Continuous Weave Polyester Fabric
Meets U.S.D.A. Requirements
Low Odor / Solvent Free
Resin Rich Surface for Chemical Resistance
Adhesion to Clean, Sound Damp Concrete
Built in Resiliency for Thermal Shock
Excellent Chemical Resistance

Application:

Inside or Outside Containment Areas
Application Instruction
1. Remove all existing coating.
2. Mechanically clean (sandblast) walls and floors to remove all oils and contaminants.
3. Repair all cracks and voids to floors and walls with acid proof cement.
4. Apply seal coat of Flex-Guard 250 sealer.
5. Embed the polyester mat into the sealer and wet out with another coat of Flex-Guard 250 Sealer.
6. After Flex-Guard 250 has set, apply a final coat of Flex-Guard 250 sealer to give a finished total thickness of approximately 1/8".
7. Caulk around all tank bottoms and pad as well as any piping that is imbedded into the concrete.
