XPS Rockhard Clear Coat T200 – 1 Gal

Rockhard Clear Coat T200 – Solvent Based Gel Topcoat for Concrete

The Rockhard Clear Coat T200 by Xtreme Polishing Systems is a professional-grade solvent-based gel topcoat designed to provide durable protection for concrete floors, metallic epoxy floors, and other concrete coatings. Available at Sydney Industrial Coatings , this clear sealer offers outstanding resistance to flaking, peeling, and environmental damage.

Engineered for UV resistance, abrasion and impact protection, and long-term surface durability, T200 forms a tough, non-flexible barrier. It shields surfaces from mold, mildew, rust, corrosion, salt spray, acid rain, UV fading, oxidation, graffiti, ice adhesion, dirt buildup, animal and bird waste, and wind drag, making it ideal for both indoor and outdoor applications.

Application Instructions

APPLY OVER EPOXY

Apply T200 CLEAR COAT over Epoxy Wet on Wet (WOW Method): T200 can be applied over epoxy while epoxy is still wet.

APPLICATION STEPS:

• Pour T200 into acetone proof pump sprayer. Pump until significant resistance to further pumping is achieved to create plenty of pressure to prevent drips or sputtering.
• Pump sprayer must have a cone tip.
• Apply epoxy as normal.
• Let epoxy flow out for 20 minutes after application.
• After epoxy flows out for 20 minutes, there is a 30 minute window to apply T200 over the epoxy while it is still wet.
• Walk over epoxy with spikes.
• Spray apply T200 over epoxy, keeping spray wand 18 inches off floor, spraying in circular motions, similar to how acetone dye is sprayed when staining concrete.
• Overlap wet edge of previous pass 50%.
• To repeat above point, after the epoxy has flowed out for 20 minutes, there is a 30 minute window to apply T200 while epoxy is still wet.
• When planning application route, ensure applicator ends at an exit to avoid walking over recently applied T200.

Top coating epoxy less than 2 weeks old: If coating over epoxy the day after epoxy is applied, or between 1–14 days old, spraying T200 may create air bubbles in T200 film. To eliminate bubbles, apply T200 with a flat mop/microfiber pad using the following method:

• Solvent wipe floor prior to T200 application to remove dust, dirt, grime and debris.
• Add 8 oz of Xylene per 1 gallon of T200.
• Pour T200 into acetone proof pump sprayer.
• Remove spray head from acetone-proof sprayer wand so that there is an open end.
• Pump Sprayer 7 pumps to achieve a nice, even flow of T200 out of open end without sputtering.
• Saturate 17” flat-mop pad/microfiber with T200 w/ xylene added
• For best results, use two people to install application: Installer 1 apply T200 in ribbons while Installer 2 spreads product with flat mop/microfiber pad.
• Installer 1: Place open end of wand on floor. Keeping open end of wand pressed to the floor to avoid splashing, apply a ribbon of T200.
• Installer 2: Stay 3 feet back following behind Installer 1, spreading the ribbon with the saturated flat mop/microfiber pad. While spreading, flat-mop head should be angled diagonally, about 45 degrees, so that the top half of flat mop is leading the back half.
• Do not overwork T200 with microfiber – ONE SWIPE, ONE TOUCH.
• Installer 2 retrace path, overlapping previously applied area 3 inches.
• When Installer 2 retraces path back to starting point, Installer 1 applies ribbon of T200 on the wet edge of the previous, retraced path, with Installer 2 following 3 feet behind and repeating application technique.
• Installer 1 does not apply a ribbon while Installer 2 is retracing path, Installer 1 only applies ribbon on wet edge of the retraced path, otherwise too much product will be applied.
• When planning application route, make sure Installer 1 and Installer 2 end application at an exit so that they do not have to walk across recently applied T200 to exit.
