Auto-Gard F is a high solids, low-odor hybrid system ideal for steep ramps and other applications where increased texture is needed to prevent slip/skid of vehicles.
Auto-Gard F
Two component, urethane/epoxy hybrid system with coarse flint aggregate for high traction applications
System Overview
Auto-Gard F is ideal for all traffic service levels, from multifamily housing to hospital and retail garages. An epoxy wear coat provides the durability required for high-traffic areas, and the #3 flint aggregate gives this system our most aggressive non-slip properties.
Epoxy and urethane topcoats are available (consult with Innovacoatings to determine the best option for your project). A variety of colors are available for both topcoats.

Vehicular Traffic, Steep Ramps, High Traction
Type:
Urethane/Epoxy
Features:
- Epoxy wear coat
- Flint aggregate
- Proven history
Benefits:
- Higher durability vs urethane
- Does not crush and provides heavy texture

Technical Documents
How long does Auto-Gard F need to cure before opening to vehicular traffic?
Typically the coating needs to cure 24 hours before opening to vehicular traffic. In cooler temperatures this time may as may be 24-36 hours.
What type concrete curing compounds can be used with Auto-Gard F?
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 F 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 F can be applied?
The coating should not be applied to deck surfaces that are =/> 100°F/38°C.
You can trust Auto-Gard F in your next project
High-performance protection tested under the harshest environments. Auto-Gard F was developed to endure intense vehicular traffic while providing a seamless, durable, skid-resistance membrane to prevent the ingress of moisture and chloride intrusion.
