Cure Shield
One step, low VOC cure & seal containing silane
Cure Shield is a solvent-based blend of silane and pure acrylic copolymers designed to cure, seal, harden, and dustproof freshly placed concrete while providing additional protection to existing concrete surfaces. It offers a non-yellowing, clear film that effectively cures and protects concrete, enhancing its resistance to spalling and deterioration caused by de-icing salts. Cure Shield is unique in its ability to be applied to fresh concrete and meets ASTM C309 and 1315 curing standards.
- Cleans and brightens floors
- Can be recoated at any time without stripping the prior application
- Reduces maintenance and clean-up costs
- Provides a tough glossy film that is resistant to abrasion and common staining materials
- Can be recoated prior to occupancy for a glossy final finish
- Prevents the adhesion of cementitious droppings and the penetration of most oils and greases
Application
- New Concrete: Should be applied as soon as the surface water has disappeared and the concrete can be worked on without being marred. Apply in a uniform coat, avoiding puddles.
- Existing Concrete: The surface must be clean, dry, or slightly damp and free from stains, oil, grease, dirt, and other contaminants to ensure proper adhesion and penetration.
- Coverage:
- Curing Fresh Concrete: 200 – 250 sq ft/gal.
- Existing Concrete: 200 – 300 sq ft/gal.
- Increase coverage rate on broom or rough-finished concrete to account for greater surface area.
Packaging
Available in 55-gallon drums and 5-gallon pails.
