DESCRIPTION
ProThane is a uniquely versatile high- performance hybrid polyurethane top coat. ProThane is a clear two component thermosetting, low odor, 100% solids, U-V stable urethane. It has been designed to be used in areas that require maximum abrasion and wear resistance. For applications with relative humidity <40% and/or temperatures <60°F (“low range”), ProThane F-Resin is available. For applications with relative humidity >70% and/or temperatures >70°F (“high range”), ProThane HH-Resin is available. For all other applications, ProThane S-Resin should be used. For installations
requiring a low gloss finish, ProThane Satin and Satin F-Resins are available.

STORAGE
Materials should be stored indoors between 60°F (16°C) and 90°F (32°C).
SHELF LIFE
One (1) year from date of manufacture.
LIMITATIONS
This product is best suited for application in temperatures between 60°F and 90°F. Some light colors may require multiple coats for adequate hiding power. Certain colors appear white when scratched. Slight batch-to-batch color variations may occur. When ordering to match a previous color, inquire if the same batch number or quality control number is still available.

PRODUCTS GUIDE
1. ProThane S-Resin offers extended working time up to 40 minutes at 70°F, 50% RH. Rising temperatures above 70°F will measurably reduce working time. When mixed at 1 part Resin and 2 parts Hardener, it can be applied
from 3-4 mils in thickness.
2. ProThane F-Resin is designed for use when the relative humidity is below 40%, and/or the ambient temperatue is below 60°F. This resin will also provide an accelerated cure for fast- track applications when the relative humidity is above 50%, and/or the ambient temperatue is above 60ºF. When mixed at 1 part Resin and 2 parts Hardener, it can be applied from 3-4
mils in thickness.
3. ProThane HH-Resin offers optimal working times in higher temperatures and relative humidities. It’s best applied at temperatures of 70°F and rising humidities above 70%, with working times up to 40 minutes. When mixed at 1 part Resin and 2 parts Hardener, it can be applied from 3-4 mils in thickness.
4. ProThane Satin Resin is a low gloss, high performance finish coat offering similar working time to the ProThane Resin. When mixed at 1 part Resin and 1 part Hardener, it can be applied from 3-4 mils in thickness.
5. ProThane Satin F-Resin is designed for use when the relative humidity is below 50%, and/or the ambient temperature is below 60°F. This resin will also provide an accelerated cure for fast-track applications when the relative humidity is above 50%, and/or the ambient temperatue is above 60°F. When mixed at 1 part Resin and 1 part Hardener, it can be
applied from 3-4 mils in thickness.
PRELIMINARY FLOOR INSPECTIONS
temperature during application and curing. Floor temperature and materials should be between 65°F (18°C) and 90°F (32°C). Humidity must be less than 90%. DO NOT coat unless floor temperature is more than five degrees over the dew point.
COVERAGE RATE
A gallon of ProThane will cover in the following manner, with a standard spread rate for a finish topcoat at 3-4 mils or 401-534
s.f. per gallon. *Application of body/grout and topcoats are variable in thickness depending upon condition of substrate and type of system.
RECOAT REQUIREMENTS
In the event of a recoat application beyond 36 hours, the existing topcoat should be lightly ground using 100-grit diamonds, vacuuming, and tack-wiping before re-application. Please call ProREZ technical support for further instructions.
MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
Application Equipment:
- Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) & clothing per SDS (Safety Data Sheet)
- Jiffy® Mixer Blade (ES Model)
- Clean Mixing Container
- Low Speed /High Torque Power Drill
- Shed-Resistant Roller Cover - 1/4" Roller Nap
- Wide-Boy Bucket for “Dip ‘n’ Roll”ProREZ Coatings, LLCP.O. Box 153, Cromwell, CT 06416-0153877.511.3456 www.prorezcoatings.comProTHANE
field pigmenting, it should be added and mixed in homogenously to the resin prior to adding the hardener. When combining, be sure to add the resin (clear or pigmented) into the clean mixing container first. Then add the hardener scraping out the container. Always pour into the center of the mixing container. Mix the components thoroughly for 1-2 minutes with a Jiffler ES style mix blade. Mix only enough material at one time that can be applied without exceeding the pot life.
- ProWear additive is available for enhanced abrasion and wear resistance in the ProThane finish coat. NOT to be used in WET areas. One (1) quart can per 1.5 gallon mix.
- ProGrip additive can be included for enhanced non-slip resistance. 4-6 ozv. per gallon of liquid.
CLEANING GUIDELINES & MAINTENANCE
Allow floor coating to cure at least 3 days before cleaning by mechanical means (e.g., sweeper, scrubber, disc machine).
CARE
Proper maintenance will increase the service life and help maintain the appearance of your new ProREZ floor coating system. This product is considered to be a low maintenance coating system, however, certain textures and service environments require specific procedures. SEE “CLEANING GUIDELINES” for more information.
CAUTION
Avoid scratching or gouging the surface. All floor coatings will scratch if heavy or sharp objects are dragged across the surface.
Do not drop heavy or pointed items on the floor as this may cause chipping or concrete pop-outs in the case of a weak substrate cap.
Rubber tires can permanently stain the floor coating from plasticizer migration. In warehouse & industrial settings, the use of non-marking tires is highly recommended to prevent discoloration. Rubber burns from quick stops and starts can heat the coating to its softening temperature, causing permanent marking.
REPAIRS
Repair gouges or scratches or chip outs as soon as possible to prevent moisture or chemical contamination.
