Description |
A ready-to-use, clear water based penetrating sealer for application to the surface of concrete, above or below grade, interior or exterior. Equivalent to Type 1c (Alberta Technical Standards Branch). |
Basic Uses |
Brush, roller or sprayed on concrete for sealing, hardening, dustproofing, waterproofing and weatherproofing. Protects concrete surfaces from abrasion and freeze-thaw damage and stops water seepage where it is not caused by cracking or other structural failure. |
Major Advantages |
- Increases concrete density and hardness
- Prevents chemical corrosion and physical abrasion of treated surface
- Effective in reducing freeze-thaw spalling
- Treatment is permanent and does not require subsequent reapplication every few years
- Effective as a negative side waterproofing against a hydrostatic head of over 115 feet
- Reduces or eliminates efflorescence and leaching in concrete
- An effective barrier (without loss of breathability) or water-vapour emission through concrete
- Penetrates deeply into the capillary pores of the concrete and crystallizes there, becoming part of the concrete itself
- Will not change the appearance of the concrete surface to which it is applied
- Solvent-free, odour-free, non-toxic and non-flammable.
- Improves the bonding of cementitious toppings, coatings and paints
