THANK YOU

ULTRASEAL ADHESIVE - Seals and adheres rubber mats. It is a two component elastometric flexible polyurethane sealant which forms a tough, highly flexible and abrasive resistant seal. Formulated specifically to seal mat seams and edge openings, it has excellent adhesion and stops permeation of moisture and contaminants, increases health and safety as well as eliminates subsurface respiratory toxins.

Ultraseal is a two-part urethane elastomeric sealant with rapid cure and superior sealing properties when applied to a variety of materials.

   - Stabilized against jet fuel, hydraulic fluid, acids, salts, alkalis and ultraviolet degradation. Fed. Spec. SS-SS-00200E.

   - High elongation (325%) assures seal of joints when mat sections expand and contract with weather changes.

   - User friendly. Individual components are color coded for ease of mixing. Timing

MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
ULTRASEAL ADHESIVE is supplied in convenient two and ten gallon kits. The two or ten gallon kits consist of:
               PART A (Black Liquid)       1 gallon can or 5 gallon can
               PART B (Viscous Liquid)   1 gallon can or 5 gallon can
 

     I. Remove sealing rings from all one gallon cans using a hand-held can opener.
    2. Pour equal amounts by volume of Part B into equal amounts by volume of Part A. Mix
        with electric or air drill and jiffy mixer until evenly mixed.
    3. Carefully scrape down sides and bottom of container using a flat spatula.
    4. Mix again for thirty seconds.
    5. Apply ULTRASEAL ADHESIVE with a notched trowel (held at 60° to 80° angle) or a         squeegee; or for sealing seams, pour mixture into disposable dispenser's (suggest heavy duty zipper freezer bags, one or two gallon size).
    6. ULTRASEAL ADHESIVE initially is very low viscosity; however, it soon attains a creamy gel-Iike consistency and is ready for application.
 

Each batch has a twenty to thirty minute working life, depending on the ambient temperature.
 

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

ULTRASEAL ADHESIVE is a two component urethane sealant provided in "Do It Yourself' kit form. It is formulated at a 1 to 1 ratio and is the recommended sealant for adhering rubber pavers, rubber mats, and Tennis Shoe Flooring. ULTRASEAL ADHESIVE provides a sealed flooring and wall system which is easily cleaned, disinfected, and sanitized. A variety of colors are available.

PREPARE THE SURFACE
Ill-prepared surfaces prevent proper bonding of the adhesive and can result in project failure.
Remove all dirt, grease, wax, oil, and mat release from surfaces. Newly poured concrete must
cure for a minimum of21 days. Newly laid blacktop should be in good condition and structurally
sound. Paint, concrete sealers, and curing agents must be removed or thoroughly sanded prior to installation. Excessive moisture in concrete or oil in blacktop will prevent adhesion of
ULTRASEAL ADHESIVE to the subsurface. Regardless of the surface used, it must be clean, dry, and structurally sound.
 

Rubber pads, mats and pavers often has a mold release agent on the product's surface. which inhibits ULTRASEAL ADHESIVE from being able to bond properly. The following procedure is recommended to correct this situation:
     1. Abraid the surface of the pad using an electric drill and wire brush.
     2. Clean surface thoroughly using Toluene to remove any oils and powdered rubber .
.    3. Apply Ultraseal to the prepared area.
.    4. Allow to cure at least 12 hours before allowing traffic on pads.

PLEASE NOTE:  FOR BEST ADHESION, ULTRASEAL ADHESIVE SHOULD NOT BE APPLIED ON DAMP SURFACES, ON UNCLEAN SURFACES, OR UNDER EXCESSIVELY HUMID CONDITIONS. ALL OF THE MAT SURFACES SHOULD BE CLEAN AND FREE OF MAT RELEASE AGENT, THE PRESENCE OF WHICH IS A NORMAL PART OF THE MAT MANUFACTURING PROCESS,  AND PREFERABLY HAVE BEEN SCUFF SANDED BEFORE ULTRASEAL ADHESIVE IS APPLIED.

Ideally, maintain ULTRASEAL ADHESIVE, the sub-surface, and the mats at 60 degree Fahrenheit or higher for 24 hours before, during, and after installation. Apply ULTRASEAL ADHESIVE with a notched trowel (held at 60 to 80 degree angle), a brush, a roller, or a disposable dispenser. Wear rubber gloves to keep hands clean and prevent possible skin irritation. Use masking tape to cover areas that may accidentally come in contact with adhesive. (An adhesion test patch is strongly recommended). Prepare no more ULTRASEAL ADHESIVE than needed for the first mat until you have a sense of how quickly the adhesive sets up. Set the first mat at the comer, placing the mat onto the adhesive with a gentle motion. If adhering the mats and sealing the seams, arrange the mats with a minimum of 3/8" to 1/2" space on each side adjacent to each mat and wall. If adhering mats to subsurface only, place first mat corner on marked layout line into ULTRASEAL ADHESIVE and continue butting each succeeding mat against mat or wall. Remove excess adhesive from between mats. Immediately clean off any ULTRASEAL ADHESIVE sealant that oozes onto top of mat or paver
surface using Toluene or M.E.K. solvent. Put weight on any mat area not flat or failing to make
contact with subsurface until ULTRASEAL ADHESIVE cures. (Note: Sand bags work well for this purpose on sloped areas).
 

FINISH THE INSTALLATION
Allow at least 24 hours for the ULTRASEAL ADHESIVE adhesive to properly cure. If the area must be used, cover it with a loose piece of plywood before walking on the floor. To obtain a seamless, even mat surface, fill any wall seams or open mat seams with ULTRASEAL ADHESIVE using a disposable dispenser. Material comes out of dispenser readily and is self leveling. Fill to an even surface between mats and between mats and walls. The seamless sealant, ULTRASEAL ADHESIVE is a two-part urethane elastomeric product with rapid
cure and superior sealing and adhesion properties. ULTRASEAL ADHESIVE is stabilized against acids, salts, and alkalis. High elongation (325%) assures seal and adhesion
when mat sections expand and contract with weather changes. Individual components are color coded for ease of mixing. All seams, including wall seams, are sealed using disposable dispensers (Ziploc or similar freezer bags, 1 or 2 gallon size).

INSTALLATION WITHOUT FASTENING TO A BASE FLOOR SURF
To install on compacted surfaces, the surface should be compacted to at least 90% compaction, level, without any holes, smooth, and even. A mat installation is only as good as the surface on which it is installed. Clean all edges and a minimum of 6" of the underneath side of the mats with Toluene. (For best adhesion, it is also preferable if these areas are also scuff sanded to a suede like texture, before setting on adhesive). Lay a strip of textile matting or 6 mil plastic under all seam areas. Apply an even application of ULTRASEAL ADHESIVE on the textile matting, or plastic, where the first mat is to be installed. If sealing seams, install all mats l/2" from walls, posts, drains, etc., and other mats. Then refer to "FINISH THE INSTALLATION".
