NeverStrip Vinyl Seal
21st Century Micron Floor Coating
NeverStrip Vinyl Seal is an easy to apply and maintain, sustainable, fast drying, low to no odor, durable, flooring treatment for resilient flooring. It is not an acrylic floor finish. Vinyl Seal is based on an inorganic, micron-based technology, which provides a longer life between recoats, less burnishing, less recoating and elimination of ongoing stripping.
Vinyl Seal can be applied to any resilient flooring including: vinyl composition tile (VCT), sheet vinyl, luxury vinyl tile (LVT), rubber and linoleum. Vinyl Seal may be applied onto other coatings including NeverStrip Gloss, Satin, Matte and Colour (water-based urethanes) and NeverStrip UV Gloss and UV Satin (100% solids UV cured urethane coatings).
Vinyl Seal forms an extraordinary clear, micron thin film, which does not yellow, peel, blister or flake. The product has outstanding stain, scratch and abrasion resistance for commercial applications, while offering an attractive coefficient of friction, wet or dry. Sheens can be maintained from low, medium to higher gloss.
Vinyl Seal may be applied on top of NeverStrip Micron Primer to achieve an enhanced appearance and sheen

- Apply with a high quality, looped microfiber pad.
- Wet the microfiber pad with product (not soaked or dry).
- Vinyl Seal can be applied multiple ways, as follows:
1)Squirt product onto a microfiber pad and spread the product evenly over 1.62m2 section (180cm x 90cm)
2) Squirt product onto the floor in a ribbon the width of the section to be coated and then spread the product evenly or;
3) Using a backpack applicator apply a bead across the section to be coated and then evenly spread with the microfiber pad.

pad that drags may introduce streaking or a less desired appearance.
Coverage per coat per gallon depends on factors including:
1) porosity of the floor, and 2) the person applying the product. Coverage 98 to 123 m2/Lt per application. Vinyl Seal naturally provides a medium or satin sheen.
Vinyl Seal naturally provides a medium or satin sheen.
Burnishing
Burnishing will enhance the sheen. The use of NeverStrip Micron Primer below Vinyl Seal will achieve a higher sheen. [See NeverStrip Micron Primer Product Data Sheet for details
on the use of NeverStrip Micron Primer] Burnishing after each application will produce a higher sheen. A higher speed burnisher will produce more gloss. A propane burnisher can
be used for best results.
Buffing Vinyl Seal with a 175-rpm floor machine will enhance the sheen but not as much as a higher speed burnisher.
Burnishing pad choice is largely a personal preference. Success is achieved with: 3M Tan and 3M Aqua pads; soft white, hogs hair and combo pads.
The highest gloss is achieved by applying product on top of an existing higher sheen. Options to achieve higher gloss include:
1) first apply two coats of NeverStrip Micron Primer, burnish with a 3M purple pad and Aqua pad and then apply two coats of Vinyl Seal burnishing after each application and
2) apply NeverStrip Vinyl Seal on top of NeverStrip Gloss or NeverStrip UV Gloss coatings.
Clean Up
Clean skin with soap and water. Tools and equipment should be cleaned with xylene or lacquer thinner.
