Features & Benefits
- Ready-to-Use Product Features
- Features
- It is specially formulated for extreme climates.
- The unique silane formulation creates the nano-sealer technology that deeply penetrates and reacts internally with cement, slowing moisture migration and efflorescence and intensifying bond capacity.
- Even in warmer climates it is slower evaporating solvents will not “cotton candy” before the applicator can finish a tight, smooth surface.
- A single coat application will provide a UV shield, enhance the beauty, and protect the surface of driveways, garage floors, patios, walkways, pool decks, and stucco.

- Compatible Substrates & Surfaces
- Coverage
Varies upon substrate: approximately 200 - 240 ft² per gal., per coat (18.6 - 22.3 m² per 3.8 L, per coat) 6.7 - 8 mils wet; 1.3 - 1.6 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.
