Top Tips for MOLECULE [SRS]

  1. Molecule [SRS] should be installed within an ambient and surface temperature range of 40°- 90° F (4.4-32.2 C). Shaded, low sunlight, or colder areas will lengthen cure times. Conversely, direct sun, warmer areas will shorten cure times. Avoid temperatures at or below freezing or above 100° F (0-38 C) for application, curing phase, or storage.
  2. Molecule [SRS] is a water-based, fluoropolymer, penetrating sealer. The curing phase is dependent upon complete evaporation of the water component (usually 4-12 hours in optimal) daytime conditions).
  3. Apply Molecule [DS] in one single application coat. Do not divide recommended application rates into multiple coats. Always consult manufacturer coverage rate guidelines, or contact our Technical Support desk by phone 877-356-2250, or by email Info@TechniSoil.com.
  4. Do not apply Molecule [SRS] within a minimum of 24 hours before or after rainfall. In excessively wet conditions, allow project area to dry completely before application.
  5. Clean driveway thoroughly before applying. Molecule [SRS] should not be applied over the top of other sealers, stains, efflorescence, or dirt as it may affect adhesion, cure, & finished aesthetic.

Preparation

  • Always perform a test section using recommended installation methods to confirm the suitability of materials and project conditions!
  • Remove all existing sealers, stains, dirt, efflorescence, & debris with an environmentally safe cleaning agent before applying Molecule [DS].
  • The surface must be completely clean and dry before application.
  • Do not apply in wet conditions. Plan a minimum 24-hour time window free of rainfall for the application and curing phase.
  • Coverage rates may vary based on surface porosity, joint width, depth, & material.
  • Keep the project area free from any moisture, such as rain or irrigation sprinklers, vehicular traffic, or otherwise, until fully cured (4-12 hours in optimal daytime conditions).

Installation of MOLECULE [SRS]

  • For best results, thoroughly remove any residual sand, dust or aggregates from the surface using a leaf blower or broom before applying Molecule [SRS].
  • Mask or shield any adjacent surfaces in case of overspray or accidental application.
  • Pour contents of Molecule [SRS] bottle into a 1-5 gallon (3.8-19 litre) capacity handheld or backpack pump sprayer.
  • Carefully plan application process to avoid under or over application and ‘painting into a corner’.
  • Visually map out sections of application area according to recommended coverage rate to ensure proper coverage.

Cure Times for MOLECULE [SRS]

  • Keep treated project areas free of any moisture such as rain or irrigation sprinklers, foot traffic, or otherwise until fully cured (usually 4-12 hours in optimal conditions).

Cleanup

  • Clean all tools immediately after use by simply rinsing tools with water and a soft bristle brush.
  • In case of accidental sealer spill onto tools, equipment, or adjacent surfaces, clean immediately with soap and water as needed.
  • For dried sealer, use a 1:1 acetone/water mixture and a brush to scrub affected areas. Use caution; acetone will remove paint from surfaces.

Storage of MOLECULE [SRS]

Store unused Molecule [SRS] with lid secured indoors and out of direct sunlight in a temperature range of 40°-90° F (4.4-32 C)

Maintenance

  • For periodic maintenance of surface sealed with Molecule [DS], use Molecule [SRS Hardscape Shampoo to clean and bolster the protectant coating.
  • Molecule [DS] maintenance coats can be applied at the recommended application rates at any time, usually 6-24 months after initial application
