FAQ About Concrete Hand-Applied Polyurea Floor Protection
Common questions about using BW8009, BW6-9527 and BW0-8027 for concrete floor waterproofing, anti-corrosion and wear-resistant protection.
What is this hand-applied polyurea concrete floor system used for?
It is used for prepared concrete floors requiring waterproofing, anti-corrosion protection, wear resistance and weather-resistant exposed floor protection under abrasion, foot or light vehicle traffic, water contact and chemical splash conditions.
Why does the system use BW8009 primer?
BW8009 is the concrete primer. It seals capillary pores, helps control absorption differences and supports adhesion before the BW6-9527 quartz-sand build layers.
Why are there two BW6-9527 quartz-sand build layers?
The first BW6-9527 quartz-sand layer fills fine defects and starts the hand-applied polyurea build layer. The second layer builds additional thickness and creates a sanding-ready surface before topcoat application.
Which product forms the exposed wear-resistant topcoat?
BW0-8027 forms the exposed wear-resistant weather-resistant floor topcoat. It helps protect the floor against abrasion, weather exposure, water contact, chemical splash and surface wear.
Can the exact BW6-9527 build-layer consumption be fixed before inspection?
The floor system reference uses about 1.0 kg/m2 BW6-9527 plus 50% coarse quartz sand by weight for the first 1 mm build layer, and about 1.0 kg/m2 BW6-9527 with fine quartz sand for the second 1 mm build layer. Final consumption should still be adjusted according to defect depth, sanding loss, floor flatness and project specification.
What floor details need special attention before coating?
Concrete pores, surface dusting, rough texture, cracks, low spots, local defects, moisture, contamination, sanding requirements and flatness should be reviewed before coating.
What topcoat thickness is recommended for BW0-8027?
The product data lists BW0-8027 recommended dry film thickness of 100-200 micrometers as a topcoat, with theoretical coverage of 0.15 kg/m2 at 100 micrometers film thickness.
What information is needed before specifying the system?
Share floor area, concrete condition, roughness, defect depth, required build thickness, sanding requirement, traffic load, water contact, chemical exposure, outdoor weather exposure, topcoat color and inspection standard.
