HARDCOAT

Solvent Based Acrylic Concrete Sealer

HARDCOAT is a solvent-based acrylic resin solution for use on concrete (normal and coloured), masonry & slate to seal the surface. It is used to put a clear glaze on ground/polished concrete floors, exposed aggregate, concrete roof tiles, imprinted (stamped) concrete drives, paths, etc. It helps maintain the surface clean and prevent pigment leach-out. HARDCOAT has good UV and weather resistance.


USES

HARDCOAT is used to put a clear glaze on concrete and masonry surfaces such as footpaths, driveways, lock-ups, garages, industrial floors, concrete roof tiles and other concrete articles, including exposed aggregate panels, etc. Also for use on stonework to 'lift' the colour & slate sealing but avoid excess application.

HARDCOAT provides a weatherproof, stain resistant and dustproof sealer. It may be used to seal dusting and porous surfaces to help against further degradation.

HARDCOAT is formulated to enhance the beauty of concrete surfaces.

HARDCOAT is resistant to rain, sun, water and grease offering excellent durability with good colour retention and clarity. HARDCOAT is non-yellowing.
