Applications & Uses
- Markets
- Applications
- Application Method
- Compatible Substrates & Surfaces
- Coverage
Varies upon substrate: approximately 180 - 200 ft² per gal., per coat 8 - 8.9 mils wet; 1.6 - 1.8 mils cured.
- Suitability Sample
- Due to condition-specific sites, always prepare an adequate number of test areas.
- Wear protection system and esthetic suitability for products’ intended use should be included.
- On site sample approval is especially critical on substantial, heavy traffic situation or custom coloration.
- Clean Up
Before it dries; spills and tools can be cleaned up with a solvent such as xylene or acetone.
- Limitations
- Product performs best upon a concrete slab that has no ponding of standing water.
- When masking use caution while taping to a floor that is not completely cured, especially at edges, as delamination may occur.
- Protect from metal wheel traffic and some furniture where point of contact may be damaging.
- Chemicals used in tire manufacturing may be detrimental to all sealers from vehicular parking.

Regulatory & Compliance
- Slip Resistance
- Two recognized US agencies have issued directives on minimum coefficient of friction, OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) and Department of Justice through the ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act).
- ADA is the more stringent of the two.
- ADA directs that accessible walkways have a minimum coefficient of friction of 0.6.
- Ramps have been directed to be 0.8. The applicator assumes the responsibility to meet these standards.
- Areas that may become wet, oily, or greasy require special attention.
