Technical Information

Cure N Seal 15

Non-VOC, High Solids, Solvent Based, Non-Yellowing, Acrylic Concrete

Curing, Sealing, and Dust proofing Compound.

A Solvent Based Sealer with VOC's < 100 Grams/Liter

Meets all State VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) Regulations

(New Jan. 1, 2005 Regulations and Future Regulations coming into Law)

Designed for use as a cure and seal (1 coat) on freshly placed concrete and as a 2

coat high gloss sealer for aged finished concrete.

Use as a sealer/dustproof on both previously cured and new rough or smooth finished

concrete surfaces. This curing/sealer contain 15% solids.

Product Description

High Gloss

Repels Oil

Repels Grease

Repels Water

Will not stain

Applied to freshly placed and finished concrete surfaces, CURE N SEAL 15 creates a vapor seal

that retains moisture for proper curing. It also provides early rainfall protection and resistance to

abrasion and staining. The sealer will protect against spalling, dusting, efflorescence, freeze thaw

damage, and alkali degradation.

CURE N SEAL 15 can also protect in food preparation areas from food and beverage stains and

slabs in garages and parking facilities from grease and oil penetration

Tarksone is the solvent used in CURE N SEAL 15. Tarksone is a 0 VOC solvent that evaporates

very quickly and exhibits a flash point over 140 deg F. CURE N SEAL 15 is a 15% Acrylic exhibits

UV resistance from sunlight, excellent protection against water and chloride intrusion. Unlike

Epoxies, CURE N SEAL 15 L Acrylic will not yellow from UV exposure

 

Advantages

•Specifically designed to meet the moisture retention properties of:

ASTM C 1315 Type 1, Class A ASTM C 309

•Remains spray able in freezing temperatures

•Ensures sufficient retention of mix water for at least 72 hours, allowing concrete to

develop maximum strength, density and surface hardness

•Prevents surface crazing and cracking

•Dries to a dust and tack proof state in 30 minutes quickly providing protection from

rainfall, scuffing and foot traffic

•Acrylic Polymer – UV resistant, will not yellow

•Reduces final clean-up costs by protecting concrete from oil, grease and chemical spills

and from mortar splashing adhesion

•Second applications, after finial clean up, beautify concrete appearance with a lustrous

sheen and reduce after-occupancy maintenance costs

•Treated surfaces are readily recoat able when necessary without sanding or scarification

•CURE N SEAL 15; is compatible with most adhesives used for resilient floor coverings

and concrete paints

Use Instructions

Site environmental conditions, substrate conditions and construction have a major effect on

product selection, application methods, procedures and rates, appearance and performance.

Product literature provides general information applicable to some or most conditions. However,

an adequate site test application by the purchaser or installer in advance of field scale use is

mandatory, to verify that product and quantities can be satisfactorily applied and will achieve

desired appearance and performance under intended use conditions.

Low pressure spray application, with proper nozzle, provides the best results, however, product

can be applies with brushes or rollers. Spray apparatus should be equipped with chemically

resistant hoses and gaskets. Larger areas are most economically treated with power sprayers.

Do not thin or dilute

 

Applications

Application rates vary with substrate conditions.

Approximate rates for curing is 400 square feet per gallon

Approximate rate for sealing is 400 - 500 square feet per gallon

Application equipment should be cleaned with solvents

 

Freshly Placed Concrete

Apply immediately following finial finish and disappearance of surface water sheen

Apply to the point of saturation and appearance of continuous surface film

Concrete should be damp but not wet. Avoid over application, puddles, and runs.

For maximum sealing and dust proofing benefits, apply second coat of CURE N SEAL 15 after final clean up and concrete

is dry.

 

Previously Cured Concrete

Remove all dirt, oil, grease, paint or foreign cure residue. Clean with 10% caustic solution

Rinse thoroughly with clean water and squeegee off excess water.

Allow surface to dry 24-48 hours prior to first application.

Use moisture meter or adequate material test to verify satisfactory adhesion and appearance.

Apply second application in 24 hrs.

 

Maintenance

Wipe up all chemical, solvent or petroleum spills as soon as possible

Remove all dirt and debris by sweeping.

Wash and buff periodically to help maintain surface luster.

Clean damaged coating areas promptly and recoat.
