Surfacelogix® PolyGuard 85 is an aliphatic, solvent-based, tinted polyaspartic system with 85% solids. Use the PolyGuard 85 on its own or with full broadcast system coatings (pigmented and chip-embedded) for a durable, non-cracking, chemical- and tire mark-resistant finish with a glossy, “wet look” appearance. PolyGuard 85 is ideal for use in garages, restaurants, service areas, and many other surfaces and can also be used on countertops, wood, and laminates. Its UV protection allows for outdoors applications without yellowing. 

The complete PolyGuard 85 system consists of a pigmented base coating and a clear, high-gloss top coat sealer. Base and Clear kits separately.

• PolyGuard 85 Clear (this product) is a high gloss clear sealer specially designed for PolyGuard 85 Base. PolyGuard 85 Clear is a two-component top coating with mix ratio of 1:1. One kit of PolyGuard 85 Clear includes a 1-gallon pail of Part A and 1-gallon pail of Part B, creating two gallons of mixed product. 
• PolyGuard 85 Base is the base coat of the PolyGuard 85 system and is available in four colors: Light Gray, Dark Gray, Tan, and White. PolyGuard 85 Base is a two-component base coating with mix ratio of 2:1.

Directions

Preparation: Surfaces must be clean and free of any contaminants before application. PolyGuard 85’s performance is directly related to how thoroughly the surface is prepared. New concrete should cure at least 28 days before applying. When applying directly on old concrete or coated surfaces, all cracks should be eliminated, and existing coating should be removed to provide proper surface profile. To remove existing coating, sand/grind surface thoroughly with 60 grit sandpaper or diamonds. Test product in an obscure area to ensure desired results for adhesion and finish. If humidity or moisture is suspected to be present in the concrete floor, a suitable moisture vapor barrier (MVB) must be applied. If a moisture vapor barrier is not in place, seasonal variations in ground moisture can cause excessive moisture vapor transmission (MVT) which can cause problems to the coating application. Recommended MVT rate for the PolyGuard 85 must not exceed 3 lbs. per 1,000 sq. ft. per 24 hours. The relative humidity (RH) of the slab must not exceed 75%. If there is a moisture situation in excess of the above rate, the use of a MVB primer like Surfacelogix® PolyGuard MVB is recommended.
Mixing: Parts A and B of PolyGuard 85 Clear must only be mixed together using a ratio of 1:1. Pour parts A and B into a clean, dry container and mix with a drill gently, avoiding creating air bubbles, for 3 minutes.
Applications: Apply at a spread rate of 250–300 sq. ft. per gal. to yield 4-8 wet film thickness using a squeegee and back-roll with a non-shedding 3/8” nap roller. A second coat may be desired. The second coat can follow after approximately 1 hour of dry time, depending upon weather and sun exposure.
