Gulf Synthetics LLC has introduced UCF-30 for resurfacing concrete and aging asphalt. The tintable coating allows contractors to resurface existing indoor and outdoor living areas.
UCF-30 is a water-based polymer coating that fills cracks and creates a durable, stain- and slip-resistant walking surface. The coating can be tinted to any color by adding two quarts of exterior latex paint to the kit. It is ideal for patios, porches, pool decks, sidewalks, driveways, concrete floors and docks.
UCF-30 can be applied with a brush or roller and everything cleans up with water. It offers a high build and dries much faster than paint. UCF-30 costs the contractor about $1 per square foot.
An added advantage of UCF-30 is its ability to adhere to aging asphalt. For a fraction of the cost to resurface with asphalt, old asphalt surfaces can be decoratively finished and transformed into attractive outdoor multipurpose spaces.
UCF-30 also protects consumers from coal tar, a harmful surfacing agent used on asphalt. UCF-30 is a benign coating that encapsulates coal tar, protecting the environment from coal tar leachate.
