Description
A clear, penetrating, breathable water repellent for use on exterior above-grade concrete, brick masonry, concrete masonry units and some natural stones. Penetrates the surface and bonds chemically to the substrate, resulting in permanent attachment of the water repellent molecule. Protectosil CHEM-TRETE 40VOC is not a coating and as a result will not discolor or change the surface appearance in anyway.
By reducing the amount of water entering the substrate, Protectosil CHEM-TRETE 40 VOC reduces the intrusion of waterborne contaminants such as salt and dirt, and reduces the deteriorating effects of these contaminants, such as rebar corrosion, spalling, scaling, efflorescence, leaching and staining.
Product Features
- Reduces the effects of mildew, efflorescence and stains on vertical concrete and masonry buildings.
- Imparts water repellency to a substrate for an extended time.
Product Applications
- For use on concrete, to protect the reinforcing steel from corrosion due to the effects of water, deicing salts and other waterborne chemicals.
- For use on brick masonry, to protect against the ingress of wind-driven rain.
- For use on concrete pavement for highways, parking decks and airport runways, to reduce scaling due to deicer chemicals.
