Application Guidelines:

1. Make sure that surface area is completely clean.
2. Make sure that the surface area is bone dry (allow 3-4 dry days after cleaning)
3. The Imprinted Concrete Sealer is commonly a 2 coat application, however due to age and condition of the surface, this may vary to get a 'uniform' finish. Please contact us providing pictures if unsure. Furthermore, samples are available to try on a test area.
4. Apply sealer to the surface using a broom. (allow 2 hours minimum between coats).
5. Allow 4 hours before walking and 24 hours before any vehicle traffic on the surface (for the sealer to cure and bond to the concrete).

PLEASE REFER to our YouTube Channel if unsure regarding the use of colour tint.

After correctly applying the sealer, expect to have between 3-5 years protection. Sealer protection will vary dependent on a number of factors such as: traffic (foot/vehicle), weather and general maintenance.

Application

Brush slab to remove any dirt or debris. It is recommended that Smartseal Imprinted Concrete Sealer is applied with a Sealing Broom. The first application must be brushed into the surface whilst avoiding pooling, and allowed to dry past tacky prior to applying the second coat. Avoid application in strong, direct sunlight - do not apply if rain is likely within 8 hours of application.

Deicing salts should not be applied directly on Smartseal block paving or concrete sealers. Salt chemically reduces the temperature at which water freezes and will result in water ingress into the concrete. Subsequent freezing may result in the concrete seal being broken by the expansion of water as it freezes and white pitted areas may become visible.
