Concrete Sealing & Coating provides the opportunity for applicators and designers to protect and beautify the concrete surface. Perhaps the most important element in decorative concrete, the selection of the appropriate sealer or coating will add durability to the concrete, protect the concrete and beautify the final appearance.
The sealer/coating selections can be grouped into the following general categories.
Acrylic Polymers
There exists a wide range of material technologies in the Acrylic Polymer products range. These products may act as curing agents and sealers for hydrating and protecting the concrete and may also provide gloss and colour depth. Concretech CS-Series and WB-series acrylic sealers are designed for professionals and offers a wide range of products for final selection:
· CS-Series – These materials are high quality acrylic polymers in a solvent solution. The range of products provide solutions for concrete curing and sealing to high gloss, high performance materials that have good abrasion resistance. Concretech CS-Series acrylics are UV stable and will not fade or yellow under UV exposure.

Epoxies
Epoxies provide a highly durable finish for protection of the concrete. These polymers provide enhanced abrasion resistance and excellent protection of the concrete. In general, epoxies are not UV stable and may deteriorate or yellow under UV exposure. Depending on the specified system, these materials may provide a high gloss finish and darken and enhance the concrete color.
· U/B 803 – Two Component Water Based Epoxy for high penetration and adhesion. Provides color enhancement and gloss to the surface. Very Good Chemical resistance and abrasion protection UB803 TDS Aug 07.pdf
· U/B 680 – High Gloss, two component solvent based epoxy for high color enhancement, gloss and chemical and abrasion resistance. Ultrabond 680 TDS March.pdf
· U/B 400 Epoxy Primer UB400 TDS Aug 07.pdf
Urethanes
Urethanes provide a highly durable finish for the protection of the concrete, these polymers are UV stable and provide color enhancement, gloss and long term protection of the concrete surface.
