Application

Suitable for use on concrete and granolithic surfaces. Applications include industrial floors, light engineering works, warehouses, animal feed and milk parlours, abattoirs, car parks, dams, reservoirs, tanks, silos and flues.

Description

A water-based concentrate of metallic silicates and wetting agents that, when diluted with water and applied to flooring, penetrates the concrete, reacting with lime and other soluble particles to form granite hard crystals, leaving a permanent hard wearing surface.


Features and benefits:

  • Surface dust levels are considerably reduced after application, as is the need for subsequent floor maintenance and cleaning.
  • Highly durable, improves abrasion resistance and reduces chemical attack for oils and grease.
  • Easy to apply, no special equipment or skills required.
  • Low cost method of floor protection.
  • Supplied in 210 L drums or 25 L bottles.
