ACRYLOCLEAR™

ACRYLOCLEAR™ SURFACE PREPARATION: If Applicable, trenching is necessary to form a complete seal; trench 4 to 6 inches around the perimeter of the structure. For proper adhesion to an existing substrate, it is essential that the surface be pressure washed at a minimum of 1500 P.S.I., using a water and chlorine solution, removing any loose, flaking or peeling paint along with any dirt, oil, grease, residues and especially mold, mildew and algae. ACRYLOCLEAR™ will resist mildew growth, but will not kill mildew already on the surface! Wire brush if necessary. Apply only to a sound, well prepared wall surface. Patch any holes, cracks, seams, imperfections, etc., with ACRYLOPATCH™ Waterproofing Caulk & Sealant, and then touch up the repairs with a color match of ACRYLOSEAL™ or ACRYLOSATIN™. Wait 12 hours between coats of any of the ACRYLOCOAT™ Product Line, except for ACRYLOCLEAR™, which can be recoated in 2 hours.

APPLICATION PROCEDURE: Stir well before using. Do not thin this product; apply as it is from the container. Do not apply when temperatures are below 45 degrees Fahrenheit, or when humidity is very high. Do not apply to extremely hot surfaces. The surface must be dry and free of all moisture. Do not apply when sealer will be subjected to rain or heavy dew before it has had enough time to dry (approximately 1 to 2 hours). Drying time will vary from location to location depending on weather conditions. Stir product occasionally during use. Apply using brush, roller or spray. Do not apply too heavily so that puddling occurs. When spraying, back roll with a thin nap roller cover. When rolling, use a thin nap roller cover. Sets to touch in approximately 1 hour, and dries in approximately 1 to 2 hours. Wait at least 2 hours before recoating. Two coats of ACRYLOCLEAR™ are recommended. Coating will appear to be blue, but will clear out as it dries.

Sprayers: Pump up stain sprayers can be used. Airless Sprayers may be too powerful, adjust pressure and other settings to spray a uniform amount of product without making runs, back roll with a thin nap roller cover.

CLEAN UP: Clean up all spills, tools and overspray immediately while the coating is still wet with warm soapy water.

GLOSS CHARACTERISTICS: For increased gloss, multiple coats can be applied, but sealer will also be more sensitive to blushing with increased film buildup. ASTM D523 (Standard Test Method for Specular Gloss) Gloss will be 70-80 degrees when applied to a non-porous substrate and when applied over a latex roof coating it will be 50-70 degrees.

ACRYLOCLEAR™ MAINTENANCE: For continued protection, recoat surface using ACRYLOCLEAR™ approximately every 3 to 5 years, or when desired gloss is no longer present.
