Protecting Concrete
Keeping concrete clean and beautiful
Stratmore manufactures surface products to seal concrete against weathering, staining and chemicals.
Product
HARDCOAT
HARDCOAT is a solvent-based acrylic resin solution for use on concrete (normal and coloured), masonry & slate to seal the surface. It helps to maintain the surface clean and prevent pigment leach-out. HARDCOAT has excellent UV and weather resistance.
Dries to a satin finish. More coats increase sheen.
What's it used for?
HARDCOAT is used to put a clear glaze on concrete and masonry surfaces and provides a weatherproof (but not waterproof), stain resistant and dustproof finish. It may be used to seal dusting and porous surfaces to help against further degradation. HARDCOAT is formulated to enhance the beauty of concrete surfaces.
HARDCOAT is resistant to rain, sun, water and grease offering excellent durability with good colour retention and clarity. HARDCOAT is non-yellowing. For a single coat system or where application to green concrete is required, see SAME DAY SEALER.
What can it be applied to?
HARDCOAT can be applied to a wide range of substrates such as footpaths, driveways, lock-ups, garages, industrial floors, exposed aggregate, etc.
Coverage:
Exposed Aggregate:...........4 m² per litre
Broomed Surface:...............7 m² per litre
Trowelled Surface:............12 m² per litre
To reduce slipperiness of coated substrates, add Slip Reducing Additve to HARDCOAT.
Limitations
HARDCOAT will wear, but it can easily be overcoated, as it is resoluble. Wear rate will depend on the substrate and type of traffic. For vehicle traffic, HARDCOAT will wear more quickly, especially in areas where wheels turn or where traffic is restricted to one location (such as a driveway) and where forklifts operate. Soft rubber tyres, such as forklift tyres, may mark HARDCOAT if allowed to skid on the treated surface.
HARDCOAT is not a waterproof membrane and is not to be used as a sealer in structures containing water. Refer to the "Stratmore Guide to Sealing Concrete" for additional details.

SAME DAY SEALER
SAME DAY SEALER is a single-coat solvent-based acrylic resin solution for use on concrete (normal and coloured), to seal the surface. It helps to maintain the surface clean and prevent pigment leach-out. SAME DAY SEALER has excellent UV and weather resistance and may be applied to green concrete surfaces.
Dries to a semi-gloss finish. More coats increase gloss.
SAME DAY SEALER TEXTURED is a version of SAME DAY SEALER that is used to put a clear, gritty, slip-reducing glaze on the surface.
What's it used for?
SAME DAY SEALER is used to put a clear glaze on ground/polished concrete floors, exposed aggregate, imprinted (stamped) concrete drives, paths, etc. SAME DAY SEALER provides a weatherproof (but not waterproof), stain resistant and dustproof finish. It may be used to seal dusting and porous surfaces to help against further degradation.
SAME DAY SEALER is formulated to enhance the beauty of concrete surfaces. SAME DAY SEALER is resistant to rain, sun, water and grease offering excellent durability with good colour retention and clarity. SAME DAY SEALER is non-yellowing.
SAME DAY SEALER can be used as a single coat system and applied to green concrete after 24 hours.
SAME DAY SEALER TEXTURED is recommended for application to wet area substrates, such as pool surrounds.
What can it be applied to?
SAME DAY SEALER can be applied to a wide range of substrates such as footpaths, driveways, lock-ups, garages, industrial floors, exposed aggregate, etc.
Coverage:
Exposed Aggregate:...........6 m² per litre
Broomed Surface:...............8 m² per litre
Trowelled Surface:............12 m² per litre
Limitations
SAME DAY SEALER will wear, but it can easily be overcoated, as it is resoluble. Wear rate will depend on the substrate and type of traffic. For vehicle traffic, SAME DAY SEALER will wear more quickly, especially in areas where wheels turn or where traffic is restricted to one location (such as a driveway) and where forklifts operate. Soft rubber tyres, such as forklift tyres, may mark SAME DAY SEALER if allowed to skid on the treated surface.
SAME DAY SEALER is not a waterproof membrane and is not to be used as a sealer in structures containing water. Refer to the "Stratmore Guide to Sealing Concrete" for additional details.
Do NOT exceed two coats in total.

WBHP SEALER
WBHP CONCRETE SEALER is a clear low VOC waterborne sealer for interior and exterior concrete and is effective in sealing the surface, preventing ingress of water and other contaminants, thus making it easier to keep clean and helping to maintain its original appearance for longer.
WBHP CONCRETE SEALER has excellent weathering, UV and yellowing resistance. WBHP CONCRETE SEALER has a good open time and exhibits excellent flow and leveling.
What's it used for?
WBHP CONCRETE SEALER is for sealing concrete surfaces against water and contaminants for decorative and protective purposes. It is designed for use in areas subject to foot and light vehicular traffic and generally areas subject to moderate wear and tear.
WBHP CONCRETE SEALER is specifically designed for use on horizontal surfaces where it will tolerate water pooling on it intermittently. Once cured, it forms a clear non-absorbent coating which resists water and will not blanch when wet. It has greater wear resistance than most common sealers.
WBHP CONCRETE SEALER does not contain solvents and is therefore suitable for interior use.
What can it be applied to?
WBHP CONCRETE SEALER is primarily intended for smooth or lightly textured concrete, but may be used on more heavily textured surfaces with care. WBHP CONCRETE SEALER is ideal for application to all types of concrete which has aged for at least 7 days after finishing operations are complete. It is also recommended for use on older concrete and most types of masonry to seal against the ingress of water and other contaminants.
Coverage: Varies depending on new or aged concrete and the number of coats applied. Refer Technical Data Sheet.
Limitations
WBHP CONCRETE SEALER is designed for use in areas subject to foot and light vehicular traffic and generally areas subject to moderate wear and tear. Areas subjected to high degrees of wear and tear are not suitable for sealing.
WBHP CONCRETE SEALER may be used on uncoated timber but is not recommended for use on plastics, metals or other non-porous substrates.
Not recommended for applications where water may pool for long periods before drying.
Use PROTECTA-COAT GLOSS for vertical substrates.
Surface Hardener
To chemically densify the concrete surface against wear and chemicals
Product
DUST-GUARD
DUST-GUARD Hardening & Dust proofing Compound is formulated to harden and dustproof new or old concrete surfaces. It reacts with free lime and other components in concrete to form insoluble crystals within the pores of the concrete. Proper application gives the concrete a hard, dust-free surface that minimises staining and to which paints and resilient mastics will bond.
What's it used for?
DUST-GUARD is recommended for hardening and dust proofing concrete floor slabs, beams and columns. Applications include:
Industrial, commercial, residential slabs.
Applications that are to be covered with resilient flooring or paint.
Dust proofing areas where solvent-based products cannot be used.
What can it be applied to?
DUST-GUARD is applied to new or old concrete surfaces.
Coverage:
Broomed Surface: 7m² per litre depending on surface porosity.
Trowelled Surface: 12m² per litre depending on surface porosity.
Multiple coats may be required on porous floors.
Limitations/Precautions
Do not allow DUST-GUARD to puddle or over apply as white crystals may form on the surface of the concrete. If white crystals start to form on concrete surface, flush immediately with water and brush away by broom.
If concrete treated with DUST-GUARD is to be subsequently coated (paint, resilient flooring, etc) or to which sealants and adhesives are to be applied, check with manufacturer of coating/adhesive system for any compatibility issues prior to application of DUST-GUARD.
