CLEARCOAT 44 is a single component, moisture cure, aliphatic clear urethane coating.  It produces a tough, glossy, hard wearing and chemically resistant surface.  CLEARCOAT 44 may be used alone as a clear, tough gloss coat over masonry, concrete, wood, or other approved substrates. If specified, a range of textured aggregates is available to provide a traction enhanced surface.

Caution!  READ THIS ENTIRE DATA SHEET BEFORE CONTINUING.

                       

All surfaces to be coated must be clean, dry, and completely free of loose particles, oils, grease, or any substance that would interfere with proper bond.  Clearcoat 44 may be applied over products such as Polafloor Colorcoat at any time after the Colorcoat has been thoroughly dry for at least 1 hour.  If overcoating a painted surface, check compatibility first, as some paints may bleed color or be lifted by solvents. Clearcoat 44 may be applied by brush or airless spray technique in a thin, even coat.  Care should be taken to avoid creating foam or trapping air bubbles which may later result in pinholes or hazing.  If traction enhancement is required, iron-free sharp white quartz sand may be broadcast into the wet Clearcoat 44. After the first coat has thoroughly dried with the embedded sand, a second coat of Clearcoat 44 is applied to thoroughly encapsulate the aggregate.  Sized and graded sharp white quartz sand is available from Andek Corporation.  Equipment may be cleaned with toluene or xylene while the Clearcoat 44 is still wet.                                       

 

LIMITATIONS:

Do not use below 35°F.  Do not apply if the application cannot be protected from precipitation for 4 hours.  Shelf life is 12 months when stored in proprietary containers between 45°F and 95°F.  Open containers will exhibit a reduced shelf life due to moisture absorption.

 

MAINTENANCE:

Damaged areas should be thoroughly sanded and cleaned and then recoated.  Dirt accumulations may be removed with warm water and detergent.

 

PRECAUTIONS:

WARNING!  This product is flammable.  Avoid sparks, open flame, and use EP rated equipment.  Use only in well ventilated areas.  Do not ingest.  In case of ingestion, do NOT induce vomiting and seek medical attention immediately.  Avoid contact with skin and eyes.  In case of contact, flush with clear water for 15 minutes.  In case of contact with eyes, seek medical attention in addition to flushing.
