Mapei Mapefloor Finish 58W

Mapei Mapefloor Finish 58W is a two-component, aliphatic polyurethane coating product in water dispersion with a matt, transparent or coloured finish.

Best Uses

Mapefloor Finish 58 W is an ideal finishing product for Mapefloor System and Ultratop System toppings. It improves their resistance to wear and to scratches while
limiting dirt pick-up and making routine cleaning and maintenance operations simpler. Suitable as a matt, transparent or coloured finish on resin floors such as Mapefloor System 33, Mapefloor System 53 and Mapefloor Comfort Systems. Also suitable as a matt transparent or coloured finish on self-levelling floors made using Ultratop or Ultratop Living, but only if coated beforehand with Mapefloor Finish 52 W.

When hardened, Mapefloor Finish 58 W improves the mechanical characteristics and in particular provides higher resistance to abrasion and to scratches. Mapefloor Finish 58 W adheres well to smooth, non-porous resin substrates. Flooring treated with Mapefloor Finish 58 W is also resistant to aggressive chemicals, such as medium concentrated acids and base substances, as well as to mineral oils.

• High resistance to abrasion and to scratches
• Odourless
• Resistant to ultra-violet rays, non yellowing
• Resistant to aggressive chemicals and mineral oils
• Easy to apply
• Mapefloor Finish 58W is resistant to UV rays. The transparent version, however, does not act as a filter for UV rays and offers no protection to substrates from this type of light.

Application

Do not apply more than 100 g/m2 of the product per coat. Larger quantities could cause defects in the coating. Only apply Mapefloor Finish 58 W on Ultratop or Ultratop Living if they have been coated with Mapefloor Finish 52 W beforehand. Do not apply Mapefloor Finish 58 W on dusty, crumbling or weak substrates. Do not apply Mapefloor Finish 58 W on wet surfaces or on surfaces with oil or grease stains. Only apply Mapefloor Finish 58 W if the temperature of the substrate is at
least 3°C higher than the dew-point temperature.

For Resin Coatings: Mapefloor Finish 58 W may be applied on both new and old resin coatings. If the product is applied on new resin coatings, they must be hard, dry and have been applied for no more than 24 hours previously. If more than 24 hours have passed, resin coatings must be abraded with a singlehead sander with 200-300 grade sandpaper or a fine-grained abrasive pad to guarantee adhesion of the product. If Mapefloor Finish 58 W is applied on old resin coatings, on the other hand, they must be perfectly clean and free of all traces of oil, grease and/or all other contaminants. Always abrade the entire surface to guarantee good adhesion between the product and the substrate. Coloured versions of Mapefloor Finish 58 W offer better cover for scratch marks caused by sanding.

Apply 1 or 2 coats of Mapefloor Finish 58 W with a short-piled roller (such as mohair) or by airless spray on resin substrates, Ultratop or Ultratop Living after applying a coat of Mapefloor Finish 52 W. When applying with a roller, go in opposite directions with each successive coat. At least 2 coats of Mapefloor Finish 58 W should be applied when using the coloured version. If the time between each coat exceeds the recommended waiting time in the table, lightly sand the surface of the first coat before applying the next one.
