ACRATHANE COLORSEAL
COMMERCIAL GRADE PAINT & SEALER
ACRATHANE COLORSEAL is a premium quality, water-based, solid color sealer. Acrathane Colorseal works great for both vertical and horizontal applications because of its ability to withstand all harsh pool chemicals and heavy commercial foot traffic. With an industry leading color lifespan, it is great for areas with high UV exposure and works to disperse heat as much as possible.

SURFACE PREPARATION
- Substrate must be structurally sound and free from grease, oil, dirt, dust, sealers, water repellents and other foreign materials which may interfere with proper bonding. Surface must be completely dry prior to COLORSEAL application.
- Multicoat KRETE KOTE, TOP COAT or other types of overlay materials must be allowed to set up and cure for at least 24 to 48 hours before COLORSEAL application. New concrete should be allowed to cure for a minimum of 20 days and be free from curing compounds, release agents if any, and other water repellent materials which may prevent proper bonding. You may use VAPOR SHIELD as a curing accelerator for green concrete, which would reduce the window from 20 days, to 7 days. Do not use on treated lumber.
MIXING
- First Coat – Mix COLORSEAL to uniformity with slow speed mixer. With continuous mixing add clean water in ratio of 1 part water to 3 parts COLORSEAL. This promotes a strong bond into the substrate and saves cost on materials.
- Second Coat – Mix COLORSEAL to uniformity with slow speed mixer.
(Note: Most paints are created as “tint bases” then tinted to the desired color when ordered. This process is accurate to 1/48th of an ounce of any colored tint. Therefore, If more than 1 container of COLORSEAL is being used for a job it is recommended to combine your paint from different buckets into a larger container to ensure a uniform shade across the entire job. This practice is called “boxing the paint”
APPLICATION
METHODS
- Paint Brush
- 1/2″ Nap Roller (for smooth surfaces)

WARRANTY SHEET >
Multicoat Corporation offers a special 5-year Limited Materials Warranty to Trained and Certified Applicators. This Limited Warranty (effective upon date of purchase) protects the Applicator against delamination problems with all Multicoat systems, as well as water intrusion of Multicoat’s Waterproofing System, provided:
1. Multicoat system has been properly applied by a certified applicator.
2. Problem is determined to be due to defect of Multicoat Corporation’s products.
3. Applicator has prepared and filed the required Warranty Information Form(s) with Multicoat Products, Inc. covering the specific customer job(s).
NOTE:
Warranty is not applicable if there is movement or cracking of the underlying base and/or the weight bearing cement covering of the waterproofing membrane.
Failure to adhere to good construction and workmanship practices based on industry standard construction, means, methods, sequences and techniques could result in delamination, de-bonding and water intrusion for which Multicoat will not be responsible.
The end user must look to the Certified Applicator for satisfaction if any problem develops with the Multicoat system covered by the warranty. Multicoat suggests that the customer:
1. Use only a licensed contractor in good standing (fully bonded).
2. Make certain that the applicator has been certified by Multicoat, prior to work
commencing or certification while on the job. A simple phone call to Multicoat is sufficient to determine if an applicator is certified and if such certification is in
good standing.
In the event that it is determined that the Applicator failed to install the system(s) in accordance with Multicoat’s “instructions for use” or “specifications”, the warranty is void. See specific warranty information below.

Q: Can BG2000 be applied to green concrete?
A: For applications with at least one exposed side, YES. As long as it is firm to touch and cleaned of mold releases and other impurities. Things like: poured in place retaining walls, freshly built block walls, etc. are perfect applications for BG2000.
Q: Is BG2000 oil-based?
A: No, there is no asphalt emulsion in BG2000. Unlike many competitors that claim to be “water-based” but also contain petroleum byproducts, BG2000 is made from 100% Water born acrylics and contains ZERO ASPHALT EMULSION.
Q: Is BG2000 expensive?
A: No, when used in replace of lower end asphalt products consumers see a cost decrease due to its higher coverage rates, lower application time, and clean up time/ease.
Q: How do you bridge expansion joints and wall/floor 90º joints?
A: We recommend embedding a material called Polyester Stitch Bond Fabric into the first coat of BG2000 to act as a reinforcement material for high movement areas. It is an inexpensive way to ensure security and rigidity in areas that may be subject to extreme movement over time.
