Surface Shine EX
High-gloss, low VOC acrylic sealer (ASTM C1315 Class A)
Surface Shine EX is a VOC-compliant, high-gloss, non-yellowing acrylic polymer engineered specifically for exterior surfaces such as exposed aggregate, natural stone, brick, quarry tile, terrazzo, and other concrete surfaces. It beautifies and protects various concrete finishes including stamped concrete, acid-stained concrete, integrally colored concrete, and exposed aggregate. This product offers fast-drying performance and is formulated to resist the damaging effects of de-icing salts, acid rain, abrasion, a range of chemicals and oils, and will not yellow under extreme UV exposure. It also acts as a binder to minimize aggregate pop out and reduce efflorescence.
- Will not yellow under extreme UV exposure
- Beautifies and protects stamped concrete, acid stained concrete, integrally colored concrete, and exposed aggregate
- Provides resistance to abrasion and a wide range of chemicals and oils
- Protects sealed surfaces from damaging effects of de-icing salts and acid rain
- Acts as a binder to minimize aggregate pop-out and minimizes efflorescence
Application
Surface Preparation
- Ensure the concrete surface is clean, dry, and free of all stains, oil, grease, dirt, and incompatible coatings before application.
Application Instructions
- Apply with a sprayer or roller in uniform thin films for optimal results. Only one coat is needed to seal, beautify, and protect, but for increased gloss, a second coat may be applied after the first has thoroughly dried, typically within 4 – 6 hours. Two thin coats are recommended over one heavy coat, especially on porous substrates.
Packaging
Available in 55 gallon drums and 5 gallon pails.
Shelf Life
Two years from the date of manufacture when stored in the original tightly closed containers. Prevent accumulation of water, dirt, or other contaminants.
Coverage
- Concrete: 200 – 400 sq ft/gal
- Exposed aggregate: 200 – 300 sq ft/gal
- Brick, stucco, etc.: 200 – 300 sq ft/gal
Standards
- Meets ASTM C1315-95, Type I Class A standards.
- VOC Content: Less than 350 g/L, compliant with Federal AIM rule VOC requirements and VOC standards in OTC/LADCO/MRPO regions for concrete curing and sealing compounds.
