SPEKTRA Concrete Protect is a water-based acrylic paint for concrete used for both the decoration and protection of exterior and interior concrete surfaces. It is used for painting vertical and low-wear floor areas, such as concrete floors in basements and boiler rooms, plinths, stairways and other external concrete surfaces. SPEKTRA Concrete Protect is available in white and three standard shades, and HGMIX tinting is also available based on a white and a transparent base.

The surface must be cleaned of dust, loose particles, oils, grease and other impurities. We recommend cleaning with water pressure washing or steam. Concrete surfaces deeply soaked with grease and oil often cannot be cleaned satisfactorily. We therefore recommend removing and renovating them. Old coatings that have weak adhesion and are loose should be removed completely. Old coatings that have good adhesion should be sanded slightly before painting. Uneven surfaces and surface damages are to be smoothed with a suitable levelling compound. In the event that the concrete is damaged to the very armature, it should be removed. The armature should be blast cleaned until shiny and protected with a high-quality corrosion protection coating. Damaged areas should be filled using a suitable levelling compound. New concrete surfaces must be at least one month old before the first painting. Before painting, the surface must be fully cured, thoroughly dried, and protected against capillary moisture penetration (hydro-insulated).
