Printable EasySeal™ How-To Guide

 

Step 1: Surface Preparation 
 

• Cover areas at risk of over-spray with plastic drop cloth 
• Newly poured concrete must cure for 30 days prior to application 
• For existing concrete: 
• Remove paint or previously applied sealer using Soy Gel Stripper 
• Remove carpet glue or other adhesives using Bean-e-doo Mastic Remover 
• Remove oils, dirt, or debris using Scrub Brush and Concrete Cleaner & Degreaser. Also use this after applying stripper or mastic remover 
• Verify absorption by pouring a cup of water in various areas. If not absorbed within 5 minutes, etch the surface with Hard Troweled Floor Pre-Treatment 
• Allow the concrete to thoroughly dry before Application 

 

Step 2: Application 

 

Coverage rate is approximately 200 square feet per gallon, when applying two thin coats. Coverage rates may vary based on concrete texture, porosity, and application method. 

 

NOTE:  Store Sealer at room temperature. Before applying, surface temperature must be above 40°F (4°C) but not over 95°F (35°C). 

 

Option 1: Spraying (preferred method) 

• Remove filters from Pump-Up Sprayer 
• With Pump-Up Sprayer begin at a far corner, spraying a single thin coat in slightly circular motions 
• After 6-12 hours apply second coat: 
• First, use a thumbnail to see if the initial coat dents or scratches; if so, allow more time to dry (cure) 
• Apply the second coat in the same manner as described above 
• Cure for at least 24 hours before allowing foot traffic or placing furniture 

 

Option 2: Rolling 

• Pour into Paint Tray 
• Use a 3/8" Nap Roller to apply your first coat in a north-south direction 
• Do not apply pressure to the roller — this can cause streaking. Let the roller's weight do the work 
• After 6-12 hours apply second coat: 
• First, use a thumbnail to see if the initial coat dents or scratches; if so, allow more time to dry (cure) 
• Apply the second coat in the same manner as described above, except in an east-west direction 
• Cure for at least 24 hours before allowing foot traffic or placing furniture 

Step 3: Seal & Protect Finish  

 

• Interior surfaces: Concrete Floor Wax 
• Exterior surfaces: Solvent-Based Acrylic Sealer 

 

Tools & Supplies: 

 

• Plastic Drop Cloth 
• Concrete Cleaner & Degreaser 
• Scrub Brush 
• Hard Troweled Floor Pre-treatment (if needed) 
• Spiked Shoes (if using Hard Troweled Floor Pre-Treatment) 
• Pump-up Sprayer(s) 
• 9 Inch Roller Frame, 2 Covers & Paint Tray (if Rolling) 

 

Pro Tips: 

 

• When Hard Troweled Floor Pre-Treatment is applied, wear spiked shoes to prevent permanent footprints 
• If sealer puddles, immediately back roll with a 3/8" nap roller (soak in sealer and wring out excess) 
• Use Xylene to clean tools 
• Add felt pads under furniture or heavy objects to avoid damaging finish 

 

Maintenance: 

 

• Interior surfaces: Protect finish every two years with Concrete Floor Wax or spot treat high-traffic areas as needed 
• Exterior surfaces: Protect finish every two years or as needed with Solvent Based Acrylic Sealer
