It sets fast, cures in hours, and stands up to heavy-duty vehicular decks and ramps as well as pedestrian balconies and breezeways. Formulated to meet ASTM C-957, it delivers a non-gassing finish on properly prepared interior or exterior concrete, plywood, and metal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMix Side-A (medium grey) with Side-B (clear) at a 10:1 ratio, then pull it across the deck with a notched squeegee or trowel. It goes down in temperatures as low as 20°F and recoats within 24 hours, so crews keep moving. Low odor and very low VOC (under 60 g\/L) make it a fit for occupied buildings, mechanical rooms, and kennels. Carried by Latux, this is the topcoat that closes out a PSI deck system built to last.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Two-component hybrid aliphatic-elastomeric topcoat (Side-A medium grey, Side-B clear)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMix ratio:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10:1 (Side-A to Side-B)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDry film:\u003c\/strong\u003e 14 ± 2 mils per coat at about 100 sq ft per gallon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSolids:\u003c\/strong\u003e 88% by weight, 87% by volume\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCure:\u003c\/strong\u003e pot life 30 ± 10 min, cures in 2 to 4 hr, recoat within 24 hr\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePhysicals:\u003c\/strong\u003e Shore A 85 ± 5, tensile 3200 psi, elongation 450%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVOC:\u003c\/strong\u003e under 0.5 lb\/gal (under 60 g\/L)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUV stability:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2000 hr Weather-O-Meter, no cracking or crazing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApprovals:\u003c\/strong\u003e named in Miami-Dade County, Florida NOA No. 25-0604.15 (expires 03\/06\/2031) as the top coat of the Flexideck C-WD waterproofing system.

The acceptance covers the assembly as a whole on concrete decks. It is not an approval of the top coat used on its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe NOA states that the system is designed to comply with the Florida Building Code including the High Velocity Hurricane Zone of the Florida Building Code, to a maximum design pressure of -502.5 psf. In the approved assembly without a tile topping, Top-Shield 5600EF goes on over the base coat at 1 gallon per 100 sq ft, to a minimum coating thickness of 14 ± 2 dry mils. An integrity test to ASTM D 5957 by an approved lab is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe NOA also requires, at Limitation 5, that the work be done by a contractor licensed for roofing and waterproofing who is a Manufacturer Trained Qualified Applicator approved and licensed by Polytuff Systems International.
