CHATTAHOOCHEE SEALER

SUGGESTED TOOLS & MATERIALS NEEDED

1. Solvent resistant roller with ¾” to 1 ¼” nap depending on surface
2. Solvent resistant roller tray
3. Eye protection and gloves
4. EAGLE CLEANER DEGREASER & NEUTRALIZER

 

**NOTE: ALWAYS TEST FIRST – We strongly suggest, before applying any EAGLE products, you should always check the suitability and desired finish on a small area before starting your application. When applying to a test area, you should use the same surface preparation process and apply using the same equipment you will be using to complete the full general application.

 

PREPARATION

Since many sealer application issues can be avoided by properly preparing your concrete, always take the time needed to prepare your surface. Preparation is key.

 

Step 1: Clean any dirt, wax, grease, oil and other contaminants that may interfere with the sealer from adhering to the surface. This includes removing any prior coatings, UNLESS previous coating is the same or a similar solvent-based sealer (for instructions on removing old sealer or preparing a prior water-base sealer for additional maintenance coats, click here).

 

Clean oily concrete with EAGLE CLEANER DEGREASER & NEUTRALIZER. Use a medium to firm bristle brush for heavily oiled spots.

 

Step 2: Thoroughly rinse surface with high pressure nozzle on your garden hose. It is recommended to allow 24 hours for surface to completely dry after rinsing (may take longer to dry if humid environmental conditions exist or if the substrate is indoors). 

 

**NOTE: It is not recommended to use a pressure washer on Chattahoochee epoxy set surfaces. You run a risk of blowing rocks off the surface.

 

SURFACE & AIR TEMPERATURES

For best results, apply when surface and air temperatures are above 50° F and below 95° F. Applying sealer on windy days may cause rapid surface drying preventing proper curing of sealer and should be avoided.

 

KEEP IN MIND

If applying in extremely hot conditions, you will have to account for faster dry time, and work accordingly, to avoid stringing (i.e. “cobwebbing”) and physically inducing air into the film, due to overworking, as the viscosity (thickness) of the sealer rapidly increases.

 

APPLICATION

For best results, always apply CHATTAHOOCHEE SEALER in two (2) thin coats to achieve net square foot coverage rate. Do not thin product. 

 

• For EXTERIOR application ONLY.
• Perform a test to ensure sealer compatibility.
• Brush may be used where roller won’t reach.
• Do not pour directly from container onto concrete.
• Use ¾” to 1 ¼” nap to evenly coat stones

 

Keep roller soaked and apply vertically, or horizontally, to entire area, maintaining a wet edge to avoid roller marks. Wait until the surface is tack-free (approx. 4 hours) before applying a second coat by cross-rolling perpendicular to the first coat ensuring complete coverage. Foot traffic should be avoided for 4-6 hours. Vehicle traffic should be avoided for 48 hours.

 

• Do not apply if rain is imminent.
• Cooler temperatures or increased humidity may slow the drying time.

 

 

NET COVERAGE RATE

Approximately 100 sq. ft. per gallon. Older or very porous surfaces may require several coats.

 

To calculate your total area square footage (length X width = total square feet) to determine the amount of product you’ll need to properly meet the suggested net coverage rate.

 

CLEANUP

Clean up tools with Xylene, Toluene or Lacquer Thinner.

Do not use Paint Thinner, Mineral Spirits or water.

 

MAINTENANCE

Clean sealed surface with water only. Reseal surface as needed, but not more than every two years to prevent buildup of sealer.
