Section 2: Product
Description
Luster Keep™ is a
high-quality, proprietary aqueous acrylate polymer formula with a
high solids content. Easily applied, repaired or recoated it
develops into an extremely strong, durable, high gloss film-coating.
High Solids content ensures durability on high traffic floors
requiring less coating cycles, saving you time and money. Non
yellowing, fast drying easily removed with stripper Luster Keep™ is
nonflammable, odourless, and safe to use.
Section 3: Basic Use
Luster Keep™
provides an highly attractive finish that is extremely durable.
Luster Keep™ was developed to enhance the look and give an
attractive high gloss or wet look to today’s decorative concrete
surfaces and to provide the same protection to plain, grey concrete.
Luster Shield™ is recommended as a seal prior to finishing with
Luster Keep™. Luster Shield™ helps to maintain cleaner surfaces and
preserve the original appearance of the treated surface for much
longer period of time. Luster Shield™ prevents the penetration of
water, oils, acids, body fluids, liquids and other contaminants into
the treated surfaces. Luster Shield™ is an excellent waterproofer
that will improve fungus and mildew resistance. Luster Shield™ also
significantly retards efflorescence while imparting significant
additional resistance against freeze-thaw damage, such as cracking,
spalling, etc..
Section 4:
Application Procedures
Ensure your floor is clean, free from waxes,
grease, oils, stains, dust, dirt and other contamination Luster
Keep™ should be applied over a sealing coat of Luster Shield that is
at least 24 hours old. With a dust mop or polish spreader apply a
thin, uniform coat and allow the entire area to touch dry
completely. Drying time varies due to temperature, ambient drying
factors, and relative humidity but is usually in the range of 15- 30
minutes. Apply subsequent coats in the same manner and if preferred
machine buff after applying the 3rd or 4th coats ensuring the floor
has had at least 4 hours to dry. It is recommended to use between 4
to 8 thin coats on high traffic areas and as few as 3 thin coats in
other areas. For optimum results after 4 hours and before 24 hours
you should thoroughly burnish the floor with a high speed polisher (Polivac
or similar) using a hard high speed animal hair pad Luster Shield™
should not be applied when temperature falls below 8°C, as this will
slow drying and curing times. A minimum of 24 hours drying / curing
time, following application, should be allowed for strength
development before allowing heavy-duty service / traffic. Agitate
and mix Luster Keep™ thoroughly before use. Contact us
for advice, latest application procedures and training for the care
and ongoing maintenance of your new floor.
