EpiMax 900 Solvent Based Clear PU Sealer is a hard, stain resistant, non-yellowing, cross-linking protective sealer for concrete floor surfaces which offers excellent adhesion and finish retention. This product enhances both the appearance and the stain resistance of industrial, commercial and residential concrete slabs. The product is formulated using single pack polyurethane chemistry and no mixing is required. It is generally applied by roller but can also be professionally sprayed. EpiMax 900 is especially suited for application to both ground and polished concrete floor surfaces. Polished concrete flooring has become an integral and accepted architectural trend for commercial and residential projects. The term is used to describe a variety of decorative concrete flooring options which leave a concrete surface exposed as the final floor finish. Selected aggregates are chosen to provide an attractive polished stone appearance. Aggregate colours and types are selected and blended to produce a variety of unique slab finishes. Polished concrete combines the physical of concrete and the beauty of polished stone. However, if unprotected, these floors are easily damaged by general contamination because even everyday chemical compounds can harm the floor structure. More aggressive chemicals cause faster damage. Once a polished concrete floor starts to deteriorate, it can lose lustre and primary function and then dusting and cleaning difficulties begin. Concrete professionally protected with EpiMax 900 demonstrate increased chemical resistance and stain resistance. Importantly, these slabs will not dust since the slab surface is tightly bound and secure. These protected floors are non-porous, monolithic, chemically inert and hygienic. They are far easier to clean and maintain. EpiMax 900 is also selected when a deeper, richer colour is required in the slab. The particular appeal will be influenced by the aggregate colours chosen in theWater-Based Two-Part Epoxy concrete mix design. EpiMax 900 is suitable for external application to appropriately prepared surfaces. EpiMax 900 is available in Gloss and Satin finishes. If selecting Satin, apply as final coat only. First coat/s should be Gloss. PLEASE NOTE: This product is solvent based and flammable as supplied. It has been developed for external applications offering good airflow. Ensure adequate ventilation during application and right through to full cure. Ventilate-out all areas and workplaces before they become occupied. This product should be applied by industry qualified professionals and should not be applied in inhabited residences.
