How To

CA100 Aqueos 100% Aliphatic Polyurethane

Application

• Thoroughly clean the wood substrate to be coated, making sure to remove all dirt, debris, gum etc.
• Dry abrade the wood substrate with 120 grit sandpaper, or on wood floors use conventional floor sanding preparation techniques.
• Tack the wood substrate with water and clean rags to remove all residue.
• Apply CA100 with a pad applicator or t-bar squeegee or pad.
• Allow 3-5 hours to dry (conditions may cause dry time to vary, so ensure the wood substrate is tack free before applying the next coat).
• If more than 16 hours has elapsed after the previous coat, dry abrade the wood substrate and tack with water.
• Apply 2-3 coats of CA100 or recoat until the desired appearance is achieved.
• Allow wood substrate to cure for 24-48 hours before opening to moderate traffic.
• Allow a minimum of 72 hours before opening to regular use.

Cleanup and Precautions

CA100 is slippery when applied to surface so use caution when walking on adjacent horizontal surfaces. DO NOT walk on surfaces coated with CA100 Aqueous Aliphatic Urethane. Water flush all equipment, vegetation, paths, concrete, asphalt, and other adjacent surfaces immediately upon undesirable contact. Leave job site free of any trace amounts of CA100 Aqueous Aliphatic Urethane. Always remember that CA100 Aqueous Aliphatic Urethane is a hazardous chemical, and refer to the health and safety considerations listed in the MSDS sheet prior to commencing any project. Fully protect adjacent surfaces including vegetation and be aware of the potential for wind drift into areas with cars or pedestrian traffic when rinsing or applying. Never leave behind any containers or equipment, and appropriately label any containers of residue for disposal.
