ULTRALIT PROTECT, water concentrate 1:1 - is a one-component solution of non-yellowing acrylic resins based on water. It contains no solvents and is resistant to UV radiation. This sealing agent is designed to protect decorative/architectural concrete used on floors and walls (polished concrete, terrazzo, dry-screeded floors, cast-in-place concrete, paving stones) that require protection from dirt, efflorescence, color loss, weathering, frost, etc., particularly on freshly poured concrete, to avoid degradation over time. ULTRALIT PROTECT is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use and can be applied to any porous concrete with any type of finish (from smooth to rough). It can be used on both damp and dry surfaces, providing a breathable, long-lasting coating.

BENEFITS:

• User-friendly (water-based)
• Suitable for indoor and outdoor use (UV resistant)
• Ideal for freshly poured concrete or brickwork
• Resistant to water, oil, and dirt
• Protects against efflorescence
• Weather-resistant
• Frost-resistant
• Prevents color fading
• Long-lasting durability and high abrasion resistance

APPLICATION AREAS

• Can be used on concrete floors in facilities such as:
• Shopping centers
• Supermarkets
• Aircraft hangars
• Parking lots
• Warehouses
• Distribution centers
• Production plants
• Medical facilities
• Office buildings and more

APPLICATION Precautions / Limitations:

• Protect from freezing.
• Always clean the surface to remove dirt, milky residues, hardening compounds, or coatings that might prevent ULTRALIT PROTECT from penetrating.
• Apply only when the temperature will remain above 2°C for at least 4 hours after application.
• Keep surfaces treated with ULTRALIT PROTECT away from water for at least 24 hours after application.
• Protect metal, glass, wooden, and painted surfaces from contact with ULTRALIT PROTECT.
• If the product is accidentally applied on these surfaces, wash them immediately with clean water.
• The product may slightly darken the floor after application.
• Read the Safety Data Sheet before use.

APPLICATION PROCEDURE

• Apply ULTRALIT PROTECT using standard painting tools, applying two layers of the solution (each diluted as recommended) at an interval of half an hour. This allows the product to be absorbed capillarily, penetrate into the deepest layers, and consolidate completely and uniformly.
• The consolidation treatment reduces microporosity, resulting in lower water absorption and reduced brittleness, while preserving the final appearance of the treated substrate.
• The high resistance to ultraviolet radiation and yellowing provides exceptional durability over time. ULTRALIT PROTECT is typically diluted from 50% to 400% depending on the density of the substrate. Waterproofing is achieved after 24 hours, with maximum protection and consolidation reached 10 days after application.

ESTIMATED COVERAGE RATES

Yield per 1 liter of mixture - on average, about 8-16 m² depending on the quality of the substrate, number of coats, and type of mixture (1:3; 1:2; 1:1; 100%)

USAGE INSTRUCTIONS

• Dilute the concentrate 1:1 with water (e.g., 0.5 liters of concentrate + 0.5 liters of water).
• Apply the diluted product to the surface using an acrylic paint roller or sprayer, then spread it evenly with a microfiber mop
• It is recommended to perform 2-3 applications.
• Coverage: One layer should apply 60-130 g/m², corresponding to a coverage of 8-16 m² per liter of diluted product.
• Drying and Polymerization: The drying time for one layer is about 2-3 hours at +15°C. Polymerization reaches 96% effectiveness within 24 hours. It is possible to walk and work on the surface after approximately 3 hours. Cleaning should be performed only after 6 days when sufficient polymerization has occurred.
• Moisture Protection: For surfaces exposed to water or moisture, protect them from moisture for up to 24 hours after application.
