TUFF-BOY 1106
CLEAR ACRYLIC WATERPROOFING SEALER
DESCRIPTION
PERFORMANCE DATA
SLIP RATING ASTM D 2047:
Very Safe: Slip Resistant.
Coefficient of Friction rated 1-coat: 0.7 to two coats: 0.78.
NOTE: this product is very slippery when wet.
Tuff-Boy 1106 Sealer is a clear, non-yellowing, penetrating waterproofing sealer and conditioner designed for use on tilt-up concrete
panels, poured concrete walls, and concrete light poles and is
especially useful on concrete floors. Tuff-Boy 1106 minimizes
grease, dirt, and stain pick-up which makes carports and warehouse
floors not only look clean, but easy to clean-up as well. Sealed
floors can be swept without the dust problem that sweeping
generates on unsealed concrete. This unique product is easy to
apply, fast drying, requires minimal surface preparation, and offers
excellent protection against grease, oil, mild acids and alkalis, road
salts, detergents, weathering, and acid rain. Tuff-Boy 1106 seals the
surface of new and old concrete and gives the treated concrete a
smooth surface which keeps the dirt out of the concrete and on the
surface where it can be easily removed. Tuff-Boy 1106 also
prevents alkaline salt buildup which can cause checking and
dusting.
Chemical Resistance ASTM D 1308:

WARNING! Removal of old paint by sanding, scraping or other
means may generate dust or fumes that contain lead. Exposure to
lead dust or fumes may cause brain damage or other adverse
health effects, especially in children or pregnant women.
Controlling exposure to lead or other hazardous substances
requires the use of proper protective equipment, such as a properly
fitted respirator (NIOSH approved) and proper containment and
cleanup. For more information, call the National Lead Information
Center at 1-800-424-LEAD (in US) or contact your local health
authority.
GENERAL
The surface to be sealed should be dry and free of any dirt, chalk,
grease, asphalt, mildew, oil, rust, or other foreign contaminants.
Thorough cleaning and sweeping before application is
recommended.
Moisture - Concrete must be free of any excess moisture or
standing water, (moisture seldom drops below 15% in concrete).
Test for excess moisture by taping (sealing) the edges of a 2 foot by
2 foot plastic sheet to the concrete. After 48 hours, inspect for
moisture or condensation on the concrete or the underside of the
plastic sheet. If moisture is present, the source must be located and
the cause corrected before sealing.
Old Concrete- For best results, concrete should be bare and
unsealed. If a sealer or coating is present, shot blasting to reveal a
“new “surface is recommended. Hard traveled or extremely
smooth areas should be acid etched to allow proper sealer
penetration.

New Concrete - When applying to new concrete, all form release
agents and powdery residue must be removed. New concrete must
be cured prior to application. If the concrete is rough, (feels like 120
grit sandpaper), the pores are open enough for this product to
bond properly to the substrate. If the concrete is smooth, it must
be etched prior to coating.
Acid Etching – Acid Etch all smooth, non-porous concrete prior to
sealing. If the concrete feels like sandpaper the pores are open
enough for this product to adhere to. If the surface does not have
this texture, acid etching is necessary. If sealing acid etched or acid
stained masonry, the surface must be totally dry and all excess
acid residue, must be neutralized and removed, and all
efflorescence or salts must be removed before applying this
product.
Test Patch - Due to a wide range of substrates and application
methods, the customer should test the product in an inconspicuous
area for adhesion and compatibility before coating entire project.
Prepared concrete should have a pH of between 7 and 10. Not
adequately degreasing, etching, or allowing the substrate to dry
completely will result in poor adhesion of the coating.
THINNING AND CLEAN-UP
Thinning this product will exceed the maximum allowed VOC of this
coating. Clean-up tools and equipment with Xylene after use.

The technical data contained in this data sheet is accurate to the
best of our knowledge as currently offered. No warranty is
expressed or implied since the method of application and its
intended use is beyond our control
If you have any questions about proper surface preparation, check
your surface preparation guide or consult your Farrell-Calhoun
representative.
APPLICATION
PRECAUTIONS/CONDITIONS
Do not apply paint if the atmospheric temperature or the substrate
temperature is below 45°F or above 90°F. Sealing surfaces below
45°F can cause micro-cracking and incomplete film formation. Do
not paint late in the day when dew or condensation is likely to
form or when rain is threatening. Do not apply unless surface is
completely dry. If moisture is trapped below the surface of the
coating, while the coating is curing, blushing may occur.
This product will release Xylene. Make certain there is adequate
ventilation in the area and that a proper respirator is used. Block
all ventilation ducts and eliminate all sources of ignition such as
open flames and pilot lights.
Masonry surfaces treated with Tuff-Boy 1106 will darken or appear
“wet”.
All concrete should be aged a minimum of 30 days prior to sealing.
“Hot” concrete mixes should be tested to ensure sealer
compatibility.
EQUIPMENT
Apply product evenly over the entire surface by hand held sprayer,
airless sprayer, 3/8” nap, solvent resistant roller cover or solvent
resistant pad. Do not use common garden type sprayers.
PROCEDURE
Apply product in a manner to minimize bubbles and surface
imperfections. Apply product to an entire section before stopping
(expansion joint to expansion joint). Sealer should be applied
uniformly and tipped off in the same direction for best visual
results. Allow the first coat to dry tack-free before applying a
second coat. Apply two coats for maximum durability and best
appearance. Avoid heavy application of material. Applying 1106
too heavily, in too many coats, or in multiple coats over time can
cause whitening, peeling, flaking, bubbling and failure of the
product. To prevent failure, measure the area to be sealed and
follow recommended coverage rates. Over-application of product
will require removal of the sealer by scrubbing the sealer with
Xylene and a stiff bristle brush or using a commercial grade paint
stripper.
