Tec-Top Elastomeric Waterproofer | Flexible 200% Elongation | 100% Acrylic | Concrete Brick Wood Metal Stucco | Walls & Floors

Technical Data

Test Data

COVERAGE RATE

Test product over small area of the substrate to confirm coverage

IMPORTANT NOTES: Coating should dry to 6 mils on a smooth surface and 9 mils DFT on a textured surface.

The use of fluted, scored block or raked joints increase surface areas by 20%+ and decrease coverage rates. Allow for this increased surface area when determining material requirements.

APPLICATION TEMPERATURE: 50°F (and rising) - 90°F with relative humidity no more than 80%

APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS 

Surface Preparation

Prior to application, all surfaces shall be structurally sound, clean and free of dirt, grime, efflorescence, lime run, construction debris, form oils and release agents, chalked materials, loose and peeling paint, mold and mildew or other surface contaminants, etc.

The use of RainguardPro’s Restore-N-Prep™ Concrete and Masonry Cleaner system is recommended prior to the application of the top finish. This product promotes adhesion and preserves the system’s warranty. Follow manufacturer cleaning instructions.

Application Instructions 

Concrete and Masonry

Allow new concrete and masonry substrates to cure for 10 days. This neutralizes alkalinity and releases residual moisture. After cleaning, we recommend all surfaces shall be less than 15% moisture as measured with an electronic moisture meter. Full chemical cure occurs within 3-4 weeks depending on weather conditions.

Wood

Properly clean and prepare wood surfaces. Pre-treat knots with stain blocking primer material and prime surfaces.

Metal

Etch or otherwise clean metal surfaces. Use an appropriate primer.

Previously Painted Surfaces

Remove chalk, grime, loose and peeling paint and other contaminants. Repair surface and mortar joint defects. Allow patching materials to cure prior to application of primers. Tec-Top™ is best applied using airless spray equipment with a minimum 1.0 GPM capacity.

Refer to equipment manufacturer for best tip size. Tec-Top™ is supplied ready to use. Mix contents thoroughly prior to application. If material becomes too heavy to spray, thin with up to 1 quart of water per 5 gallons of material. To prevent skinning, cover the pail with a damp cloth.

Apply the product to the properly prepared and primed surfaces. Apply Tec-Top™ to surfaces at the recommended coverage rates depending on the surface type and porosity.

Spray Application

Spray apply Tec-Top™ to surfaces using a crosshatch spray pattern. Back-roll materials into the surface to create a uniform and pinhole-free surface film. Angle the spray tip from a point higher than the surface for the coating to build proper mil thickness.

Roller

Apply two coats to surfaces at the recommend coverage rate for a uniform, pinhole-free appearance. Re-coat the surface after approximately 4 hours.

Surface conditions and application variables are out of the control of Exterior Performance Coatings. As such, the applicator agrees to: Follow recommended application instructions, acknowledge limitations outlined in this technical data sheet, contact the manufacturer in the event there are any uncertainties, perform a test panel to confirm fit and finish before any general application.

The data on this sheet represent typical values. Since application variables are a major factor in product performance, this information should serve only as a general guide.

Precautions

• Do not apply at temperatures below 50°F or above 90°F.

• Do not apply unless temperature is 5° above the dew point or if rain is expected within 24 hours.

• Do not apply on a damp or moist surface as it will whiten and cause delamination.

• Do not allow to freeze.  Always sample on a test area prior to starting the actual job.

• Shelf Life of this material is 2 years from the date of manufacture (see batch number for manufactured date).

• Recommend the use of angular slip resistant aggregate in all coatings or flooring systems that may be exposed to wet, oily or greasy conditions.

• It is the responsibility of the contractor and end users to provide a flooring system that meets current safety standards.

• OK for use as an Industrial Maintenance Coating, Concrete Masonry Sealer, or Floor Coating, anywhere in the United States, including the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD)
