{"product_id":"watco-powerfloat-sealer","title":"Watco Powerfloat Sealer","description":"\u003cp\u003eWatco Powerfloat Sealer is a clear epoxy floor sealer designed for hard, smooth and power floated concrete indoors. Its two part, water based formulation seals and dustproofs suitable concrete while retaining the appearance of the underlying floor, with a choice of Gloss or Matt finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDense concrete can be difficult to coat because ordinary penetrating sealers cannot soak into the surface. Powerfloat Sealer is formulated for this type of floor and can be applied directly after correct cleaning and preparation. It suits warehouse, workshop and industrial interiors where a clear, easy-clean finish is wanted. Watco recommends diamond grinding or shot blasting where practical for the best overall result, particularly on highly polished surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClear epoxy protection for smooth concrete indoors.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGloss and Matt finish options.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNormally one coat, without a separate primer.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSurface Preparation\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAllow new concrete at least twenty-eight days to dry. Remove oil, grease, dust, dirt and other contamination, leaving a clean, dry surface. Highly polished concrete may require mechanical abrasion. Confirm suitability for the actual floor before application; a small test area helps assess appearance and adhesion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Data\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePack size\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5L\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFinish\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eClear Gloss or Clear Matt\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eComposition\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTwo part, water based epoxy\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eApplication range\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e15–30°C\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePot life\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUp to 2 hours at 20°C; aim to apply within 1 hour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eShelf life\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e24 months unopened\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCoverage\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eApproximately 40m² per 5L per coat (8m²\/L). Spread a full mixed pack over a measured area of at least 40m² rather than applying it heavily. One coat is normally enough; very porous substrates can need a second coat for an even finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDirections for Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStir the resin and curing agent separately, then empty both complete components into the outer tin.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMix thoroughly for two to three minutes with a wide bladed stirrer, scraping the sides and base.

Apply evenly with a medium pile roller and brush at edges.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaintain a through draught and suitable temperature while curing. Allow approximately sixteen hours at 15–20°C before general traffic, with longer waiting in poorer conditions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\u003ch3\u003eLimitations\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eInterior use only. Excessive thickness or inadequate ventilation can prevent the coating drying clear. Cold or damp conditions delay or prevent curing, so do not apply below 15°C or above 30°C. Not suitable for bare metal; seek advice before coating self-levelling compounds. Remove food from the area during application and cure. Store at 15–25°C for at least eight hours before use and protect from freezing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eProduct FAQs\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan it seal smooth power floated concrete?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, that is its intended application.
