Approximate Coverage
WFT DFT Coverage 6.0 mils(0.15 mm) 3.6 mils(0.09 mm) 250 ft2/gal(6.1 m²/L)
8.0 mils(0.20 mm) 4.8 mils (0.12 mm) 200 ft2/gal(4.9 m²/L)
WFT = Wet Film Thickness
DFT = Dry Film Thickness
Coverage values are approximate and will vary based on surface condition, preparation methods and application technique.
Surface Preparation
SPARTACOTE Urethane Floor Sealer WB is intended for use as a top coat over SPARTACOTE resinous coating systems. Ensure that proper recoat windows are observed.
Mixing
SPARTACOTE Urethane Floor Sealer WB is provided in premeasured units and when mixed will yield 2 gal (7.6L) of material. Prior to mixing, mechanically mix Part A separately for 1- 2 minutes to disperse any pigments or fillers which may have settled. Mix pre-measured unit of Part A with premeasured unit of Part B for 2-3 minutes.
Application
SPARTACOTE Urethane Floor Sealer WB may be applied by applied by brush, roller or squeegee. Suggested application thickness is 6-8 mils (0.15-0.2 mm). Spread evenly over all surfaces and immediately backroll with a short nap roller to help level. To optimize inter-coat adhesion, appropriate recoat times must be observed. Exposure of the coating to direct sunlight will considerably shorten the recoat times. If recommended recoat times are exceeded, consult a LATICRETE Technical Service Representative; sanding or abrasive blasting may be required.
With all epoxies after priming and before each additional coat, examine the surface for amine blush (oily film). If present, remove by cleaning the surface with acetone.
Notes
Mock-ups and field test areas are required in order to validate performance and appearance related characteristics (including but not limited to color, inherent surface variations, wear, anti dusting, abrasion resistance, chemical resistance, stain resistance, coefficient of friction, etc.) to ensure system performance as specified for the intended use, and to determine approval of the coating system.
Variability in job site conditions (including but not limited to surface preparation, sunlight, humidity, dew point, temperature, etc.) during application of SPARTACOTE products may lead to fisheyes, blistering, pinholeswrinkling, or outgassing of air in the concrete and are not product defects. Double priming, shading or evening application may be required.
Cleaning
Clean all tools and equipment immediately after use with warm water and detergent. Acetone may be used as a final rinse.- Maintenance
The long-term performance, appearance, and life expectancy of wear surface products are critically dependent upon a good routine maintenance program designed specifically for the installed wear surface. SPARTACOTE floor coating systems are nonporous, causing dirt and contaminants to remain on the surface. The use of properly placed walk-off mats, inside and outside, will help increase the life of the floor. Recommend maintenance program consist of frequent and thorough cleaning utilizing a neutral pH cleaner. The frequency of washing will vary depending on floor usage type, traffic, and age.
