Application Instructions
Ensure that all surfaces are clean, dry, and free from contaminants before applying Guard-Coat. For concrete surfaces, roughen the surface using mechanical or chemical means to provide a better key for the coating. On smoother surfaces, such as power-floated concrete, it is recommended to use a high-performance primer before applying Guard-Coat. This product can be applied using a brush or roller, and for best results, mix the components thoroughly before use. The product should be diluted with up to 500 ml of clean water per 5 kg pack, and applied in temperatures above 10°C. Allow a minimum of 16 hours between coats.
Usage Restrictions
Guard-Coat should not be applied in temperatures below 10°C or in high humidity, as this can affect curing and performance. It is also essential that the product is applied to properly prepared surfaces; avoid using it on surfaces that have not been sufficiently roughened or primed, as this may lead to poor adhesion. Guard-Coat is designed for use in areas requiring stringent hygiene control, and it is not recommended for surfaces that will be exposed to direct chemical spills without the use of a suitable topcoat. Always refer to the downloadable data sheet for more specific guidance on surface preparation and usage restrictions.
