Concrete Remedy™ Internal Top Seal (TS) Concrete Remedy™ TS is a nontoxic, non-flammable, penetrating surface sealer that completely seals and waterproofs most concrete, stamped concrete, brick, cured asphalt, stucco and sandstone surfaces. Concrete Remedy™ TS is effective as a sealer on surfaces which will be above or below grade. Concrete Remedy™ TS can be used alone, as a single product, or it can be used in conjunction with Concrete Remedy™ DS - an internal concrete densifier and hardener that also waterproofs and reduces vapor transmission. If you have questions about when and where to use Top Seal, or how Top Seal and DS can be used together please email or call for more information. Concrete Remedy™ TS penetrates approximately 1/16th inch into concrete and prevents contaminants from adhering to the surface. Penetration rates vary according to the substrate. Concrete Remedy DS works only internally, and leaves the top 1/16th inch clean so that other coatings or adhesives or penetrating sealers will adhere well. Either as a "stand alone" single product for sealing all types of surfaces, or in conjuction with Concrete Remedy™ Deep Seal, Concrete Remedy™ Top Seal is the Perfect Solution for: Driveways and Garage Floors - Concrete Remedy™ TS fills the voids and seals the top 1/16 inch of the surface preventing oil, grease or other contaminants from penetrating which allows for easy clean up and the prevention of oil or rust stains, etc. Stamped Concrete - Concrete Remedy™ TS is particularly well suited to protect Stamped Concrete. Often the concrete is colored. Top Seal will not change the look or color of stamped concrete and will not make the surface slippery because there is no surface film build. Slickness and safety are a huge issues in commercial settings. Top Seal avoids this problem because it is a penetrating sealer and NOT a surface film build material, so the surface texture remains unchanged by application of Concrete Remedy™ TS. Stucco Houses and Buildings - Stucco walls tend to absorb moisture. The results of moisture passing into and through stucco include mold and mildew growth and deterioration of the stucco finish. All the moisture problems associated with stucco can be solved by patching cracks if needed and applying Concrete Remedy™ DS and Concrete Remedy™ TS. Concrete Remedy™ DS also hardens, strengthens and dust proofs stucco for longer life. Dog Kennels, Hog Farms, Dairies, etc. - The moisture that wicks up through concrete and the penetration of solid and liquid waste materials into the concrete create unique health issues for animal husbandry industries. Concrete Remedy™ DS will prevent moisture wicking, alleviating health issues stemming from animals laying on cold, damp surfaces. Concrete Remedy™ TS seal the top 1/16 inch of the concrete preventing the penetration of bodily waste materials allowing easier cleaning and prevention of the establishment of bacteria. This not only benefits the health of the animals involved, but also enhances odor control. Typical Popular Uses - Concrete
- Brick structures
- Many tile floors and walls
- Asphalt Shingles
- Sidewalks, Curbs and Gutters
- Paving Stones
- Granaries
- Patios
- Sewage Treatment Plants
- Zoo, Barn and Concrete Floors
- Garage Pads and Driveways
- Service Stations
- Pools
- Car Wash walls
ADVANTAGES - Very Easy One coat application
- Never any "peeling" or chipping -- maintains a good, natural appearance
- Leaves clear, non-glossy finish
- Does not produce the extreme slipperiness that surface build, shiny materials will. Top Seal is safer in business and commercial settings.
- Will not alter color or texture
- Impervious to penetration of grease, oils, acids and salts
- Stops pitting, rutting, dusting and molding
- Enables easier ice and snow removal
- Enables easy clean up of spills with mild soap and water
COVERAGE RATES Coverage rates with Concrete Remedy™ TS depend on the porosity of the surface being treated. i.e. concrete floors finished with a power trowel then treated with Concrete Remedy™ DS will use much less Concrete Remedy™ TS than paving stones which have never been treated with anything and have visible pores. Coverage can range from 100 to 300 square feet per U.S. gallon. CAUTION - PLEASE NOTE Top Seal should not be used if the surface is going to later be painted or coated over. Coatings will not stick to Top Seal without specific surface preparation. - Do not apply Concrete Remedy™ TS to glass, glazed surfaces, or aluminum, as etching will occur. In case of accidental contact, rinse thoroughly and immediately with water.
- Concrete Remedy™ TS is not meant to fill or seal visible cracks.
- For surfaces not specified in our literature or if you are uncertain as to previous chemical treatments, (on the surface to which you are considering applying Concrete Remedy™ TS), we recommend that Concrete Remedy™ TS be applied to a small test area first.
- DO NOT ATTEMPT A SECOND COATING OF Concrete Remedy™ TS!
- If Concrete Remedy™ TS becomes frozen, thaw out completely and shake well to fully remix the material prior to using. Freezing will not harm the product.
