The next evolution in vehicular deck protection.
The DriveDeck system is a polyurea waterproofing solution engineered for both pedestrian and vehicular applications where outstanding weathering, toughness, fast cure times, and solvent resistance are essential.
A multi-layer coating, applied over a concrete deck.
- 1Concrete deck
Prepared to a CSP-3 surface profile — clean, dry, and sound — before any coating goes down.
- 2D-Prime — epoxy primer
A two-component, high-performance epoxy primer that creates an optimal bonding surface and acts as an effective vapor retarder, protecting against moisture vapor emissions up to 10 lbs./1,000 sq. ft./24 hrs. in a single application (15 lbs. with a second).
- 3D-Guard — waterproofing base coat
A solvent-free, non-gassing, two-component polyurea that forms the seamless, monolithic waterproofing heart of the system.
- 4D-Grip — wear course with aggregate
A high-solids, two-component aliphatic polyurea top coat with broadcast aggregate for a durable, slip-resistant, traffic-grade wearing surface.
Three core products, engineered as one system.
Every value below comes straight from the published technical data sheets — download them for full application details.

- Tensile strength (ASTM D412)2,000 psi
- Tear resistance (ASTM D1004)250 lbs./in.
- VOC content (mixed)< 1 g/L
- Cure time @ 77°F3–5 hrs
D-Grip Top Coat
High-solids aliphatic polyurea wear course with broadcast aggregate for traction and abrasion resistance.
- Tensile strength (ASTM D412)3,750 psi
- Tear resistance (ASTM D1004)350 lbs./in.
- Hardness, Shore A (ASTM D2240)90
- Softening point (ASTM D-36)240°F
- Traffic-ready48 hrs
D-Seal — high-movement sealant
A premium joint sealant for the cracks, control joints, and transitions around the system — ±50% joint movement, 100% solids with zero shrinkage, solvent- and isocyanate-free, ultra-low VOC (21.22 g/L), and paintable.
Polyaspartic 87% Solids — clear top coat option
A zero-VOC (clear), non-yellowing aliphatic polyaspartic coating with a 2–4 hour cure, applied up to 14 mils in a single coat — 6,500 psi tensile strength and strong abrasion and chemical resistance.
Specified to the traffic it will carry.
The same core products, built up to match the duty level — per the DriveDeck Application Guidelines.
Light-Duty Pedestrian System
For elevated walkways, balconies, and rooftop pedestrian areas.
- D-Prime primer8 wet mils
- D-Guard base coat32 wet mils
- D-Grip top coat + aggregate16 wet mils
- Foot traffic after16 hours
Heavy-Duty Pedestrian & Vehicular System
For parking structures, ramps, and traffic-bearing decks.
- D-Prime primer8 wet mils
- D-Guard base coat32 wet mils
- D-Grip intermediate coat + aggregate15 wet mils
- D-Grip finish coat + aggregate18 wet mils
- Vehicular traffic after72 hours
Cracks, control joints, transitions, and cove details receive dedicated detail coats and D-Seal treatment before the field coating goes down. Steeper ramps can take larger aggregate for added traction.
Fast cure. Fewer surprises.
DriveDeck’s two-component chemistry cures by reaction — not by waiting on ambient moisture — for consistent results and quick returns to service.
Prepare
Shotblast to a CSP-3 profile; the deck must be clean, dry, sound, and moisture-tested.
Detail
Treat cracks, joints, and transitions with detail coats and D-Seal high-movement sealant.
Prime & base
D-Prime bonds and blocks vapor; D-Guard builds the seamless waterproofing membrane.
Wear course
D-Grip with broadcast aggregate delivers the finished, slip-resistant traffic surface.
Installed by licensed contractors to Multicoat’s specifications, with Multicoat technical guidance available throughout. Full procedures are in the Application Guidelines.
Built for decks that work for a living.
DriveDeck systems are engineered for pedestrian and vehicular traffic decks, parking structures, and the demanding spaces around them:
Low-odor chemistry keeps occupied buildings usable during the work — a fit for hospitals, campuses, and dense urban sites.
A coated pedestrian surface in service — seamless, slip-resistant, and UV-stable.
Nine standard colors. Custom on request.
Standard DriveDeck top coat colors are shown below; custom colors can be developed subject to minimum order quantities.
Not all colors are available in all products. On-screen colors are approximate; applied colors may vary with surface texture, lighting, and application method. Download the color chart (PDF) for reference.
