Protect The Concrete Surfaces Of Your Home. Seal The Surface.

We recommend the application of concrete sealing as a way of protecting concrete surfaces from deterioration. Concrete sealers are also available in a variety of colors or clear and the cost is minimum if you compare to a greater lasting life of concrete surfaces. It can be applied in just poured or old concrete areas.

Benefits

Preserves the life of concrete in high moisture, high corrosion areas by preventing the concrete from deteriorating.
Lightens old weathered concrete, seals and preserves weathering concrete from acid rain, pollution, freeze/thaw cycles, and enhances any bonding of repairs.
Provides a non-slip surface.
Allows for low maintenance cleaning.
Aids concrete curing.
Retards capillary seepage.
Stops Alkali problems.
Aids the floor covering trade.
Resists cracking, crumbing and pitting.
Re-strengthens old deteriorated concrete and adds several years of useful life, saving costly replacement.
Its actions and results are permanent.

	Concrete sealers at-a-glance Characteristics of concrete sealers vary depending on the specific formulation, but typically the following applies to these most commonly used concrete sealers:

	Acrylic sealers • Film-forming • Typically UV stable • Solvent-based formulas have a glossy, color enhancing sheen • Water-based formulas not as shiny, but sheen can be built up in layers • Can be tinted • Provide relatively good protections • Good adhesion to concrete • Easy to apply and repair • Inexpensive and easy to obtain

	Epoxy sealers • Film-forming • Aesthetically very pleasing; available in colors • Glossy finish • More durable than acrylics • Excellent chemical resistance • Aromatic version are not UV stable; aliphatic versions are UV stable • Requires careful preparation and application, but generally good bonding • Can be very expensive

	Urethanes • Film-forming • Very glossy finish • Provides a hard, durable surface • Excellent chemical resistance • Aromatic versions are not UV stable; aliphatic versions are UV stable • May have bonding problems • More expensive than acrylics

	Silanes/Siloxanes • Penetrating (reactive) • Don't change surface appearance; no gloss • Excellent water repellency • Easy to apply • Twice as much as acrylics
