Protec R11 PU Anti-Slip Coating

Cleaning:
The substrate must be thoroughly cleaned to remove dirt, oil, grease, dust, and other contaminants. This can be done by sweeping, mopping, and if necessary, using high-pressure cleaners or special cleaning agents.

Drying:
The floor must be completely dry before a coating is applied. Check to ensure that no moisture is trapped in the substrate, as this can impair adhesion.

Surface inspection:
Check the floor for cracks, holes, or other damage. These should be repaired to ensure an even coating.

Dust removal:
After sanding (if necessary), the floor should be thoroughly dusted once more to ensure that no dust particles impair the adhesion of the new coating.

This careful preparation ensures that the anti-slip coating adheres optimally and maintains its effectiveness over a long period of time.

To increase surface roughness and improve coating adhesion, it may be necessary to grind or abrade the surface. This also removes old coatings that could impair adhesion.

In general, the product can also be used without a primer. However, it may be advisable to apply a primer to improve the adhesion of the anti-slip coating. This should be selected and applied in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.

The following guidelines apply to the optimal temperature for applying the anti-slip coating.

Recommended temperature range: Our anti-slip coatings should be applied at temperatures between 10 °C and 30 °C. This ensures that the coating adheres well and cures properly.

Avoidance of extreme temperatures: At temperatures below 10 °C, the curing of the coating can be impaired, which may lead to poor adhesion and longer drying times. At temperatures above 30 °C, the coating may dry too quickly, which can also negatively affect adhesion and the final result.

Humidity: Humidity also plays a role. High humidity can prolong the drying time, while low humidity can accelerate curing.

Floor and surface temperature: The temperature of the surface itself should also be taken into account. Ideally, it should be within the recommended temperature range to ensure that the coating adheres well.

The following guidelines apply to the drying time of the anti-slip coating.

Touch-dry: The anti-slip coating is touch-dry after about 1 to 2 hours. This means that the surface is no longer sticky, but not yet fully cured.

Curing: Full curing generally takes approx. 24 hours, depending on environmental conditions (such as temperature and humidity).
