The Armor WB25 can be applied with a 3/8-1/2” nap roller, or a commercial pump sprayer. For a consistent high gloss finish, apply two coats spaced 6-8 hours apart. Do not exceed 24 hours apart between coats.

Time Of Day

The Armor WB25 should only be applied in the early evening when air and surface temperatures are declining, and when the sun is no longer positioned over the surface.

Surface Preparation

The Armor WB25 should be applied to a completely clean and dry surface. If the surface was cleaned with water or pressure washed prior to application, allow the surface to dry for at least 24 hours before sealing. While the surface may appear dry and feel dry to touch, water below the surface trapped in the pores can cause the issues. While pressure washing the surface is typically sufficient, spot treatment may be necessary for deep or older stains.

The Armor WB25 is designed specifically to be used on unsealed porous concrete and concrete pavers. It can also be applied to concrete and concrete paver surfaces previously sealed with a water based acrylic as long as the acrylic has been properly prepped for adhesion. The Armor WB25 should not be used on smooth or dense concrete surfaces. It is always suggested to apply the Armor WB25 to a test area to verify absorption, coverage, compatibility, and project suitability.

The Armor WB25 should not be used to seal clay brick, red Chicago pavers, flagstone, slate, or natural stone. If you are looking to seal clay brick, red Chicago pavers, flagstone, slate, or natural stone, consider instead of the Armor WL550 or the Armor SX5000 WB.

Note About Sealing Concrete Pavers:

Please note, while the Armor WB25 can be applied over paver joints, it is not designed as a bonding agent and will not harden or bond the loose sand in the paver joints. If applying with a roller, loose sand in the joints may cling to the roller and be redistributed across the pavers. For best results, apply first coat with a sprayer if you are applying to pavers with loose sand in the paver joints.

When applying to porous pavers, gloss level may be reduced, and more material may be required to achieve desired finish.

Adding Non-Slip: For added surface traction, the Armor Non-Slip additive can be added. The ultra-fine and fine Armor Non-Slip additives works best in the Armor WB25.  Applying the Ultra-Fine: Slowly drill mix 3-6.5 ounces of non-slip additive per gallon of sealer, until completely blended, then apply. For Fine: 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.

Clean-Up

Use warm water and soap. Dispose of containers in accordance with local and federal regulations.

Removal

Dried, cured sealer may be removed with the Armor CR100, or by using a diamond grinding method, sandblasting method or similar mechanical action.

Porous Surfaces: Up to 175 FT2/gallon in one coat.

Smooth Surfaces (once properly prepped): Up to 200-225 FT2/gallon in one coat.

Coverage will vary depending on porosity, surface condition, application method, and the amount of material applied by the applicator. The above coverage rates are estimates and will vary. Two coats are suggested for even coverage and appearance.

The Armor WB25 is a great choice for a variety of interior and exterior concrete applications, including:

• Pool decks and patios
• Driveways, walkways, and stairs
• Retail and shop floors
• Much more!

The WB25 can be applied to a variety of interior and exterior concrete surfaces, including:

• Stamped concrete
• Poured and broom finished concrete
• Exposed aggregate concrete
• Concrete pavers
• New, uncured concrete

The Armor WB25 is designed specifically to be used on unsealed concrete and concrete pavers. It can also be applied to concrete and concrete paver surfaces previously sealed with a water based acrylic as long as the acrylic has been properly prepped for adhesion. The Armor WB25 should not be used to seal clay brick, red Chicago pavers, flagstone, slate, smooth concrete, or natural stone. If you are looking to seal clay brick, red Chicago pavers, flagstone, slate, or natural stone, consider instead of the Armor WL550 or the Armor SX5000 WB.

The Armor WB25 can’t be applied over any other film forming sealer, other than a water-based acrylic sealer. It can’t be applied over a water based acrylic, an acrylic latex, a paint, epoxy, or urethane.

When applied in clear, the Armor WB25 will provide a transparent high gloss finish.

The actual level of gloss and enhancement received will depend on the type and age of the surface, age, porosity, condition, applicator, application method, and amount of material applied. For an accurate representation of what your surface will look like once sealed, we suggest applying the product to a test area first.

When properly applied, the Armor WB25 can provide up to 1-3 years of life on an exterior surface before the need to recoat, and up to 2-7 years of life on an interior surface.

While the Armor WB25 is designed to out-last and out-perform similar products on the market, there are several factors that can impact actual product life including the severity of surface abrasion and level of foot traffic, the porosity of the concrete or pavers, and the amount of resin build-up on the surface. Some surfaces need to be sealed every year, while others can go a few years without sealing.
