1-3 hours of mixing should be discarded, this time may be increased by keeping the material in a cool dry place. Do not re-lid product once mixed as product will expand. Do not freeze, store above 40°F. If re-coat time is exceeded surface must be lightly abraded prior to applying second coat.
