Rubber-Lok Liquid Synthetic Rubber | Ultra Flexible 1000% Elongation | Stops Leaks | Low VOC | UV Resistant | Concrete Stucco Masonry Wood Metal Asphalt Bitumin

Rubber-Lok is an ultra-tough, super-waterproofing, alkali resistant, water-based copolymer elastomeric coating with outstanding adhesion and flexibility.  Rubber-Lok is water-based for easy cleanup and low odor. Rubber-Lok is uniquely formulated to waterproof, repair and protect a variety of substrates including asphalt and bitumin roofs, below grade exterior foundation walls, planter boxes, metal gutters.  Use as primer and can paint over it with acrylic and latex paints.

Designed as a single-part water-based coating with the highest performance in coastal, temperate, humid, hot, and extreme alkaline environments. Rubber-Lok creates a tough, long-lasting protective membrane that remains flexible over time, even under adverse conditions. Its elongation and tensile strength provide unsurpassed resistance to maintenance traffic, weather conditions, and wear. Unlike similar generic coatings, Rubber-Lok is formulated to have exceptional adhesion to a variety of substrates. Its proprietary formula features copolymer elastomeric resins to produce a seamless, flexible, durable membrane that displays exceptional weathering ability and good UV resistance.

It contains low VOCs to keep the air healthier for people to breathe. Because of the low perm rate and smooth topcoats, Rubber-Lok requires few antimicrobial agents. Rubber-Lok also contains NO zinc additives and has a low erosion rate, which contributes to cleaner wastewater in our streams, rivers, lakes, and bays.

Available in 1 & 5 Gallon Containers, Rubber-Lok can be applied by rolling, brushing, dipping, pouring or spraying.

APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS FOLLOW THESE SIMPLE APPLICATION STEPS

Surface Preparation

Clean substrate from any contaminants that could prevent adhesion, including but not limited to oil, grease, dust, and debris. Solvents and commercial cleaners should not leave a residue per SSPC-SP1.

The use of Restore-N-Prep™ Concrete and Masonry Cleaner system is recommended as a pre-treatment to clean masonry surfaces. Once clean, allow the surface to fully dry before sealing or applying a top-coat (See the Restore-N-Prep™ TDS for details)

 

Application

Remove all contaminants and loose material, such as dust, dirt, oil, silicone, release agents, wax, mildew, salt deposits, heavy oxidation, and chalky or loose coating. Check the entire surface and thoroughly power wash it. Do not apply at temperatures below 45°F nor during, nor 24 hours preceding inclement weather, including rain, fog, mist, or freezing temperatures. PROTECT FROM FREEZING DURING SHIPMENT AND STORAGE. Do not store material at temperatures below 50°F. Flush all equipment with water before use. Stir Rubber-Lok thoroughly until uniformly blended but avoid excessive mixing to prevent air entrapment.

 

Safe Handling

Use product only with adequate ventilation and/or an appropriate cartridge type respirator. Avoid contact with skin and wear protective gloves. Read the Safety Data Sheet before using.

Clean Up

Clean up promptly by washing with acetone or recommended clean up solvent before product cures Once cured, product can only be removed from equipment mechanically. Cured product can only be removed mechanically. Dispose of according to local, state, and federal requirements.

Spread Rates

Spread rates can vary depending on application needs. Below-Grade applications would require 80-mils Dry-Film Thickness (DFT). Above-Grade applications would only require 40-mil Dry-Film Thickness (DFT).

Precautions

This is a high gloss finish and can be slippery when wet. Use material in a well-ventilated area. Protect the work of other trades. Protect shrubbery and other plants with drop cloths. Protect automobiles and all other areas not to be coated from overspray. Remove overspray from any windows, automobiles, metal, etc. as soon as possible should it occur. To prevent permanent staining, clean spills or leaks in a timely manner.

All surfaces to be coated should be clean of any dirt and grime, efflorescence, lime run, form oils and release agents, grease, mud, excess mortar, and mold and mildew, etc. 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 allowed to dry completely.

Do not apply to surfaces if moisture content is greater than 25% as measured with an electronic moisture meter. Do not apply materials in climates where freezing temperatures have existed prior to application. Allow adequate time for surfaces to thaw. Establish that air, surface, and material temperatures are above 50°F (4.4°C) and at least 5°F above the dew point prior to painting. Do not apply at temperatures below 50°F when temperatures are expected to drop below 50°F within 48 hours of application. Do not apply if rain, snow, or lower temperatures are expected within 48 hours. Do not apply if relative humidity is greater than 90%.

Store materials in a well-protected area at 45°- 90°F. Avoid freezing temperatures, direct sunlight, & moisture. Keep away from heat sources.
