Application of Waterbased ELITE-SHIELD – ELITE-GUARD – ELITE-SEAL
- Protect any adjacent areas by masking to avoid splashes or overspray onto surfaces not intended to be treated.
- Surface to be treated should be clean but can be damp.
- Apply sealer liberally by spray, lambswool applicator, roller or brush.
- Leave for 5-20 minutes then reapply a second coat whilst still wet.
- Wipe off excess sealer on top with a clean cloth after 5mins.
- Allow to dry, water repellency will be evident immediately the surface appears dry, full curing will take 24 hours.
- The temperature of the Tile, Paver or Concrete should be between 12c in sunlight – 29 Degrees Celsius.
- Wash equipment in water as soon as finished.
In all applications wiping off any excess sealer on top of the surface is required.
Application of Solvent ENHANCER SS & SOLVE-SEAL
- Protect any adjacent areas by masking to avoid splashes or overspray onto surfaces not intended to be treated.
- The surface must be clean and dry.
- Apply a liberal coating of Sealer using a brush, roller or low-pressure spray.
- Give the whole surface a “Wet” look to ensure sufficient product is applied.
- Leave the coating to penetrate the surface for 5-10mins, dependant on drying conditions.
- *Wipe off any excess with a clean cloth after applying the first and second coat.
- The second coat of Sealer can be applied when the 1st coat is dried.
- Tiles will take Approx 24-48 hours to fully cure dependant on weather.
- The temperature of the Tile, Paver or Concrete should be between 12c in sunlight – 29 Degrees Celsius.
- Clean tools with turps straight after applying.
In all applications wiping off any excess sealer on top of the surface is required.
Application of CONCRETE SEALER
- Apply to a dry or slightly damp area, dust-free concrete surfaces only, caution On new concrete, best to allow 21 days curing prior to sealing.
- Acid wash area in particular smooth concrete surfaces for better adhesion.
- Two coats recommended for optimum effect.
- Can be low pressure sprayed, brushed or applied by good quality roller.
- The application must not be too thick as excessive build-up may cause the Coating to appear milky.
- The temperature of Concrete or area should be between 10 – 29 Degrees Celsius.
- Allow 24-48 hours to cure.
- Do not apply when the temperature of the concrete is below 12ºC in sunlight.
- Do not apply if rain is imminent.
- Pedestrian traffic allowed after 24 hours.
- Allow 5-7 days before vehicular traffic access.
- Clean up equipment with water immediately after use.
- Allow full cure of Concrete sealer before performing any cutting. 5-7 days minimum.
- Clean tools with water before material dries.
Two thin coats will last longer than thick coats.
Application Gel Stripper
- Note: – Shake well before use.
- The surface temperature to be stripped should be between 12c in sunlight -29 Degrees Celsius.
- Apply the stripper evenly to a 2mm thickness using a squeegee, brush, or roller. The timeframe for removal of the coating depends on the type of sealer or coating on the surface and the number of layers to be removed.
- For multiple layers apply a slightly thicker application (approx. 3mm thick).
- Check the effectiveness of the stripper at 10-minute intervals using a scraper. For epoxy coatings, allow the stripper to sit on the surface for at least 12 hours before removing.
- Paint and Acrylic sealers for a period of 30mins-180mins dependant on the number of coats required to be removed.
- To remove the stripper and sealer/coating residue, scrape the surface using a short or long-handled scraper.
- For textured surfaces such as exposed aggregate, an extremely hard brush can be used. Black nylon stripping pads and an automatic floor scrubber can be used on smoother surfaces.
- Scrub the surface with Elite Degreaser to remove all remaining stripper and high-pressure water blast the area (external areas only) or rinse with clean water.
- Surfaces may appear cloudy (grey/white appearance) when they eventually dry after stripping. This does not indicate any damage and the surface colours will return after re-sealing.
- To ensure the sealer/coating has been totally removed from the surface, walk on the treated area looking for signs of tackiness and sealer residue.
- Reapply Eco Stripper to these areas where the sealer/coating has not been totally removed
Application Anti-Graffiti coating – Repel
- Apply to a dry or slightly damp area, dust-free surfaces only, caution On new concrete, best to allow 21 days curing prior to sealing.
- Acid wash area in particular smooth concrete surfaces for better adhesion.
- Two coats recommended for optimum effect.
- Can be low pressure sprayed, brushed or applied by good quality roller.
- The application must not be too thick as excessive build-up may cause the Coating to appear milky.
- The surface temperature should be above 12c in sunlight – 29 Degrees Celsius.
- Allow 48-86 hours to fully cure.
- Do not apply when the temperature of the surface to be coated is below 12ºC in sunlight.
- Do not apply if rain is imminent.
- Clean up equipment with water immediately after use.
