ESD Floor Maintenance
ZeroStat Diamond Coat II XL ESD Floor Finish
Protect and Enhance the Performance of Conductive ESD Flooring
Your existing ESD Floor, something to be proud of, a substantial investment chosen to eliminate static and provide a high tech showplace for your Clients. But scuff marks and dirt from the manufacturing environment can dull the value, reduce the performance and become a cumbersome maintenance nightmare. Introducing ZeroStat DiamondCoat II XL a unique, highly wear resistant, static control floor finish specially formulated for use on all ESD conductive vinyl's.
Unlike typical static control wax, our innovative formulation features an incredibly tough, highly abrasion resistant polymeric blend that actually improves the reduction of tribocharging without significantly altering the electrical resistivity. With superior chemical and water resistance, excellent bond strength to all surfaces (including non PVC) and the best resistance to abrasions and scuff marks in the industry DiamondCoat pays for itself by reducing maintenance cost while restoring the appearance of your floor to a "better than new condition." Applications are quick and simple, requiring only two coats for optimum results. It can be buffed to a high shine yet still providing slip resistant properties typically better than untreated flooring. exceptional adhesion to all surfaces including non PVC surfaces.
Application:
This material is for use on conductive ESD flooring. If the floor has been previously coated with a wax or if floor is dirty, remove contaminants with emulsifying floor stripper such as StopESD's Floor Stripping Liquid. Buff with pad, double rinse with clean water. Allow to dry thoroughly. Using clean Rayon mop or wax applicator, apply thin even coats of Diamond Coat allowing finish to dry 2 hours between coats. Two coats are recommended for optimum performance. Buffing is not required between coats unless high luster is desired
Maintenance:
Dry mop floors with a untreated mop daily to remove loose dirt, sand and other abrasives. As needed: damp mop using StopESD ESD Floor Cleaner diluted 10:1 to remove soils which can degrade the coatings conductive properties and gloss. Heavily soiled areas and scuff marks can be removed by spray buffing with a 1-1 solution of floor finish to water. If a high shine is required high speed polish with finest pad possible using coarser pads only as needed. For best results consider the use of a propane powered high speed polishing machine.
Storage:
Store tightly in cool dry area. Do not mix other floor finishes or add left over product from previous applications.

Our Testing:
Diamond Coat works with the floor's existing conductivity and typically adds approximately 1/2 to 1 decade of
resistance to conductive flooring. Diamond Coat typically increases the conductivity of flooring that
falls within the static dissipative ranges by 1/2 to 1 decade. After treatment (2 coats)
all installed flooring materials fellwithin the original manufacturers specifications
for electrical conductivity at 100 Volts.* Our testing confirmsa reduction in Tribocharging
averaging 14% on seven samples ofthe most common ESD Flooring. Bond strength on a variety of flooring samples; excellent, scuff resistance; excellent (all samples).
Product has low odor, low VOC solvent and safe surfactant system. Does not contain: Glycol Ether, Formaldehyde or Dibutyl Phthalate
*Note: All ESD floor finishes will modify the resistivity of ESD Flooring materials. This floor finish is more conductive than others we have tested. Expect a slight increase in the resistance values of flooring materials manufactured in the conductive range (<1.0E06). Expect a slight increase in conductivity for flooring manufactured in the static dissipative range (from 1.0E06 to <1.0E09). Expect a decrease in the floors ability to tribocharge. Conductivity of ESD Flooring is affected by ambient conditions such as humidity and temperature as well as grounding methods, substrate conductivity and moisture content. Pre-test to insure that this product falls within compliance if the floor is close to the top limit of your Company's resistive range specifications.
