COVERAGE RATES
Rough or Broom Finished Concrete: 250-300 square feet per gallon
Smooth, Stamped, or Troweled Concrete: 300-400 square feet per gallon
*Coverage rates listed above are rates that you should attempt to achieve, not what you necessarily will achieve. Also, when applying a second coat or if the concrete has been sealed previously, coverage rates may be extended slightly.
DESCRIPTION
Epo-Crete WB Satin is a breathable non-yellowing Water Based Epoxy-Acrylic sealer designed for interior concrete sealing applications such as stamped, stenciled, cementitious overlays, acid stained and brushed or trowel finished concrete surfaces. Epo-Crete WB Satin is for use on horizontal and vertical.
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS:
SURFACE PREPARTAION: Concrete surface must be clean and free of all contaminants and water. Do not apply if moisture could be present within 24 hours. If moisture is present or if the surface is not clean and free of all contaminants, the sealer may have white spots and have premature delamination and failure.
Substrate temperature must be no less than 50 degrees F and not exceed 85 degrees F. If applied outside 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. Material may separate during long term storage.
APPLICATION: Apply using a 3/8" - 1/2" nap roller cover using long even uniform strokes at approximately 250-400 square feet per gallon depending on porosity and texture of substrate. A hand held pump up style sprayer may be used as well (back rolling may be necessary when spraying). Do not allow to Puddle! Thick or puddle areas may prevent the water from evaporating and may be susceptible to moisture intrusion which may cause milky white spots. Applying too thin may cause sealer to prematurely delaminate, flake or wear away. Allow sealer to dry for 24 hours for light traffic and at least 48 hours for heavy traffic. If applying two coats, wait approximately 4 - 6 hours between coats.
A two coat application is recommended for concrete surfaces that have previously been unsealed. In rare occasions, a third coat may be necessary to provide a uniform finish to porous or uneven surfaces. For previously sealed concrete surfaces, it is recommended to sand or scuff the surface to ensure proper adhesion and a single coat should be sufficient in most cases.
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, texture etc. If applying by spray method, extended coverage rates may be achieved, but be aware that less material will be applied and inadequate film formation or performance expectations may be limited.
