Peda-Gard M is a surface-applied coating system that provides a tough, long term waterproofing barrier for elevated slabs. The composition provides topcoats that can withstand impact from machinery and tools.
Peda-Gard M (Mechanical Room)
Two component, fast cure, low odor urethane system with optional epoxy topcoat
System Overview
Peda-Gard M is our waterproofing solution for concrete decks in machine rooms and other facilities where impact protection is essential. The FC7500/FC7960 base coat, and both the FC7510/FC7961 urethane and 70714-70715-09 epoxy topcoats are low odor, making them ideal for indoor application. And both topcoat options provide the protection necessary in these challenging environments.

Technical Documents
How long does Peda-Gard M need to cure before opening to pedestrian traffic?
Typically the coating needs to cure 24 hours before opening to pedestrian traffic. In cooler temperatures this time may be 36 hours.
What type concrete curing compounds can be used with Peda-Gard M?
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.
Are there special top coats that can be used with Peda-Gard M?
The system allows for the option of a urethane top coat or an epoxy top coat which resists mechanical damage from dropped tools, etc.
What is the maximum concrete temperature that Peda-Gard M can be applied?
The coating should not be applied to deck surfaces that are =/> 100°F/38°C.
