where can i use it?
Unsealed tile grout. May also be effective on a variety of other porous cementitious surfaces (test first). For previously sealed grout, conduct several small test patches for absorption and compatibility.
how much do i need?
Variable depending on method of application and surface porosity. Generally one quart will cover a minimum of 100 feet of standard grout lines. Do not thin.
how do i install or apply it?
Always have adequate ventilation. Apply to grout liberally and in an even manner, using a sponge, dry lint-free rag, small brush, or any other tool which can be used comfortably. Flood coating is acceptable, but avoid puddling and to wipe off tile. One coat is generally sufficient. IMPORTANT: Wipe off any sealer which has not penetrated into the grout within 10 minutes; do notallow sealer which has not soaked in to dry on the surface (simply wipe off with a slightly damp cloth or sponge). Always test a sample for suitability prior to full use. Note: these instructions are intended to be general only and not exhaustive. The applicator should determine what preparation and techniques are best suited to the specific surface. See product data sheets for most current information.
Drying
Under normal conditions, Safecoat® Safe Seal dries to touch in one hour or less and can be top-coated (or if the surface is still porous recoated with another coat of Safe Seal) after 2 hours. Normal conditions include a dry surface, access to fresh air flow, moderate humidity, and temperatures above 55°F. Thick application, high humidity or conditions other than normal will cause Safecoat Safe Seal to dry and cure more slowly.
how do i maintain it?
Periodically clean with water or a non-volatile all purpose cleaner (Safechoice Super Clean) with a damp mop or wipe.
