miragestalker Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 (edited) Found this at my local B&B Hardware. I will be buying some soon as they get gloss in. Looks promising. Maybe some of you experts can check out the MSDS and brochure to see if its up to snuff. ZAR Ultra Max "ULTRA Max is an environmentally safe, revolutionary dual drying polyurethane. It dries by coalescing & oxygen cross-linking for a harder “through cure.”" Right now, Ive been working with a lesser ZAR polyurethane that I already had as a sealer and ETEX for the final clear coat. I might try this stuff a the sealer and final clear coat. I used a nail to scratch the coated sample they had on the hardware shelf and I had a hard time scratching it. /bing Edited December 4, 2009 by miragestalker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayburnGuy Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 Hey Bing, Do you know if it's waterproof? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miragestalker Posted December 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 (edited) Hey Bing, Do you know if it's waterproof? Good question. I didnt bother to check as I have never seen a polyurethane clear coat that wasnt. The usual literature on water based polyurethane floors coatings Ive read recommend soap and water for cleaning. But I will before I make a purchase. Another interesting note, this stuff is not billed as "water based" but "water borne" I also found some pro grade polyU for bowling alleys I didn't to mess with it as it has a higher level of cautionary literature Thanks!

RayburnGuy Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 Was just wondering as a lot of these coatings are listed as "interior" coatings and there seems to be a difference in water contact and being waterproof. Keep us informed as to what you find out. RG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
