SPE- PS95 - Polyaspartic Sealer / Binder

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION: PS95 is a two component 95% solids polyaspartic aliphatic polyaspartic sealer.  This material can be used as the base coat and the topcoat over paint chip decorative broadcasts or colored sand broadcasts to provide an infinite array of color schemes or patterns.. PS95 has excellent chemical resistance, hardness, abrasion resistance, UV stability and has an excellent clear gardner color.  However, the outstanding feature of this product is its quick tack free time for foot traffic.

Recommended for areas where a medium build broadcasted floor / surface is desired and installation downtime is very limited.  This material can also be applied over a broadcasted or troweled system as a thin to medium build sealer.

LIMITATIONS:

*Color stability may be affected by environmental conditions like high humidity/chemical exposure.  Exposure to some types of lighting such as sodium vapor lights may cause discolorations.

*Clarity of color may vary from batch to batch.

*Substrate temperature must be 5°F above dew point.

*Too thick of an application may result in surface imperfections or bubble generation.

*Always apply a test patch to determine product suitability and adhesion performance for your proposed application method and procedures.

*All new concrete must be cured for at least 30 days prior to application.

*Do not expose this product to water until fully cured.

*See reverse side for application instructions.

*Physical properties are typical values and not specifications.

*See reverse side for limitations of our liability and warranty.

*Relative humidity can affect dry time and gel time – See page 2
