MIXING AND APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS

1) PRODUCT STORAGE: The recommended storage temperature is approximately 22 °C (72 °F). Do not damage containers. Store in a dry place. Do not store for extended periods in direct sunlight. Protect containers from resin and moisture contamination.

2) SURFACE PREPARATION: All surfaces to be coated should be clean of any dirt and grim, efflorescence, lime run, form oils, release agents, grease, mud, excess mortar, mold and mildew, etc. All cracks should be pointed or caulked. All voids, bee holes, masonry surface defects and openings, such as conduits, pipes, drains, door frames, vents, air conditioner opening, electrical opening, control joints, or any dissimilar materials should be repaired using urethane or other approved patching. If an acid etch or an acid stain has been applied to the surface, it must be thoroughly flushed to remove all residue and then allow to dry. A

3) PRODUCT MIXING: Improper mixing may result in product failure.  Mix slowly for 2-3 minutes.  Do not shake.  Too vigorous mixing can introduce air bubbles and cause a cratered look on the coating surface.

4) PRODUCT APPLICATION: IMPORTANT: Proper methods to protect from over spraying should be implemented. Atomized particles will adhere to most surfaces and are extremely difficult to remove.  Temperature and humidity directly affect pot life and dry time. Conditions should be between 40 – 95 °F (5 – 35 °C) and humidity should not exceed 80%. Apply using airless spray equipment, rolling, or brushing. Apply VandlGuard® Single-Part as the recommended coverage rates. If spraying apply in a fine mist, cross-hatched pattern to build up the wet coating. As soon as the entire surface has been coated, immediately repeat the process with a second pass.  After 4 hours, you can apply a second coat with the same application method above. Smooth Painted Surfaces Apply two coats of  VandlGuard Single-Part Urethane Clear Coat over high quality exterior paint systems for graffiti resistance. Unpainted Porous Surfaces

• For unpainted porous surfaces, use Micro-seal Water Repellent/Sealer prior to application of VandlGuard Single Part Urethane.
• Any runs should be brushed our rolled out immediately before drying

5) CLEANUP: Uncured material can be removed with a water. Cured material can only be removed mechanically. All empty  containers must be disposed of according to local, state, and federal regulations.

6) GRAFFITI REMOVAL: Attend to any graffiti as soon as possible. The longer graffiti sits unattended, the harder removal becomes. Within the first couple of days a power wash will remove the graffiti. After that, VandlClean® Super Graffiti Remover may be required to completely remove graffiti. In the event VandlClean® Super is needed, spray graffiti with VandlClean® Super, allow to sit for several seconds and follow up with a power wash to remove. Repeat as necessary. Depending on graffiti intensity, more than one pass may be necessary.

LIMITATIONS

• VandlGuard Single Part Urethane should be tested on all substrates before complete application to determine acceptable color, surface porosity, application rates and methods before starting general application
• Do not apply unless temperature is 5°F above the dew point or if rain is expected within 24 hours.
• Should not be applied in high wind, rain or when the ambient temperature is below 5 °C (40 °F) or above 100°F.
• Certain porous surfaces may require sealer or block filler to allow the VandlGuard Single Part Urethane to create a more desirable application and maintain the integrity of the surface.
• Do not apply on damp or moist surface as it will whiten and may cause delamination.
• Do not allow any Rainguard products to freeze.
• Do NOT overapply.  More is NOT better.  A heavier application can cause micro blistering and affect the finish
• Physical properties are typical values and not specifications.
