PRECAUTIONS AND LIMITATIONS
SURFACE PREPARATION: Concrete surface must be clean, dry, and free of any surface contaminants. If applying to a previous-
ly sealed surface, verify that the old sealer is a compatible, water based acrylic sealer and ensure the surface has been screen sand-
ed to allow for new sealer to bond. Do not apply if it is expected to rain within 24 hours of applying sealer. When applying to
freshly placed concrete, concrete must be finished and show no sheen from bleed water.
Substrate temperature must be no less than 45 degrees F and not exceed 85 degrees F. If applied outside of these limits, the sealer
may not achieve adequate film formation and may have excessive air entrapment, bubbles, blushing or hazing.
MIXING: Stir well before using. (slow drill mixing or by hand).
APPLICATION: Apply using a 3/8” – 1/2” nap roller, or a low pressure pump sprayer, apply a thin, even coat. Do not puddle. If
puddles do occur, immediately roll out. Wait 4-6 hours, or until the first coat is no longer tacky, then repeat with a second coat.
PLEASE NOTE: It is always recommended to test the product in a small, inconspicuous area (on the same concrete substrate) for
desired results prior to application. Coverage rates may vary for all coatings and substrates depending on porosity, density, and tex-
ture.
Use warm water and soap. Dispose of containers in accordance with local and federal regulations.
Dried, cured sealer may be removed with a commercial paint stripper, or by using a diamond grinding method, sandblasting method or similar
mechanical action.
 If applying indoors, room should be properly ventilated to allow for solvents to evaporate.
 Do not apply over floor adhesives, paints, water based coatings, or incompatible sealers.
 Coverage rates depend upon many conditions including application method, surface porosity, and applicator.
 Please be aware that this product when cured may be slippery when wet.
 Sealer is not resistant to brake fluid, gasoline, and many other similar products.
 It is not recommended to dilute sealer with any products.
 Sealer will darken the surface in order to enhance dull or faded surfaces.
 White spots (blushing) and premature delamination or failure may occur if applied to wet surfaces, surfaces with moisture issues, or surfac-
es that get wet before the sealer has fully cured.
 If applying sealer to pavers less than one year old, verify with paver manufacturer that pavers are able to be sealed.
 Do not apply in early morning if morning dew is present.
 Store product in an area where the temperature is between 50-80 degrees F, and not in direct sunlight.
