DURABAK™

NON-SLIP SAFETY COATING

SPECIFICATIONS

DESCRIPTION:

DURABAK™ is a tough, single-pack, totally flexible, slip-resistant, waterproof protective polyurethane coating with self-contained recycled rubber granules for an attractive tough-textured finish. When exposed to atmospheric moisture, DURABAK™ undergoes a chemical curing process which changes it from a liquid to a tough polyurethane membrane. It has excellent abrasion and chemical resistance. It is also available in a smooth version without the rubber granules.

Both DURABAK™ (aromatic version) and DURABAK 18™ (aliphatic version) may be used for indoor and outdoor applications. However, as DURABAK™ may experience some degree of fade in outdoor applications, DURABAK 18™ is recommended for maximum UV protection under these conditions.

For enhanced UV protection, DURABAK™ may be topcoated with COTE-L'S rejuvenator. Call COTE-L Industries for more information.

DURABAK™ will chemically bond to most clean and dry surfaces. These include, but are not limited to, concrete, wood, fiberglass, metal, rubber and sound-painted materials. Some metal and extremely porous surfaces may need to be primed. DURABAK™ can be applied by roller, brush or spray. DURABAK™ can give a relatively smooth or rough surface, depending on application technique.

USES:

DURABAK™ has many applications for commercial, military and civilian use. DURABAK™ protects surfaces from foul weather elements and harsh chemicals, while creating a non-slip surface on:

pedestrian walkways/truck beds/ramps and loading docks/bridges/metal and wooden steps/catwalks/ship decks/marine applications/pleasure boats/storage tanks/floors/handicap ramps/pools and spas/sealing rusty pipes/playgrounds/freight elevators/tool handles/roofing/vehicle undercoating/curb ramps/parking lots

ADVANTAGES:

One-Part No mixing of components

Totally Flexible Never chips, flakes or peels

Repairable Bonds to itself

Protection Water proof. Resistant to acid, chemicals, UV exposure, salt water

Fast Drying Very short intercoat time;

Foot traffic in 6 to 12 hours

Ecconomical Lasts for years; no need to remove old DURABAK when recoating
