Concrete Remedy‚™ Internal Deep Seal (DS) PRODUCT DESCRIPTION Concrete Remedy™ DS (Deep Seal) is an alkali activated chemical penetrating masonry Stabilizer. Concrete Remedy™ DS as a concrete sealant outlasts and outperforms typical sealers with which most people are familiar. Concrete Remedy™ DS NEVER needs to be reapplied -- Do it once and you NEVER have to reapply the material. Concrete Remedy™ DS is not a surface sealant, but, an internal concrete stabilizer - Which eliminates problems at the source. Concrete Remedy™ DS contains a proprietary catalyst which "pursues moisture" within the pores in concrete, and upon contact reacts with the "free" alkali (lime) and calcium hydroxides (already in concrete or masonry) to form a silica gel within the voids, impregnating the entire depth penetrated. This gel hydrates into glass, turning the entire depth penetrated into a solid mass. This internal, permanent seal and water barrier also hardens and dust-proofs the surface while increasing the compressive and flexural strength. For a more detailed, comprehensive explanation of the many unique benefits of using Concrete Remedy™ DS. Please refer to Technical Reports 1 through 10. ADVANTAGES Concrete Remedy™ DS does not just "cover up" the problem as typical 'sealers' do. Instead it works internally and solves the problem at the source. Concrete Remedy™ DS becomes an internal part of the concrete and NEVER needs to be reapplied...thus it is extremely cost beneficial...particularly compared to the majority of sealers which need to be reapplied on a regular basis. - Concrete Remedy™ DS is nontoxic and has NO odor -- easy & safe to apply.
- Concrete Remedy™ DS does not alter or affect the color or texture of the treated surface.
- Concrete Remedy™ DS permanently waterproofs (holding a hydrostatic head) which retards penetration of grease, oils, and acids.
- Concrete Remedy™ DS increases bonding of any top coating (including paint, mastics, etc.) by 300%.
- Concrete Remedy™ DS retards pitting, spalling, dusting and rutting.
- Concrete Remedy™ DS cures new concrete uniformly and resists hair checking (spider cracks) and spot drying.
- Concrete Remedy™ DS permanently densifies and hardens all concrete and masonry surfaces, greatly extending the life of treated surfaces by reducing or eliminating wear due to abrasion, freeze-thaw and salt attack.
- Concrete Remedy™ DS enables easier removal of snow and ice.
- Concrete Remedy™ DS may be painted over, and will accept concrete topping or mastics for floor tile, etc.
USES - Uncountable applications -- Literally Everything Cementitious!
- All Concrete should be stabilized with Concrete Remedy™ DS
- Shotcrete
- Stucco, Mortor
- Above, below or on grade as a slab hardener, dustproofer, and/or waterproofing agent.
- Literally every product (rubberized, paint, polyurea, epoxy, surfaces sealers) that can be applied to concrete will perform exceedingly better if the concrete has been stabilized and hardened with Concrete Remedy™ DS first.
