Surface Preparation
Surface preparation is key to the success and life of the UTX60. UTX60 must be applied to fully cured unsealed interior concrete that has been properly prepped with a diamond grinder using a 30 grit (or courser diamond) to achieve a CSP –2 to a CSP-3 profile. If applying over an existing fully cured coating, or outside of the recoat window, you will need to sand thoroughly with a 60-100 grit sanding screen until the surface is completely dulled with scratches. Vacuum surface several times to ensure surface dust and debris is completely removed. Applying the UTX60 over dirty or dusty concrete will result in delamination. The surface needs to be completely dry and free of oil, dirt, grime, wax, detergent or any incompatible paint or coating. To prevent delamination caused by moisture vapor transmission, a moisture vapor test should also be performed to determine if vapor emissions are present.
Substrate, air, and material temperatures must not be less than 55 degrees Fahrenheit, and not exceed 80 degrees Fahrenheit. If applied outside of these limits, the Armor UTX60 may not achieve adequate film formation, and may develop blushing, bubbles, or hazing. Please note that higher substrate, air, and material temperatures, as well as excessive humidity, may speed up the cure rate of this product; cooler temperatures and lower humidity may slow the cure rate of this product.
Product Mixing
Slow drill mix 2 Parts A with 1 Part B in a clean 5 gallon pail. Mix for 2-3 minutes, or until material is thoroughly blended and homogenous. Avoid creating a vortex, or whipping air into the coating. Do not mix more than can be applied within the usable pot life time frame.
Tint: The Armor UTX60 Matte is designed for use as a clear coating and should not be tinted.
Non-Slip Additive: For added surface traction, the Armor Non-Slip additive can be added. The ultra-fine, fine, and coarse Armor Non-Slip additives works best in the Armor UTX60. Applying the Ultra-Fine: Slowly drill mix 3-6.5 ounces of non-slip additive per gallon, until completely blended, then apply. For Fine and Coarse: When applying the second coat, add the non-slip additive to the coating using a broadcast spreader, and back roll to encapsulate the non-slip additive.
DuraTrac Additive: Slowly drill mix the DuraTrac additive into the fully mixed, ready to apply UTX60. If applying in color, ensure the color has been mixed in as well. While 5 ounces of DuraTrac per gallon of UTX60 is suggested, you can add up to 32 ounces of DuraTrac for every 1 gallon of UTX60. Please note, the more DuraTrac you add, the more cautious you need to be to avoid clumping. If clumping occurs, too much DuraTrac has been added. DuraTrac can also slightly reduce the gloss level. Testing in a small area is strongly suggested in order to determine the appropriate amount of DuraTrac necessary for your application.
Please note, do not apply both the Armor Non-Slip Additive and the DuraTrac Additive. Only one should be applied per application.
Product Application
Apply the mixed material using a 3/8” shed-less nap roller. 18” rollers are recommended to speed up application time and reduce roller marks. Please note that pot life may vary. If the material becomes thick while applying, or starts sticking to the roller , stop applying and discard the mixed material. At this point it has reached the end of the usable pot life. While applying, keep a wet edge to prevent roller marks. It is recommended to work in small sections, usually using control joints as dividers to ensure proper application results. Do not allow to Puddle! If recoating after 24 hours you must wait 5-7 days to allow the coating to cure. Once 5-7 days has passed, a light sanding using an 80 grit screen pad (and a thorough surface cleaning) is required prior to applying an additional coat to ensure adequate coat adhesion.
Blending roller lines: When rolling the UTX60 it is considered a best practice to lift the roller at the end of the stroke so there are no roller lines/stop lines. Applying the UTX60 is very similar to applying paint, be sure to always maintain a wet edge. Work fast, but controlled.
Re-Coating
When applying the second coat, it is important to re-coat within the suggested re-coat windows on page one. The second coat should be applied the same way the first coat was applied. Note that higher substrate, air, and material temperatures, as well as excessive humidity may greatly reduce the acceptable re-coat window of this product. When working in higher temperatures, always re-coat as early in the re-coat window as possible to avoid failure between coats. If re-coating outside of the suggested window, or beyond 24 hours, sand using a 60-120 grit sanding screen to ensure adequate adhesion. Vacuum and clean thoroughly, as was required under Surface Preparation.
Applying UTX60 outside of the suggested parameters may result in application failure. It is always recommended to test the product in a small, inconspicuous area (on the same concrete substrate) for desired results prior to application. Coverage rates may vary for all coatings and substrates depending on porosity, density, texture etc. The applicator is responsible for suitability of application, and the results of the application. We suggest applying to a test area first to verify compatibility, absorption, coverage rate, and project suitability.
Clean-Up
Use MEK. Dispose of containers in accordance with local and federal regulations.
Product-Removal
Dried, cured sealer may be removed with the Armor CR100, or by using a diamond grinding method, sandblasting method or similar mechanical action.
First Coat (Applied Directly To Concrete): Up to 200-300 ft2/ gallon
Second Coat (Applied Over Existing Coating): Up to 250-350 ft2 /gallon
Please note, the above are coverage estimates. Actual coverage rate will depend on several factors including surface porosity, texture, application method, applicator, etc. This is not a high build coating and excessive build up should be avoided.
The Armor UTX60 Matte kit is a 3 gallon kit.
Interior fully cured and properly prepped concrete floors.
Common Applications:
The Armor UTX60 – Matte ships in clear and offers a matte to low gloss finish. Tint packs can’t be added to the Armor UTX60 – Matte. If you are looking for an opaque color, consider the Armor UTX60 – High Gloss instead.
The Armor UTX60 – Matte can last up to 10+ years. Actual life will depend on several factors including coating application, number of coatings, condition of the concrete floor, surface abrasion, etc.
