MasterSeal Concentrate Tech Data

MasterSeal Concentrate – Asphalt Based Pavement Sealer

Product Description

MASTERSEAL CONCENTRATE is a mineral filled asphalt emulsion pavement sealer designed to protect and beautify asphalt pavement. MasterSeal Concentrate is formulated to be job-mixed with water and aggregate. MasterSeal Concentrate meets ASTM D8099/D8099M-17 Standard Specification for Asphalt Emulsion Pavement Sealer.

Recommended Uses
MasterSeal Concentrate is ideal for all types of pavement surfaces including parking lots, shopping malls, airports, driveways, roadways and more.

Estimated Material Requirements
One gallon of MasterSeal Concentrate will cover approximately 100-120 square feet (11.1 to 13.3 square yards) per coat when properly mixed and applied.

Application Rate of Mixed Materials
Apply properly mixed MasterSeal (MasterSeal, water, additive and sand) and at a rate of 70-82 square feet (7.77 to 9.11 square yards) per gallon. Application rates may vary due to pavement porosity and method of application.

Surface Preparations
Surface must be clean and free from loose material and dirt. Cracks should be filled with SealMaster Cold Pour or Hot-Applied Crack Filler. Oil stains should be cleaned and primed with SealMaster Oil Spot Primer.

Mixing Procedures
Mix MasterSeal Concentrate in accordance with the following mix design (based on 100 gallons of MasterSeal Concentrate for ease of calculation):
MasterSeal Concentrate………………………… 100 gallons
Water…………………………….15-25 gallons
Top Tuff Polymer Additive…………1/2-2 gallons
Sand (40-70 mesh)……….. ………….200-500 lbs.

Application Equipment
Properly mixed MasterSeal Concentrate shall be applied by mechanical squeegee/brush equipment or spray equipment capable of spraying coatings with sand. Equipment shall have continuous agitation or mixing capabilities to maintain homogenous consistency of mixed material throughout the application process. Truck mount or self-propelled squeegee/brush equipment shall have at least 2 squeegee or brush devices (one behind the other) to assure adequate distribution and penetration of mixed MasterSeal into bituminous pavement. Hand squeegees and brushes and brushes shall be acceptable in areas where practicality prohibits the use of mechanized equipment.

Application Procedures
For optimum performance and durability apply a minimum of two coats of properly mixed MasterSeal Concentrate. A third coat of mixed MasterSeal Concentrate may be applied to high traffic areas such as entrances, exits, and drive lanes for added durability. Allow each coat to dry thoroughly before applying successive coats. Allow final coat of MasterSeal to dry for 24 hours prior to opening to vehicle traffic.

Application Conditions
Mixed MasterSeal Concentrate shall not be applied when temperature is expected to drop below 50°F during application and for a period of at least 24 hours after application.

Line Striping and Traffic Markings
Use SealMaster 100% Acrylic Traffic paint for line striping and traffic markings.

Cautions
Both surface and ambient temperature shall be a minimum of 50°F and rising during MasterSeal application. Do not apply if temperature is expected to drop below 50°F within a 24 hour period after MasterSeal application.

Packaging and Availability
MasterSeal Concentrate is available in 5-gallon pails, 55-gallon drums and bulk tanker load quantities. MasterSeal Concentrate is supported by a national network of SealMaster manufacturing facilities along with a national network of qualified applicators.
