DUR-RUBBER SEALER CONCENTRATE
Applying Dura-Rubber Sealer Concentrate properly ensures a long-lasting, waterproof, and durable coating. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to apply it:
Tools & Materials Needed:
• Dura-Rubber Sealer Concentrate can be used as a high gloss acrylic topcoat.
• Dura-Rubber Sealer Concentrate diluted up to 20% with water used a rubber sealer.
• Paint roller, brush, or spray gun
• Mixing container (if diluting)
• Surface cleaner & degreaser
• Protective gloves & goggles
• Stir stick or mechanical mixer
Step 1: Surface Preparation
1. Clean the surface thoroughly – Remove dirt, oil, grease, and any loose material. Use a degreaser if needed.
2. Dry the surface completely – Ensure no moisture remains, as Dura-Rubber adheres best to a dry surface.
3. Repair any cracks or gaps – Use a suitable filler or sealant for any significant surface imperfections.
Step 2: Mixing the Sealer
1. Stir the concentrate well – Make sure it is fully mixed before dilution (if required).
2. Dilution (if needed): Follow the recommended dilution ratio for your specific application.
3. Test a small area – Apply a small amount to check for adhesion and compatibility with the surface.
Step 3: Application Process
1. Apply the first coat (only one coat required) using a roller, brush, or spray gun in a thin, even layer.
2. Allow proper drying time between coats (typically 2-4 hours, but may vary depending on humidity and temperature).
3. Apply additional coats (usually 2 coats for optimal performance).
4. Ensure full coverage – Focus on seams, corners, and any vulnerable areas.
Step 4: Curing & Final Touches
1. Let the final coat cure completely (typically 24-48 hours).
2. Inspect the surface – Ensure even coverage and no missed spots.
3. Optional: Apply a topcoat or additional protection if required for specific applications.
Pro Tips:
✔ Apply in temperatures between 50-90°F (10-32°C) for best results.
✔ Use a HVLP spray gun for smoother application on large surfaces.
✔ Avoid applying in high humidity or direct sunlight, which may affect drying.
✔ Store unused product in a sealed container to prevent drying out.
