SURFACE PREPARATION
Test First:
Test first on a small inconspicuous area to determine suitability and if desired results are achievable with this product
on your specific surface.
Clean Surface:
Surface should be thoroughly cleaned and prepared with Trident’s cleaners. It should be free of oil, dust, loose
material, and previously applied sealer other than Trident’s Cyclone sealer. Kill and remove growth of any mold, mildew, fungus
or algae. Thoroughly rinse all cleaner residue prior to sealing.
Allow surface to dry for a minimum of 24 hours
after cleaning and/or rain before joint sand installation or sealer application.
Joint Stabilization Preparation:
Paver joints should be no more than 3/4” wide and filled with dry correctly graded joint sand that
meets ASTM C144 standard. Compact surface with vibratory roller or compactor after sweeping sand into joints to minimize air
voids. Top level of sand should be 1/8” below the bottom of chamfer edge or on non-chamfered surfaces 1/8” down from top of
surface.
Prior to sealing, use a
leaf blower
to remove dust, debris and fine sand particles
from the surface.
Cover/Protect
nearby landscape, vehicles and buildings from overspray during application.
APPLICATION CONDITIONS
Apply when day and night temperatures are between 40°F - 95°F.
Allow surface to dry for a minimum of 24 hours after cleaning and/or rain before sealer application.
Avoid windy conditions to keep sealer spray from drifting.
NO pre-blending or mixing required.
DO NOT DILUTE.
Excessive applications can cause surface to become slippery. Some surfaces may require an anti-slip additive to increase friction.
APPLICATION TOOLS
Low pressure, high volume sprayer such as an airless sprayer or hand held pump-up sprayer
Slit foam roller
Foam squeegee for joint stabilization
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
Cyclone is designed for a one-coat application but if desired an additional light spray coat can be applied only after the first
application has dried to the touch.
Spray & Back Roll Application (no joint stabilization):
To apply sealer, hold sprayer nozzle perpendicular to the surface, spray and overlap each spray pass.
Before product dries
, back roll with a foam roller to eliminate any pooling and to even out sealer.
Flood Coat & Squeegee Application for Joint Stabilization:
Follow coverage guidelines for joint stabilization.
Spray sealer to flood joints ensuring proper sand penetration for stabilization.
Use a foam squeegee to direct excess sealer into the joints. On an uneven surface, it is recommended to then back roll with a foam
roller to even out the sealer and eliminate pooling.
DRY TIME
Surface will be dry to the touch in 60 minutes assuming 65-85°F. Low surface or air temperature will extend dry times.
Protect the surface from dust, rain, condensation, and traffic while drying.
Area can be open to foot & vehicular traffic in 24 hours depending on site conditions.
