PetroGuard®

PetroGuard® is a sealer used between a sea coat and contaminated pavement. It is used over crankcase oil and grease spots and hairline cracks. PetroGuard® is designed to attach and permanently bond to surfaces that have been scraped and/or cleaned of petroleum based chemical build up.

ADVANTAGES:

Tenaciously bonds to most surfaces
Inhibits bleed thru of oil contaminates
Rapid Curing—traffic ready in minutes under normal sealing temperatures.
May be installed as a stand alone surfacer with medium term longevity.
High water and skid resistance
Odorless.
Low shrinkage after application

USES:

As a primer and sealer over prepared traffic surfaces contaminated by vehicle and equipment drippings.
As a bridging membrane for small cracks in pavement.

APPLICATION:

Oil and Grease Spots—Thoroughly remove by use of scraper, wire brush, torch, power washer, all surface contaminants such as build up of old paint, drive train oil and/or grease deposits from asphalt pavement to be sealed with PetroGuard®. Do not use hydrocarbon solvents to clean the surface.


Brush, roll or spray a thin coat of PetroGuard® over the entire prepared to a distance of at least two inches beyond the surface stain. Allow to fully cure before proceeding with the application of any other top surfacing such as SteelGuard®.

Asphalt Pavement Micro-fissuring—Assure that all loose material has been removed to a sound, uncontaminated surface. Brush, roll or spray an approximate 25 mils (1.5 gallon/100 square feet), wet film thick application of the PetroGuard over the fissured area. Wait for it to turn from purple to deep purple then apply a second film of the same approximate thickness. This is necessary to achieve optimal PetroGuard® fissure blocking of expansion and contraction. Cracks wider than 1/16 of an inch should be filled with a crack sealer prior to coating with PetroGuard®.

Immediately clean implements, including hoses with cool water after application. PetroGuard® may crosslink if left standing in sun exposed spray hoses.

SHELF LIFE: PetroGuard® may be stored for up to 12 months.

STORAGE AND HANDLING:

Keep out of reach of children.
Do not allow to freeze prior to application.
Do not thin or mix with any other products.
Do not store near heat or open flame.
Avoid prolonged skin contact and breathing of vapor.
Keep containers tightly sealed when not in use.
Do not take internally. Do not induce vomiting if swallowed—call a physician immediately.

PetroGuard® is available in 5 gallon pails and 54 gallon drums.
