For use over a multitude of substrates. Concrete, VCT, most paints and thick set epoxies. Millions of square feet successfully installed by clients and United Static Control Products world wide

ElectraGuard was originally invented for use in DOD munitions applications and first put to work for esd control at General Dynamics in 1992. Over the years it was further refined with patented advancements in structural integrity. Now? ElectraGuard Elite is exclusive to United Static Control Products. With no coating failures, loss of conductivity or wear performance issues since it's inception, ElectraGuard is a proven performer at a realistic price.

Other ESD floor paints are latex / acrylic based and may show signs of coating failure after a mere 2 years. Not so with ElectraGuard. ElectraGuard - Wear characteristics far superior to mere solvent based urethanes and latex paints, rivaling those of thick set esd epoxy flooring without the associated toxicity, disposal considerations and environmental impact.

ElectraGuard - Powerful permanent conductivity and (unlike most esd vinyl floors) is capable of handling forklift and other heavy duty industrial traffic. Leave as is for low glare matt finish or top coat with ElectraThane Sealer followed by ElectraGlaze ESD Floor Finish (the ElectraGuard Tri-Layer Full System) for a diamond like shine and ultimate wear resistance.

Application Overview

General Application Instructions

STEP 1: ElectraGuard

Prepare substrate, install grounding foil (see full instructions for details). Prepare the ElectraGuard carefully: Catalyzed ElectraGuard should be used within six hours of mixing, therefore prepare only the quantity necessary for immediate use. Add the pre-measured catalyst to epoxy base. Stir gently until the catalyst has been thoroughly mixed in (a low RPM drill may be used with a rotary mixing attachment but try to not beat air into the material). Allow the catalyzed mixture to stand 5 minutes. Utilizing a short nap roller or brush, carefully apply a thin uniform coat of catalyzed ElectraGuard around perimeter walls, doorways etc (about 6" width and try to not get any on walls ;) After perimeter of room is completed utilize short nap rollers (18" wide with long handle extensions work best) to roll a thin uniform coat through out the remainder of the area. The initial coat will cover approximately 250 to 500 ft 2 per gallon. Allow the initial coat to dry for 5-7 hours or longer and apply a second coat. Second coat coverage is approximately 500-600 ft2 per gallon. Allow the second coat to dry for 8 to 12 hours and apply a third cost. Third coat coverage is approximately 500-600 SF per gallon. Finished floors may be opened to light traffic, under normal curing conditions, after 12 hours. See full scale installation instructions for further details. Allow coats to cure for a minimum of 48 hours (good environmental airflow) or 72 hours (compromised environmental airflow) prior to proceeding to step 2 (topical coatings of Electrathane Sealer).

STEP 2: ElectraThane

Thoroughly remove loose dirt and dust cured ElectraGuard via sweeping (do not use sweeping compounds). Remove imperfections if any (such as bubbles and splatters) from ElectraGuard via light scraping followed by vacuuming. Agitate ElectraThane sealant in container prior to use, pour into clean contaminant free bucket and mop on one thin even coat using non linting synthetic finish mops. Allow coat to dry (depending on humidity and temperature) for 60 to 90 minutes before re-application of second thin coat. Two coats are or more are recommended. ElectraThane does not readily lend itself to high speed polishing but has a good as applied luster and excellent slip resistance. Allow coats to cure for a minimum of 12 hours prior to proceeding to step 3 (topical coatings of ElectraGlaze Floor Finish). See full scale installation instructions for further details.

STEP 3: ElectraGlaze

Using a clean Rayon finish mop or wax applicator, apply a minimum of one thin even coat of ElectraGlaze allowing finish to dry 2 to 4 hours prior to allowing traffic on floor. Two coats are recommended for optimum performance. Buffing is not required unless high mirror like shine is desired. Note: Avoid application during high humidity conditions, use thin coats ONLY. See full scale installation instructions for further details. The ElectraGuard Tri-Layer ESD Flooring System meets latest standard of S2020-2007 for esd conductive flooring and ANSI/ESD STM97.1-2006 resistance to ground in combination with Operator / Heel Grounders / ESD Flooring. ElectraGuard Tri-Layer meets or exceeds the requirements of Federal Specifications LF-475a and SST-312b for dimensional stability, resistance to reagents and residual indentation.

NOTE United recommends the use of soft chair casters or Titanium Mats (for hard chair casters) when rolling chairs directly over this product and all hard surface esd flooring. Soft chair casters look like hard casters but have a rubberized coating on the wheel. ElectraGuard ESD Epoxy is a thin set epoxy (approximately 3 to 10 mil thickness) much tougher and longer lasting than ESD paints.

Due to it's reduced solids count and thin set benefits ElectraGuard may exhibit slight variances in texture and color depending on the substrate of application. These variances do not affect the excellent electrical performance or wear characteristics. This product is available in gray, light gray, beige and green and as applied features a non glare matt finish. Should high shine be desired consider sealing the ElectraGuard with ElectraThane and ElectraGlaze (see application instructions for details) Application Instructions

Typical Maintenance

Dust Mop Daily
Damp mop weekly using a diluted solution of ElectraClean and water.
Note: Never use plain water or other floor cleaning chemicals as this may leave an insulative residue.
Auto Scrub every two months or as needed to remove ground in dirt and contaminants, start with lightest pad possible.
As needed, high speed polish using a white or champagne colored pad and ElectraShine polishing spray.
As needed (about every year or two). Follow the ESD floor care procedure as listed at How to maintain an esd floor.
