RonaFloor Concrete Dustproofer is a liquid surface hardener and dustproofer for the treatment of new and old concrete floors. It reduces dusting and wear and enhances the performance of the floor surface. It is supplied in concentrated form and diluted with clean water before use. It is quick and easy to apply. Within 48 hours the floor surface is treated and ready to use.

Designed for application on to porous and dusting floors and not those which have a dense surface finish or are waterproof (eg. contain Ronafix or are based on a similar product).

The chemicals in RonaFloor Concrete Dustproofer aid the penetration, increasing the depth to which it will reach and react. Its combination and reaction with free lime in the floor screed matrix converts the particles to hard, stable crystals. These crystals are bonded to, and become an integral part of, the floor.

Floor Repairs

Any floor repairs must first be carried out using suitable mortars from the Ronafix, RonaFloor Repair or other range of Ronacrete flooring products. These repairs, provided properly applied, will not need treatment with RonaFloor Concrete Dustproofer.

Instructions for Use

Surfaces must be clean, sound and free of loose material. The floor surface should be clean, free of oil and grease and dry (slight dampness is acceptable). New concrete floors should be left for 7-14 days before applying RonaFloor Concrete Dustproofer.

Preparation

Remove contamination and lightly abrade surface by wire brushing or similar to open up the matrix of the floor so that the RonaFloor Concrete Dustproofer can soak in and react.

First Coat

Dilute RonaFloor Concrete Dustproofer with between 4 and 8 parts of clean potable water. The dilution depends on the porosity of the floor – a dense surface will need more dilution (a greater addition of water) than a porous surface. For a very porous surface the dilution need only be 4 parts water.

Pour or spray the diluted material over the floor and sweep in all directions with a brush, broom or squeegee until no more is absorbed. Any dry spots should be retreated. Remove excess RonaFloor Concrete Dustproofer with a soft broom or squeegee.

Allow the RonaFloor Concrete Dustproofer to be absorbed into the concrete leaving a dry surface. A drying period of 12 – 24 hours is normally sufficient. Avoid ponding as this will prevent the material correctly functioning.

Second Coat

Dilute RonaFloor Concrete Dustproofer with 4 parts of clean potable quality water. Apply as the first coat. Remove excess and allow to dry. After 12 – 24 hours sweep the floor to remove surface crystal growth. Sweeping may need to be repeated for some time whilst the reaction continues.
