Surface Shine HS

Surface Shine HS is a durable, high-gloss acrylic sealer that enhances and protects concrete surfaces while resisting yellowing, abrasion, and chemical impacts.

Surface Shine HS is a clear, high solids, high gloss, nonyellowing acrylic polymer engineered as a cure and seal specifically for exterior surfaces such as exposed aggregate, natural stone, brick, quarry tile, terrazzo, and other concrete surfaces. It is also suitable for interior applications. This non-yellowing, durable sealer enhances the appearance of all treated surfaces with a high gloss sheen.

  • Minimizes efflorescence
  • Beautifies and protects concrete and exposed aggregate
  • Will not yellow under extreme UV exposure
  • Acts as a binder to minimize aggregate pop-out
  • Protects sealed surfaces from damaging effects of de-icing salts and acid rain
  • Provides resistance to abrasion and a wide range of chemicals and oils

Application

Surface Preparation: The concrete surface must be clean and devoid of any standing water. Any existing sealer or other materials that might inhibit the adhesion of Surface Shine HS should be removed.

Application Instructions:

  • For Fresh Concrete: Apply uniformly by spraying or rolling at 350-400 sq ft per gallon. The product can be applied using a handheld pump-up sprayer or an airless industrial sprayer. For roller application, use a short-nap solvent-resistant sleeve to prevent air bubbles. For an extra high gloss or on porous surfaces, a second thin application may be applied the following day at 400 sq ft per gallon. Two thin coats generally yield a better gloss than one thick coat.
  • For Existing Concrete: Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free of stains, oil, grease, dirt, and incompatible coatings before application.

Packaging

Packaging: Available in 55-gallon drums and 5-gallon pails.
