Protecta-kote is a unique, advanced formula polyurethane anti-slip paint, incorporating rubber granules to give a totally flexible anti-slip (non-slip) finish that will not flake, chip or peel. With no mixing or blending required, it can be easily applied to almost any surface including metal, concrete, wood, fibreglass, plastic and rubber leaving an attractive textured anti-slip finish that is resistant to impacts.
A 1 Litre tin will cover approximately 1.5 sq metres (15 sq feet) with the recommended two coats.
To get an even finish with Protectakote it should be applied with a textured roller these are available in our accessories/solvents section.
The new UVR version has all the same benefits as standard Protectakote but is 50% stronger, faster drying and has significantly greater resistance to dis-colouration.
Quick Guide to Application - Please visit the website or contact us for more information. when applying to areas larger than 15 m2 a test patch should be applied.
Painted Surfaces
Sound painted surfaces should be lightly abraded to remove the gloss, clean with CIF household cream cleaner, rinsed and allowed to dry completely.
Ceramic Tiles, Marble, Terrazo, Glass
Surface should be thoroughly cleaned & rinsed to leave a water break free surface. Protectakote Clear Primer Treatment applied & overcoated after approx 1 hour.
Aluminium
Lightly abrade the surface, clean, apply Protectakote Clear Primer Treatment & then overcoat with Protectakote.
Concrete
New concrete should be minimum of 6-8 weeks old, surface should be clean & dry, first coat diluted 10% with Xylene. Concrete subject to rising damp or in high wear areas should be primed with Duraprime first. Smooth, shiny concrete (power floated) requires etching or abrading first. Any crumbly surface layer will have to be removed first with a stiff broom and concrete etch cleaner.
Fibreglass
Abrade the surface to remove all gloss, clean with CIF cream cleaner, rinse and allow to dry.
Well weathered fibreglass just needs cleaning.
Ferrous metal
Un-primed: Abrade the surface prior to painting, ensuring any loose rust is removed, surface should be cleaned with Xylene and allowed to dry prior to painting.
Primed: Protectakote adheres well to primed metal such as red oxide.
Galvanised: Use Protectakote Clear Primer Treatment prior to applying Protectakote. Follow instructions
Non ferrous metal
Follow Protectakote Clear Primer Treatment instructions prior to overpainting with Protecta-Kote.
Plastic (Not Polyethylene)
Lightly abrade the surface. Clean with Cif, rinse with clean water and allow to dry.
Rubber
Abrade the surface, clean with Cif, rinse with clean water and allow to dry.
Timber
Lightly abrade to fresh wood, clean with Xylene dampened cloth, allow to dry thoroughly. With treated timber such as decking the first coat should be diluted by 10% with Xylene.
Ply
Marine Ply: Treat as Timber. Standard & waterproof ply should be sealed with dilute PVA and allowed to dry before application. Where a waterproof barrier is required Duraprime can be used.
