Vetocure XT427

Liquid floor hardener and dust proofer.

Vetotop XT427 is a single component, sodium-silicate based liquid hardener, dust proofer and densifier for concrete that works by reaction with free lime present in the concrete to prevent dusting and harden the concrete surface. The product has penetration properties that enable the product to permanently perform across a layer of the concrete surface rather than superficial.

Uses

  • New and old concrete floor dust-proofing and hardening.
  • Warehouse and hanger floors.
  • Garage floors.
  • Pre-cast panels.

Advantages

  • Improved concrete curing enhances cement hydration and provides more durable concrete.
  • Control of moisture loss.
  • Improved surface quality
  • Reduced permeability.
  • Minimized potential for surface cracking and shrinkage.
  • Compatible with many after-trade applications.

Usage Instructions

Surfaces to be treated with Vetocure XT427 must be structurally sound and free from loose materials. Repair cracks or holes using a recommended Saveto repair material which should be allowed to cure before proceeding with the application of Vetocure XT427. Treat oil and grease contaminated surfaces with a suitable chemical de-greaser followed by washing with clean water and allowed to dry. Remove any laitance or existing coating before application, as these will prevent the Vetocure XT427 from penetrating the concrete surface. Allow new concrete floors to cure for 14 days before the treatment. Allow the colored floors to cure for 28 days before the treatment. Test a small area with Vetocure XT427 to assess the effect on the color. Vetocure XT427 must only be applied to dry surfaces to maximize penetration.

Mix 2 parts of XT427 and 1 part of clean water, use slow speed mixing for 2 minutes until a homogenous mixture is achieved.

Ensure that the surface to be treated is fully dry. Apply the mixed Vetocure XT427 at a rate of approximately 1 liter to every 4 - 6 m2 depends on the surface condition and concrete porosity. Use a soft broom or brush. Allow the solution to be absorbed into the floor for up to 2 hours; remove any solution not absorbed after this period. Failure to do so will result in forming a weak, glossy surface film following the drying.

Normally a two or three-coat application is recommended for complete treatment. However, very dense, well trowelled surfaces such as granolithic toppings, power floated, or vacuumed dewatered concrete will generally require only a single coat.

If a second application is necessary, re-apply the solution after 24 hours, ensuring that the floor is dry. All surplus solutions must be removed as stated previously. Apply the same procedure for a third application if required.

 

* Important Note

Consult your Saveto technical representative for conditions and application method.

Clean spray equipment immediately after use by flushing through with water.
