Technical Information

How long does Auto-Gard Aliphatic need to cure before opening to vehicular traffic?

Typically the coating needs to cure 72 hours before opening to vehicular traffic. In cooler temperatures this time may extend out as much as 24-36 hours.

What type concrete curing compounds can be used with Auto-Gard Aliphatic?

It is best to water cure concrete or use a sodium silicate curing compound. The use of acrylic or other “film forming” compounds will create bond issues and must be removed.

What is the minimum temperature at which Auto-Gard Aliphatic can be applied?

The coating should be applied at temperatures that are 40°F/4°C and rising during application.

What is the maximum concrete temperature that Auto-Gard can be applied?

The coating should not be applied to deck surfaces that are =/> 100°F/38°C.
