PaveCoat AntiSlip Mix In
For freshly paved concrete surfaces
PaveCoat AntiSlip Mix In has been developed to increases the friction coefficient of all NuTech single pack floor coating systems, reducing the slip potential under both wet and dry conditions.
As a mix in additive, it has been designed for use in the NuTech single pack sealer and coating systems such as; PaveCoat, PaveCoat Petrol Resistant, PaveCoat H2O and EPiC Industrial Enamel.
Features
- Substantially improves safety of sealed surfaces in wet and dry conditions
- Simple mixing to achieve a uniform distribution
- Flexible and scuff resistant
- Less abrasive surface to reduce personal injury due to falls
AntiSlip Mix In when applied in the correct methods, will achieve a Pendulum Classification of P2 or P3 and meets AS4586 & AS4663.
Please refer to the NuTech Paint ANTISLIP SKID TEST Fact Sheet for further details.
AntiSlip Mix In IS NOT suitable for inclined or steep surfaces.
NOT RECOMMENDED for use in 2 pack concrete finishing systems OR in AquaStop or Silicon Sealer.
NuTech recommends the use of PolyCryl and the addition of AntiSlip Cast On to achieve up to an R12 or P5 slip rating.
Refer to the relevant TDS for further information.

Preparation
Test Patch:
NuTech Paint recommends that applicators test any AntiSlip system first as varying surface profiles, slopes and access conditions vary significantly with individual conditions. These variants impact heavily on pedestrian and vehicle safety.
Application Procedure:
1 st Coat:
- Mix and apply first coat of the selected NuTech sealer in accordance with the relevant TDS and application method, allow to dry.
NOTE: AntiSlip Mix In is only required in the final topcoat of the NuTech Paint system.
2 nd Coat:
- Mix the selected NuTech Paint system in accordance with the relevant TDS
- Add AntiSlip Mix In in the following ratio; Mix ratio: (optimum performance) P2 Rating – Min. 400 grams (1 tub) per 20L of Paint product P3 Rating – Max. 800 grams (2 tubs) per 20L of Paint product
- Stir into the NuTech Paint system product to be used for top coat
- Stir well until no visible lumps
- Allow to stand for 10 minutes, re-stir prior to use
- Keep blended product agitated
- Apply mixed NuTech Paint system in accordance with the relevant TDS and application method A small amount of dry AntiSlip Mix In can also be broadcast onto the surface and then painted over for extra non-slip properties.
Note: Refer to the table regarding AS4586 & AS4663 mix ratio requirements Increasing the quantity of AntiSlip in the topcoat will increase the surface friction however, AntiSlip Mix In may become visible or leave a patchy appearance if over added.
ReCoat:
AntiSlip Mix In is to be added and applied in the final coat only. Refer to specific NuTech system TDS for specific re-coat times.
Typical Applications:
Ideal around wet areas, pools, factory loading docks, access ramps (with less than 15 degrees incline), stairs, entrance foyers, public pedestrian and vehicle areas.
Warnings
AntiSlip Mix In IS NOT suitable for inclined or steep surfaces.
NOT RECOMMENDED for use in 2 pack concrete finishing systems OR in AquaStop or Silicon Sealer.
Nutech recommends the use of PolyCryl and the addition of AntiSlip Cast On to achieve up to an R12
or P5 slip rating. Refer to the relevant TDS for further information.
Safety Precautions
Based on available information, this material is not classified as hazardous according to criteria of Safe Work Australia.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does the AntiSlip Mix In work?
Nutech PaveCoat AntiSlip Mix In is an additive that is stirred directly into the Pavecoat sealer before application. The fine particles create a micro-textured surface once the sealer cures, significantly improving grip without affecting colour or clarity.
2. Will the AntiSlip additive change the appearance of my sealed surface?
No — the additive is invisible once mixed into the sealer. It does not affect colour, sheen, or clarity. The surface will look identical to an untextured finish — the only difference is the improved grip underfoot.
3. How much additive should I use?
Follow the manufacturer recommended dosage on the product label. More can be added for steeper slopes and wet areas; less for surfaces where only a subtle texture is needed.
4. Can I use this with other brands of sealer?
It is formulated for Nutech PaveCoat. Compatibility with other brands should be tested on a small area first.
5. Is the AntiSlip Mix In suitable for pool surrounds?
Yes — this is one of the primary applications. Pool surrounds, driveways, and pathways that are frequently wet benefit significantly from the added slip resistance.
6. Can I add too much?
Excessive additive may cause the surface to feel rough or gritty underfoot and could slightly affect the sheen. Start with the recommended dosage and increase only if needed based on a test patch.
