Sikafloor® ProSeal
Sikafloor® ProSeal is a solvent based, clear, acrylic resin polymer solution used to cure, harden and seal fresh or hardened concrete.
- Excellent moisture retention.
- Curing Efficiency to ASTM C-156 is 75%.
- Good adhesion to old and new concrete.
- Quick drying.
- Helps control dusting for both new and existing concrete floor surfaces.
- Effectively cures and seals concrete surfaces in a single, economic operation.
- Non-yellowing.
- Easy application by spray or roller.
Usage
Sikafloor® ProSeal may only be used by experienced professionals.- Sikafloor® ProSeal is used for optimum curing and sealing of fresh concrete floors and structures.
- Curing compound in order to limit surface drying and cracking.
- Provides curing and sealing for Sikafloor® dry shake hardeners (i.e. Sikafloor®-3 QuartzTop, Sikafloor®-2 SynTop, Sikafloor®-1 MetalTop and Sikafloor®-FibreShield).
- Anti-dust treatment and improvement of the abrasion resistance of existing concrete surfaces.
- Suitable for exterior and interior application.

Storage Conditions
Store in dry conditions at temperatures between +5°C and +25°C. Protect from frost.
Density
~ 0.9 kg/I (at +20°C)
Application
Ambient Air Temperature
+ 10 °C minimum / + 30 °C maximum
Relative Air Humidity
80% r.h. maximum
Dew Point
Beware of condensation!
The substrate and uncured floor must be at least 3 °C above dew point to reduce the risk of condensation or blooming on the floor finish.
Substrate Temperature
+ 10 °C minimum / + 30 °C maximum
Waiting Time / Overcoating
Allow previous coats to become tack-free before applying additional coats.
| Substrate Temperature | + 10 °C | + 20 °C | + 30 °C |
| Time | ~ 60 minutes | ~ 25 minutes | ~ 20 minutes |
Note: Times are approximate and will be affected by changing substrate and ambient conditions, particularly temperature and relative humidity.
Consumption
0.1 - 0.25 l/m2/coat (4 - 10 m2/l/coat).
Note: This figure is theoretical and does not include for any additional material required due to surface porosity, surface profile, variations in level and wastage, etc.
MIXING
Sikafloor® ProSeal is supplied ready for use. Stir thoroughly before use for a minimum of 2 minutes using a low speed electric stirrer (~ 300 rpm).
APPLICATION
For fresh concrete, apply immediately after finishing techniques have been completed. Apply in a continuous even film by low-pressure spray unit. The suitability of spraying equipment must be confirmed by trials. Application is also possible by brush or roller. To achieve the highest visual aesthetics and performance, a second coat is recommended. Wait for first coat to dry tack-free before applying a second coat.
CLEANING OF TOOLS
Clean all tools and application equipment with Sika® Thinner C immediately after use. Hardened / cured material can only be removed mechanically.
CLEANING
To maintain the appearance of the floor after application, Sikafloor® ProSeal must have all spillages removed immediately and must be regularly cleaned using rotary brushes, mechanical scrubbers, scrubber dryers, high pressure washers, wash and vacuum techniques, etc., using suitable detergents and waxes.
