Universal Protective Sealer

Special features

  • Two-part urethane clear coat
  • Seals and protects indoor concrete
  • UV and chemical resistant

Product Description
UPS-670 is a two-part urethane sealer used to protect and seal unfinished concrete while providing a clean prepared surface suitable for all foot traffic. It is not only a sealer but also provides UV resistance, and harsh chemical resistance and can be cleaned and maintained for years to come.
Pre-Installation Checklist
A successful installation requires proper preparation of the subfloor. Read and understand all applicable guidelines and Technical Data Sheets before installation.
Sub Floor Examination
Prior to installation, the subfloor must be checked according to applicable installation guidelines. It must be solid, sound, clean, porous, free of chaps, anti-adherents, and resistant to pressure and tension. Confirm sufficient porosity by performing a water drop test according to ASTM F3191-16. Check for missing or compromised vapor barriers and hydrostatic pressure by carrying out RH or CaCl moisture tests following ASTM standards F1869-16 or F2170-19. Results of 99% RH or 25# CaCl could indicate a higher moisture content in the slab than what tests can measure, and there might be hydrostatic pressure and/or a compromised or missing vapor barrier.
Sub Floor Preparation
The subfloor's condition will determine which type of mechanical treatment is required (e.g., wire brushing, sanding, grinding, or shot blasting). Dust, paint, curing compounds, sealers, residual adhesives, or other surface contaminants MUST be removed, and a porous surface must be achieved by suitable means. The installer can only determine the extent of subfloor preparation at the site. Clean the surface with an industrial vacuum cleaner and tack the floor with a damp microfiber mop before application. Do not use sweeping compounds unless water-based, as most others contain oil or wax, which will act as an anti-adherent and prevent primers, sealers, leveling compounds, coatings, and/or adhesives from bonding to the concrete. Cracks and gaps must be treated before application of primers, sealers, leveling compounds, coatings, and/or adhesives (see Technical Information #19 @ www.staufusa.com).
Mixing of Components
Pour Part B completely into Part A. Thoroughly mix the two components with an electric mixer for at least 3 minutes until a uniform mixture and color are achieved.
After mixing both components thoroughly wait for approx. 15 minutes, then mix again for 1 minute.
Add 2 quarts of clean water to the mix for the first (primer) coat.
Storage
Store and transport protected from freezing. Recommended minimum temperatures are 35°F for transport and 40°F for storage. Do not stir the product if frozen, allow it to thaw completely.
Limitations
When using other than STAUF products in conjunction with STAUF primers, sealers, leveling compounds, or adhesives, STAUF denies any and all responsibility for any ensuing problems and/or damages without prior written authorization from STAUF.
Do not dilute primer/sealer or mix with other products.
In case of an accident, injury, spill, or exposure, see SDS for information. Consult the Technical Data Sheet at www.staufusa.com for updated information.
