Features & Benefits
- Reduces leaching of free lime from concrete substrates
- Seals the concrete surface
- Provides improved abrasion resistance
- Treated surfaces have improved acid resistance
- Water based
- Typically a single coat application
Application Notes
- Supplied in 25KG packs
- New concrete must be allowed to cure for 14 days prior to treatment
- Apply Proofex Anti-Lime Coating at a rate of 2-4 square metres / kg using a brush or spray unit
- Allow 2-3 hours for the product to dry
- After this period, check for any “puddling” of the product on the concrete surface. If “puddling” has occurred, apply water to the affected and sweep the product with a broom to allow further penetration in to the treated substrate
- Porous concrete may require subsequent applications; a trial should be conducted to assess the number of applications applied
- After the coating has dried, the surface may appear patchy, the appearance should improve after a period of months as the Proofex Anti-Lime Coating continues to react and release any trapped water
Limitations
Do not apply Proofex Anti-Lime Coating in the following cases;
- To seal lightweight or other extremely porous masonry that contains voids and air pockets. In such circumstances, the use of Nitocote CM210 is recommended instead
- At temperatures of 5°C and falling
- To areas previously treated with curing or sealing agents unless these coatings have been removed prior to treatment
- Do not allow Proofex Anti-Lime Coating to contact painted surfaces, glass or aluminum, as damage or pitting may occur. In case of contact, flush with copious amounts of water
- Not recommended where an aesthetic finish is important, e.g. coloured concrete
