Sport Yard Acrylic Coat- Quito

Description

Latex-ite  Aggregate filled acrylic colour is a non-fading, weather – proof, 100% acrylic coating for use  on plant mix asphalt, emulsified asphalt and suitable concrete surfaces. Latex-ite protects the underlying surface from weather and climactic conditions and is resistant to fuels, oils alkalies and solvents. Made of acrylic resins, mineral fillers, colorfast pigments and silica aggregate, the latex-ite system provides a tough, durable surface of uniform texture that remains flexible. Designed for use on tennis courts, basketball courts*, recreational areas and various other usages. Unlike other acrylic surfacing systems, each coat of latex-ite aggregate filled acrylic colour is fully pigmented, resulting richer, longer lasting, in depth color.
* Four applications recommended in key areas.

Application

Refer to the Court Surface Guidelines for surface preparation procedures. The Latex-ite Acrylic Color System is applied in three separate applications and is accomplished by use of a 24" to 48" long, ftexible, 50 to 70 durometer. rubber squeegee of good quality and in good condition. The first two coats are filler coats. The first coat will be applied in a perpendicular direction to the playing net.
The second coat and finish coat will be applied parallel with playing net.
Each application must thoroughly dehydrate before application of succeeding coat. The entire surface shall be checked for ridges and imperfections after each filler coat and scraped smooth and cleaned of all loose debri.
Care must be taken to insure a smooth and uniform texture, tree from ridges and tool marks, as the final coat is not to be scraped. An economy color system, that can be applied to existing courts in good condition, would consist of one filler coat and one finish coat. The application method would remain the same.
