BENEFITS
- Easy Installation: Diamond grind, only ICRI CSP 1 surface prep required. To create cost-effective alternative to Polish, Densify and Seal systems. Grind and polish up to 100-grit diamond level.
- Fast Set: No mixing. 1st coat usually penetrates and seals the concrete allowing the second coat to leave a low gloss, hard-wearing surface. Coating cures for recoat in 30 minutes or less.
- VOC: VOC exempt.
- Low Cost Dust-Proof Sealer: Excellent, high abrasion resistant alternative to regular sealing systems.u Impermeable and Stain Resistant: Outperforms regular sealer systems for stain resistance.
SURFACE PREPARATION
Evaluate concrete slab for contaminants. The concrete must be structurally sound and meet industry standards as defined in ACI Committee 201 Report “Guide to Durable Concrete.” Surfaces to be protected with ProSEAL SB must be free of moisture-sensitive patching and leveling materials, adhesives, coatings, curing compounds, concrete sealers, efflorescence, dust, grease, oils and any other materials or contaminants that can act as bond breakers.
EXAMINING CONCRETE SUBSTRATES
It is recommended to take core samples of older concrete slabs. The cores should be analyzed by a qualified analytical laboratory for compounds that may cause floor failures such as soluble salts, ASR (Alkali Silica Reaction), unreacted water-soluble silicates, organic substances etc. Water soluble silicates are found in some curing compounds, floor hardeners, and some manufacturers’ vapor reduction products.
MIXING AND APPLICATION
Locate a suitable mix area that will allow easy access to the installation area. Protect the concrete surface from spillage with a layer
of cardboard and/or sheet of plastic. Allow sufficient amount of work space area to work, prepare all necessary tools and materials. This material is a single component. It is not necessary to mix and used immediately. Pot Life is unlimited.
1. A 5-gallon airless sprayer system is necessary, however a hand pump sprayer may be used in combination with a nap roller
2. Place the 5 gallons of material under the 5-gallon airless sprayer.
3. Apply ProSEAL SB system on substrate at temperatures between 50°F-90°F. Do not apply ProSEAL SB to concrete less than 7 days old. Provide ventilation during application and curing.
4. Position the spray tip approximately 8"-10" (200-300 mm) from the concrete surface, using an overlapping spray pattern. Apply at a rate of 200-250 sq ft per gallon. Install in two passes, applying the second pass immediately after the first has penetrated the surface. DO NOT PUDDLE.
5. Examine the work as you proceed to assure complete, uniform coverage with no missed or bald areas.
6. Allow ProSEAL SB to cure.
7. Apply second coat as aforementioned.
8. System will dry for foot traffic as early as 15minutes. Allow 30 minutes for complete dry before next step.
COVERAGE
Typical coverage rates for ProSEAL SB are 250 sq ft per gal for 1st application and 250-300 sq ft for 2nd application. Concrete porosity will determine if a 3rd coat is required.
