Your average business card is about 20mils thick.
Most Dura Rubber applications require a coat 20mils when dry.

Dura-Rubber is 60% solids so it will take 3ea-11mil coats when wet to be 20mils when dry.

Coverage Per Gallon Dura-Rubber:
5mil = 180sf
10mil =90sf
20mil = 45sf
30mil = 30sf
40mil = 22sf


*Dura-Rubber takes 3 heavy coats to achieve a 20mil dry coating

*No matter how thick a coat you apply a minimum of two coats is always required.

Primer coverage is 200-300sf per gallon.

Minimum coverages for Dura-Rubber.

Swimming pools and ponds:

Most basic applications that do not require heavy durability and water saturation can be applied at about 10mils. Keep in mind the thicker the coat, the more durable it will be.

Suggested Dry Times between coats

45°F-60°F/50% Relative Humidity – Outdoors – 12 hours per coat
65°F-75°F – Indoors – 24 hours per coat
60°F+/50% Relative Humidity - Outdoors – 1-2 hours per coat
60°F+/50% Relative Humidity - In shade – 2-3 hours per coat


Once dry, the Dura-Rubber can be exposed to light to moderate traffic and water. (Not Submerged in water) If coating gets wet before it is cured it will turn white and will return to original color when it drys.

Cure time: (This is different from dry time)

5-7 days Minimum. Indoor applications double your dry and cure times This is dependent on temperature and humidity Low temperature and or high humidity will extend the cure time. Double the cure time for indoor applications

(see chart bottom of application page) This is required when submerged in water like a pool or pond and exposed to heavy chemicals.
