USES

Running tracks, walking paths, and other similar athletic & recreational applications.

COLOR

White, Clear when dry.

SURFACE PREPARATION

Asphalt: New asphalt surfaces must cure a minimum of 14 days, 30 days recommended, prior to application.

Pavement surface must be cleaned entirely and free from dirt, debris, and loose materials. Repair of pavement surface defects, depressions, and cracks should be complete prior to application of coatings.

Concrete: New concrete surfaces must cure 28 days prior to application. Concrete surface should have a medium broom finish, or similar roughened texture. Etch surface with phosphoric or muriatic acid and rinse thoroughly with water, to create an ideal chemical bond. Allow surface to dry completely before application of surface repair products or coatings.

MIXING PROCEDURES

Dilute TrackMaster Pro-Lock 2 parts material to 1 part water & mix well to ensure a complete and homogeneous mixture.

APPLICATION

Apply TrackMaster Pro-Lock by spray method, using a dual diaphragm pumping system (80/30 or 80/40 spray tips and spray wand). Make sure that all of the rubber granules are evenly & completely coated to ensure encapsulation of the rubber layers. The average ratio of TrackMaster Pro-Lock binder to rubber shall be 1 gallon of concentrated/undiluted binder to 18 lbs. of 1 to 4 mm rubber granules.

Black Track: 3/8” thickness or 9.5MM [10.5 lbs/SY Rubber Granules & .60 gals/SY of Pro-Lock] Black Track: 1/2” thickness or 12.5MM [14 lbs/SY Rubber Granules & .75 gals/SY of Pro-Lock] Colored Track: 1/8” minimum thickness or 3.2MM of EPDM colored granules (1-4 mm) & .21 gals/SY of Pro- Lock]

Minimum recommended layers of black rubber and Pro- Lock is 3. If coloring track, minimum number layers of colored EPDM rubber & Pro-Lock is 2.

*SportMaster Black Dispersion or ColorPlus Pigments can be added in the final coat of binder to enhance the deep black or colored appearance of the running track surface, and extend the UV protection of the binder. Up to 5 gallons of Black Dispersion/ColorPlus can be added to 275-gallons of TrackMaster Pro-Lock.

IMPORTANT

Surface and air temperatures must be above 50°F (10°C) during application and for at least 24 hours after application. Stir before using. Do not apply when rain is imminent or forecast. Keep from freezing. Close container when not in use. Avoid leaving containers in full sun during very hot conditions and remove any dried skins that may have formed on the surface in drums or totes before mixing and application.

DRYING TIME

The coating will be milky white when wet and clear when dry. Typically, it takes 5 to 6 hours for drying, depending on the temperature and weather conditions.

CAUTIONS

Do not store in direct sunlight or where temperatures exceed 100°F. Do not apply if rain is imminent or forecast. Keep from freezing. Close container when not in use. Refer to product Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for additional safety information and precautions.
