Where to Use

Use on Previously Coated or Uncoated, Vertical or Horizontal, Interior or Exterior surfaces such as: Pavers, Concrete, Mexican Tile and Unglazed Tiles, Brick, Aggregate, Natural and Artificial Stone, Masonry and Stucco. Not recommended for use on wood, metal, granite, marble, terrazzo, areas immediately adjacent to pools or areas subject to hydrostatic pressure. Do not use over Oil-Based products.
CAUTION: Sealed surfaces may become slippery when wet. Use caution when walking on surface when moisture is present. Apply in sections so wet material does not have to be walked on during application.

Preparation

New concrete must cure for a minimum of 30 days. For proper penetration and adhesion of sealer on new or smooth concrete floors, use BEHR® CONCRETE & MASONRY CLEANER/ETCHER NO. 991 to clean and etch the surface. Follow all label instructions. For severe stains, use BEHR® CONCRETE & MASONRY CLEANER/DEGREASER NO. 990. Follow all label instructions. Scrape and remove any loose or peeling coating. To completely strip the surface use BEHR® CONCRETE & MASONRY PAINT STRIPPER NO.992. Follow all label instructions. Scrape and remove any loose or peeling coating.

Application

DO NOT THIN. Stir or shake before applying. Use product when temperature is between 50-80°F (10-27°C). Do not apply in direct sunlight. Do not apply to wet surfaces or if rain or heavy dew is expected within 24 hours. Apply a thin coat using a nylon/polyester brush, 3/8-1/2” nap roller or a high quality pump sprayer with an adjustable tip at a spread rate of 150-300 sq. ft. (14-28 m2) per gallon. Spread rate is highly dependent on surface roughness and porosity. If sprayed, backroll for uniform thickness. Allow first coat to dry 4 hours, then apply a second coat at a spread rate of 300-400 sq. ft. (28-37 m2) per gallon. Additional coats (no more than 4) may be added for a higher gloss and added protection.
Note: Horizontal surfaces may be subject to excessive wear. Therefore, periodic touch-ups may be necessary.

Dry Time

Dries to touch in 1 hour. Longer dry time required in cooler temperatures and in higher humidity. Floors may be subjected to light foot traffic after 24 hours. Allow 72 hours before repositioning furniture or subjecting surface to heavy foot or automotive traffic. Park tires on corrugated cardboard for 14 days after applying product. Wait at least 30 days before cleaning with a mild, non-abrasive liquid detergent.
