PRECAUTIONS AND LIMITATIONS
SURFACE PREPARATION: Surface preparation is key to the success and life of the UTN60. UTN60 must be applied to fully cured concrete that has been properly prepped with a diamond grinder to a 25-
80 grit finish. Surface needs to be completely dry and free of oil, dirt, grime, wax, detergent or any incompatible paint or coating.
If applying the Armor UTN60 as a top coat over the Armor Epoxy Primer, UTN60 must be applied within the recoat window of the Armor Epoxy. If applying the UTN60 to an existing coating, it is im-
portant to first speak with a Foundation Armor Technician regarding compatibility and required surface preparation and application.
PRODUCT MIXING:
CLEAR: Slow drill mix 2 Parts A with 1 Part B in a clean 5 gallon pail. Mix for 60-90 seconds, or until material is thoroughly blended and homogenous. Avoid whipping air into the coating. Improper
mixing can result in coating failure.
COLOR: Before adding in Part B, slow drill mix color into pre-mixed Part A for roughly 30 seconds. 4.5-6 oz. of color should be added to each gallon of material. For example, if you are mixing a 3 gallon
UTN60 kit, you would mix in a total of 13.5-18 oz of color. Once the color has been mixed into Part A, add in Part B and slow drill mix for 60-90 seconds, or until material is thoroughly blended and ho-
mogenous
NON SLIP: Armor Non-Slip additive should only be added into the top coat, not the base coat. The non-slip additive will be added into the fully blended UTN60 before applying to concrete surface. It is
important to continuously mix during application, otherwise the non-slip additive will settle to the bottom of the pail. Mix approximately 2-6 oz. of non slip additive per gallon of mixed material. For exam-
ple, if you are mixing a 3 gallon UTN60 kit ,you would mix in a total of 6 oz of Non-Slip Additive. More can be added, but if too much is added the surface may have a visible, peppered look.
PRODUCT APPLICATION: Apply the mixed material using a 3/8”- 1/2” shedless nap roller. It is important to apply within estimated pot life and recommended temperature guidelines. Please note that
pot life may vary. If the material becomes thick while applying, or starts sticking to the roller , stop applying and discard the mixed material. At this point it has reached the end of the usable pot life. While
applying keep a wet edge to prevent roller marks. It is recommended to work in sections usually using control joints as dividers to ensure proper application results. Do not allow to Puddle! If recoating after
24 hours you must wait 5-7 days to allow the coating to cure. Once 5-7 days has passed, a light sanding using an 80 grit screen pad is required prior to applying an additional coat to ensure adequate coat
adhesion.
Blending roller lines: When rolling the UTN60 it is considered a best practice to lift the roller at the end of the stroke so there are no roller lines/stop lines. Applying the UTN60 is very similar to applying
paint, be sure to always maintain a wet edge. Work fast, but controlled, you only have about 25-30 minutes of working time before the pot life is reached.
PLEASE NOTE:
When applying the UTN60 in a color, you will likely see small areas of concrete through the first coat of material. Applying a second color coat will help to achieve a consistent opaque surface finish.
The UTN60 should be applied in thin, even coats. Do not attempt to apply large amounts of material in an attempt to fill in concrete cracks, holes, divots, or surface imperfections.
Applying UTN60 outside of the suggested parameters may result in job failure. 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, texture etc.
Use MEK. 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.
 Concrete must be cured for at least 28 days.
 Coverage rates depend upon many conditions including application method, surface porosity, and applicator.
 Armor UTN60 should be applied in thin coats, it is not designed as a high build coating. Do not puddle.
 Be aware that this product may be slippery when wet. Non-Slip additives are available.
 Armor UTN60 may darken the surface of many new and existing concrete substrates. Test prior to use.
 Physical properties listed on this technical data sheet are typical values, not specifications.
 Do not let sweat or other liquids come into contact with the uncured coating.
•• If applying over an existing coating, proper adhesion and compatibility tests are essential. In this application the substrate
preparation, application, performance and all other liabilities are strictly the end users responsibility. Foundation Armor also offers
no guaranty, warranty or other claims to the success or results of a job or project.
