Description

Product Overview F-71 combines a proprietary blend of polyaspartic resins with aliphatic hardeners to create an intermediate speed, clear polyaspartic. F-71 is an 83% solids, low odor, low viscosity polyaspartic that provides easy application on with a moderately fast dry me. It will not yellow or chalk over me and provides a great, high gloss finish with as li le as 6 mils WFT.

Use:F-71 is primarily used as a clear topcoat due to its unsurpassed UV and abrasion resistance. It can be applied to floors and walls and adheres well to many substrates including concrete, gypsum, cement board, metals and fiberglass.

Limitations F-71 is designed to be applied between 6-15 mils as a topcoat for floors and 5-6 mils as a topcoat on walls. Ideal application on temperatures to be between 60-80°F and 60% RH or less. Cooler temperatures will increase cure times. Warmer temperatures will decrease working and cure times.

F‑71 offers a high‑performance, UV‑ and abrasion‑resistant clear topcoat with fast dry times, excellent adhesion, and a durable high‑gloss finish.

Key Performance Benefits

• High Gloss Finish: Delivers a 90+ gloss at 60° angle with as little as 6 mils wet film thickness (WFT).
• Durability: Unsurpassed UV and abrasion resistance, making it ideal for long‑term protection.
• No Yellowing or Chalking: Maintains clarity and appearance over time.
• Fast Dry Time: Dry to touch in 2–4 hours, through dry in 5–6 hours, and light use in 14–16 hours.
• Full Cure: Reaches full cure in about 7 days.
• Hardness: Shore hardness ~18 at 24 hours, increasing to ~50 at 7 days.

Application Advantages

• Easy Application: Low viscosity (83% solids) and 1:1 liquid mix ratio make it simple to apply with standard equipment.
• Versatile Substrates: Adheres well to concrete, gypsum, cement board, metals, and fiberglass.
• Flexible Use: Suitable for both floors and walls as a clear topcoat.
• Low VOC: VOC content of 165 g/L, meeting environmental standards.

Practical Benefits for Installers

• Moderate Speed: Intermediate cure rate between fast‑ and slow‑curing polyaspartics, balancing speed and performance.
• Low Odor: Especially in the LV variant, making it suitable for indoor or sensitive environments.
• Efficient Coating: Can be recoated within 24 hours for multi‑coat projects.
