Know before you start
- Not slip-resistant as supplied: an anti-slip broadcast is needed for a rating
- Not a structural repair product or a levelling product

- Remove all old paint and resin coatings first, and never apply outside 10–30°C
Its FORSPEC systems
How to apply ACTFLEX ULTRA SHIELD
- 01
Clean
Remove dust, grease, oil, wax, paint and old resin coatings completely. Degrease where needed, rinse with clean water and let it dry fully.
- 02
Repair
Reinstate cracks and spalling flush with FORBUILD 100, FORCRETE 100 or the FORSPEC epoxy crack repair range, and let repairs cure.
- 03
Profile
Diamond grind or shot blast to an open, sound profile and vacuum. Moisture limit is 5%. Above it, apply two coats of ACTFLEX EP250 as a moisture-control system.
- 04
Mix
Pre-condition both components. Mix full kits only with a low-speed mixer to a streak-free blend. Mix only what you can place within the 30-minute pot life.
- 05
Apply
Roller, brush or spray at 6–8 m² per litre. Keep a wet edge, as dry laps show. Apply further coats within the 1 to 4 hour recoat window.
- 06
Finish
Flake: broadcast into the wet base coat, vacuum loose flake, then clear lock coat. Anti-slip: broadcast aggregate and lock in with a further coat. Full cure 48 hours.

ACTFLEX ULTRA SHIELD questions
Do I need a membrane or primer under ULTRA SHIELD?
No separate membrane is needed for the coating duty. Apply it direct to well-prepared concrete. If moisture is over the 5% limit, apply ACTFLEX EP250 as a two-coat moisture-control system first.
How much do I need?
Typically 6 to 8 m² per litre per coat. A 4 L pack covers about 24 to 32 m², a 20 L pack 120 to 160 m² and a 40 L pack 240 to 320 m², in one coat. Flake systems use more clear coat.
Is it slip resistant?
Not as supplied. An anti-slip broadcast is needed to reach a designed slip rating, and the rating is the specifier's responsibility.
How long before it can be used?
It is hard through in 3.5 hours and fully cured in 48 hours at 25°C and 50% RH. Vehicle traffic comes after full cure.
Can I do a decorative flake floor?
Yes. Broadcast the flake into the wet base coat, let it cure, vacuum off loose flake, then apply the clear lock coat. Flake demand is set on a trial area.
Is it certified?
No accredited certificate is held. All performance values are typical FORSPEC R&D values.
