Technical Data & Application Guide
(TUE Epoxy Primer + HPP Polyaspartic Topcoat)

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The ResinTech Pool Deck Coating System is a high-performance, slip-resistant exterior coating system for concrete surfaces.
It combines ResinTech TUE or TUE-FC epoxy primer for deep adhesion with a ResinTech HPP UV-stable polyaspartic topcoat that can be pigmented and broadcast with #70 silica sand to create a long-lasting, safe, and attractive finish.

Unlike many aggressive anti-slip systems, this surface provides excellent traction while remaining comfortable on bare feet — ideal for pool decks, patios, and other outdoor recreational areas.

TYPICAL USES

  • Pool decks — slip-resistant yet barefoot-friendly

  • Patios, walkways, balconies, terraces

  • Outdoor recreational and entertainment areas

  • Any exterior concrete surface needing weather, UV, and chemical resistance

FEATURES & BENEFITS

  • Deep concrete adhesion with ResinTech TUE/TUE-FC primer

  • UV-stable, chemical-resistant polyaspartic topcoat (HPP)

  • Barefoot-friendly slip resistance with #70 silica sand

  • Accepts integral pigmentation for decorative color finish

  • Fast return to service with TUE-FC

  • Waterproof and easy to maintain

  • Suitable for harsh outdoor environments & pool chemicals

SURFACE PREPARATION

  • Concrete must be sound, dry, and fully cured (28 days minimum).

  • Profile: ICRI CSP-3 to CSP-4 via diamond grinding or shot blasting.

  • Remove oil, grease, coatings, curing agents, laitance, sealers, and contaminants.

  • Ensure moisture content <4% or ≤3 lbs/1,000 sq.ft/24 hr (ASTM F1869).

  • Repair cracks/joints with Dymonic® 100 urethane caulking.

  • Patch spalls and damaged areas with TUE + silica sand epoxy mortar or fast-set patch materials (e.g., Mapei Quick Patch).

  • Vacuum and clean thoroughly before coating.

MIXING & APPLICATION

Primer — ResinTech TUE / TUE-FC

  • Pre-mix Part A; add Part B; mix 2–3 min with low-speed drill.

  • Coverage: ~80 sq.ft/gal (≈20 mils wet).

  • Apply with squeegee & backroll.

  • Cure:

    • TUE: overnight @18–20 °C.

    • TUE-FC: recoat in 1–2 hrs @20 °C.

Topcoat — ResinTech HPP (Polyaspartic)

  • Pre-mix Part A; if color desired, add ResinTech Pigment Pack to Part A and mix thoroughly before adding Part B.

  • Add Part B, mix 2–3 min until uniform.

  • Coverage: 80–100 sq.ft/gal.

  • While wet, broadcast #70 silica sand to full rejection (≈0.75–1.25 lbs/sq.ft).

  • Cure: 3–4 hrs @18 °C. Sweep/vacuum excess sand.

  • Light traffic after 24 hrs; full service after 48–72 hrs.
