SpecGuard

SpecGuard is a high-gloss, water-based polymeric protectant that boosts the appearance and stain resistance of concrete floors

SpecGuard uses cross-linking nanotechnology for deep penetration and adhesion, creating a tough, stain-resistant coating with UV absorbers that protect colored or dyed concrete from fading. It can be used alone or paired with a reactive sealer like SpecHard or LithSeal SC for a glossy, harder, chemically resistant finish.

Key Features & Benefits

• 24-hour stain protection against common stain-causing agents found in grocery stores, restaurants, and warehouses
• High-gloss finish resistant to scuffs, scratches, and stains without buffing
• UV absorbers prevent degradation of colored or dyed concrete
• Works on steel-troweled, honed, polished, or highly polished concrete
• Low odor, water-based, meets federal VOC requirements
• Meets USDA standards for indirect food contact

Application Instructions

• Ensure the surface is clean and free of cures, oil, dirt, grease, or debris
• Apply with a pump-up sprayer with a 0.5 gpm spray tip to a small section at a time
• Spread with a microfiber pad using firm pressure for a thin, even coating
• Allow to dry tack-free for 20-60 minutes, then burnish with a high-speed burnisher
• Repeat for up to three coats for maximum gloss
• Allow 72 hours of dry time before testing stain resistance

Technical Data Summary

• Coverage: Typically 500-1,000 sq ft per gallon, depending on concrete porosity and texture
• Shelf Life: 1 year from manufacture date
