| USE: |
|
Freshly Placed
Concrete: Conspec #21 is formulated for curing and
dustproofing freshly cast concrete. Combines with the free
lime and other chemicals in the concrete to form a moisture
barrier that restricts moisture evaporation, assuring better
hydration and a positive cure.
Conspec #21, when applied to concrete, forms an insoluble
gel within the surface pores and capillaries. The concrete
surface is dust-free and more resistant to cutting oils,
salt, alcohol, weak citric acid, kerosene, gasoline, jet
fuels and some solvents.
Conspec #21 is recommended for use on exterior concrete
surfaces where the natural appearance of the concrete is to
be pre-served and weather resistance improved. |

|
| BENEFITS: |
|
- Conspec #21, when applied as directed, does not affect
the bonding characteristics of cement-type toppings,
sealers, asphalt, cut-back adhesives, urethanes, epoxies
or insulation adhesives.
- Aged Concrete: renews aged concrete or terrazzo floors
and provides a new, long-wearing and dustproofed surface
on sound substrates.
- Conspec #21 applies easily, re-coats easily and
contains and upon request, contains red fugitive dye to
aid in even application and to check the application.
- Conspec #21 is non-flammable and non-explosive; no
harmful or noxious fumes are created. Safe to use.

May be applied with sprayer, brush or roller. Spraying
provides superior results.
The above rates are approximate. Exact coverage depends
upon the porosity of the concrete as well as the job
requirements.
Apply immediately after final finishing operations and
after the bleed water has receded. At this point, apply
promptly. Brush out puddles and runs.
Protect metal, glass, painted and brick surfaces from
Conspec #21. If accidentally misapplied, wash with clean
water at once.
For aged concrete, surface must be free of dirt and all
other foreign matter. Surface should be dry to permit
maximum penetration. |
