Description Technical Specifications Unit Volume: 5 Gallon Pail Base Material: Silica-fortified Acrylic Latex Emulsion Standard Coverage: ~175 linear feet (per 1/2″ W x 1″ D crack) Viscosity: Medium-heavy non-pourable liquid Colors: Dark Green, Light Green, Blue, Red, Neutral Full Cure Window: 24–48 hours (depending on depth, temperature and humidity) High-Volume Maintenance & Bulk Efficiency The 5-gallon pail is specifically designed for facility managers and contractors handling extensive court restoration. Specifically, this bulk size is the most cost-effective choice for long longitudinal cracks or multi-court facilities. Additionally, the silica-fortified formula ensures a high-traction finish that remains flush with the existing surface. Consequently, this prevents the trip hazards often associated with inferior, shrinking fillers. Note: For precision touch-ups or smaller DIY projects, you may prefer our 1-gallon crack repair unit.

Therefore, ensure the substrate is dry and structurally sound before application. For deep cracks, a backer rod can be used. It is recommended the backer rod is 25-30% wider than the crack so it can be firmly placed in the crack and is pressed down a minimum of 3/4″ from surface level. Application: Use a handheld trowel or scraper to pack the material. Specifically, you must ensure total void saturation. As a result, the repair will resist future moisture infiltration. Finishing: Run your tool firmly along the surface to remove excess material. you ensure the repair height matches the surrounding court surface. Operational Constraints Layering: For cracks exceeding 1″ in depth, apply in 1″ increments. Furthermore, allow each lift to dry fully before the next pass. Weather Integrity: Do not apply if rain is expected within 24 hours. Additionally, avoid application in extremely high humidity, as this will significantly extend the cure time. Surface Match: The filler is color-matched to standard recreational pigments. However, slight variations can occur due to the UV age of the existing court coating. Cold Weather & Shipping Compliance Shipping Point: Kansas City, MO. Consequently, we cannot ship this product if temperatures are near or below freezing at any point along the delivery route. Min.
