Use Recommendations

This sealer is non-hazardous, low odour and delivers excellent adhesion and high durability that keeps concrete and masonry better for longer. This product can deliver excellent levels of gloss which can be varied by the number of coats or dilution with water.

Application directions:

Use with confidence on:

Warehouses
Garages
Tilt up industrial buildings
Domestic concrete floor areas

BEFORE STARTING

For new concrete, ensure the concrete has cured for at least 21 days for best results. Ensure that all traces of oil, dust or other contaminants have been removed, as this may affect adhesion.
On old concrete, remove all contaminants by using chemicals in combination with high pressure washing. Once surface is clean allow the surface to ivey before applying

The level of cleaning will determine the final appearance that will be achieved.

APPLICATION METHOD AND EQUIPMENT

Apply via spray pack (weed spray type), trigger spray, brush or roller at the typical coverage rate (see technical information).
For new or dense concrete it may be necessary to dilute the ACRI-SEAL at a ratio of 1:1 with water and apply this diluted mixture.
If the first coat leaves a well sealed surface; and to prevent a high gloss finish (if you do not want a high gloss) then dilute the second coat 1:1 with water as well, and apply at the typical coverage rate.
If you require a high gloss finish then apply the second coat without any dilution.
For aged, worn or crumbling concrete use this product as received without diluting.

PRECAUTIONS

Do not apply to wet concrete or surfaces that have a moisture content of more than 15%.

Refrain from applying if it is going to rain on the surface within 48 hours or if surface temperature is below 9 C or the air humidity is above 80%. Use only water to thin or dilute. Store product container in a cool area out of direct sunlight with lid firmly affixed.

Can this product be used as a same day sealer for driveways and concrete?

No, we do not recommend this as a same day sealer however some of our customers do use this as a same day sealer. We recommend using a solvant based product such as Gloss Seal Easy Coat as a same day sealer as solvants dry faster.

If things go wrong is there a sealer stripper we can use?

Yes, use AC800 which is “Universal Paint Stripper & Graffiti Remover” to efficiently strip water based acrylics such as Acri-seal from most surfaces.

Will the product change the colour of my liquid limestone

Yes, however not as much as a solvent acrylic.
