APPLICATION
PROTECTAKOTE is a one component polyurethane that can be easily
applied by roller, brush or spray to provide an attractive
anti-slip coating. Unlike other coatings it is non-abrasive and
so does not damage goods.
CURING TIME
Depending on temperature and humidity PROTECTAKOTE can normally
be put into service in approximately 12-24 hours. Final chemical
resistance and physical properties are reached in 4-7 days.
COVERAGE
1.2-1.5m2 / litre for normal applications.
0.5m2/litre for high wear applications.
COLOURS
ProtectaKote is available in black, grey, blue, green and red.
As with all aromatic polyurethane's, colours darken with U.V.
exposure and gloss is lost with time. Light-stable versions are
also available in light and dark colours.
OVERCOATING AND REPAIRS
PROTECTAKOTE can easily be repaired or over coated after
cleaning and sanding the surface.
SURFACE FINISH
PROTECTAKOTE has a glossy finish and can be applied to give a
relatively smooth or rough finish.
SHELF LIFE AND POT LIFE
PROTECTAKOTE has a shelf life of 1 year from date of manufacture
and is best used within 24 hrs from first opening.
STORAGE
Store indoors between 15-25°C out of direct sunlight. Excessive
temperature will cause thickening.

UV RESISTANCE
500 hrs of QUV accelerated weathering resulted in no
deterioration in physical properties and no surface cracking.
There will however be a loss of gloss and colour with continued
exposure.
IMPACT RESISTANCE
Due to its excellent flexibility, PROTECTAKOTE has the ability
to stay bonded to substrates even when they are deformed by
impact.
CHEMICAL RESISTANCE
PROTECTAKOTE has good chemical resistance to most dilute acids,
bases and salts and many solvents. Further details are available
on request.
