Usage Guidance

Mixing Ratio

Mix 100g Part A to 43g Part B for solvent-based Duraseal

Follow the simple steps below for application:

1. Gentle sand with fine grit sand paper to ensure an even surface
2. Wipe with a damp cloth then dry thoroughly before application of sealer
3. Mix the two parts together
4. Apply using a ‘de-fuzzed’ microfibre roller

We advise you to apply a thin layer - a maximum depth of 100 microns (0.1mm). Applying a thick, heavy coat will cause an uneven coverage and on some occasions creates a milky appearance. Cross-roll to give even coverage.

1 litre of Duraseal typically is capable of covering 8m2. We recommend applying 1-2 depending upon the substrate being sealed.  2 coats of Duraseal for more heavy duty trafficked areas and 1-2 coats for surfacing which won’t experience foot traffic. Here are some examples:

Concrete floors - we would usually recommend to seal concrete floors with two coats of sealer

Epoxy screeds - epoxy screeds can usually be sealed with 1 coat

Flake floor systems - these can usually be sealed with 1 coat, until it has a full coverage of flakes and then it would be two coats

Levelling Screeds - these would usually need to be sealed with 2 coats

Floor Tiles - usually fine to seal with 1 anti slip floor sealer application

Mixing Technique

For small quantities mixing in a cup with a stirring stick is sufficient. For larger mixes a drill with a slow speed paddle mixer is required.

Remember that Duraseal is intended as a sealer only - do not mix epoxy pigments with your Duraseal as this will inhibit the performance of the product.

Curing Time

Both water-based and solvent-based, kept at a constant room temperature of 20-22°C will be touch dry and tangible in 24 hours. We wouldn’t recommend objects or foot traffic to be placed on the surface until after 48 hours of application.
