Model: TIAH

DESCRIPTION

TIAH acrylic concrete curing and sealing compound is an acrylic polymer solution that dries to a transparent film, which improves abrasion resistance of the concrete. TIAH provides a tough, clear film that will not after-yellow. It also provides improved weather and stain resistance, combined with a dustproof sealer.

USES

TIAH is used on driveways, patios, industrial floors, loading docks, swimming pool areas, and exposed aggregate, as well as any exterior surface where protection and sealing of concrete is desired (dries to a low medium sheen). TIAH offers improved resistance to rain, sun, freezing temperatures, stains, most acids and industrial chemicals, oil, grease, de-icing salts, cleaning agents (except aromatic solvents), and caustics, as well as airborne soot, dust, and other pollutants.

FEATURES/BENEFITS

• Applies easily and dries to the touch in 30 to 60 minutes.
• Permeable film allows moisture in cured concrete to evaporate
• Provides a clear, tough, easy-to-clean film, which improves abrasion and stain resistance.
• Offers improved resistance to rain, sun, freezing temperatures, most acids and industrial chemicals, oil, grease, de-icing salts, cleaning agents (except aromatic solvents), caustics, airborne soot, dust, and other pollutants.
• Offers excellent foot or vehicular traffic wearing qualities.
• Recoat after thorough surface cleaning to restore original beauty.
• Concrete sealed with TIAH can later be painted (consult reputable paint manufacturer for compatibility) or covered with resilient flooring or carpeting, if desired.
• Dried film is USDA accepted.
• VOC compliant u0085 meets U.S. EPA Architectural Coatings Rule requirements.

• 5 Gallon (18.93 Liter) Pails
• 55 Gallon (208.20 Liter) Drums

COVERAGE

300 to 600 ft./gal. (7.37 -14.73 m/L), depending on surface finish. Coverage may vary due to porosity and condition of the concrete

SPECIFICATIONS

• AASHTO M 148, Type 1, Classes A B
• ASTM C 309, Type 1, Classes A BM
• ASTM C 1315, Type I, Class A
• Dried film is USDA accepted
• Complies with U.S. EPA maximum allowable VOC requirements

APPLICATION

Surface Preparation: Existing Concrete: Concrete surfaces must be clean and dry with all stains, oil, grease, dust, and dirt removed prior to application. We recommend ULTRITEu00ae DEGREASER from W. R. MEADOWS for cleaning. New Concrete: TIAH should be applied when surface water has completely disappeared and the concrete surface will not be marred by walking workmen. Application Method u0085 Use a sprayer or short-nap roller to apply a uniform film. Avoid puddling in low areas. If puddles occur, brush or roll them out. A standard industrial-grade sprayer, equipped with a neoprene hose and gaskets, as well as a 5941 spray nozzle (or equivalent) is recommended for best results.
For optimum performance, apply first coat at 600 ft. u00b2/gal. After the first coat has thoroughly dried, apply a second coat at 600 ft. u00b2/gal. NOTE: Second coat should be applied at a right angle.
Drying Time: TIAH dries quickly. Drying times may be extended depending on application rate, temperature, humidity, and project conditions. Restrict foot traffic for at least four hours. Twelve hours is preferable.
Cleanup: Application equipment should be cleaned promptly after use with xylene or toluene.

PRECAUTIONS

DO NOT DILUTE. FOR EXTERIOR APPLICATION ONLY. Surfaces treated with TIAH may become slippery under certain conditions. TIAH should not be applied during high temperature conditions in direct sunlight. These conditions cause rapid evaporation, which does not allow the film to form properly. Under these conditions, the film may peel, bubble, and/or turn white (blush). TIAH should not be applied to concrete exposed to excessive moisture. Entrapped moisture in a solvent-based sealer may cause the film to peel and/or turn white (blush).

Do not apply TIAH if the temperature of the concrete is below 40def F (4deg C). TIAH may be used on colored concrete, but mottling may occur. Do not use on dense or non-porous surfaces, i.e. brick, stone, etc. Do not use TIAH as a waterproofing sealer on masonry surfaces. TIAH is a membrane-forming sealer. All membrane-forming sealers may darken the concrete or magnify imperfections caused by variations in the porosity of the concrete.

Concrete containing calcium chloride will remain dark longer when treated with TIAH. A small test patch application is recommended. Concrete floors properly cured with TIAH meet section 8.9 u0093Adhesion of Tile Cements of ASTM C 1315. For other specifications, secure the approval of the paint or resilient flooring manufacturer before applying TIAH. The specifier and user shall determine the suitability of product for specific applications and assume all responsibility in connection therewith.

Comments

LIQUI-HARD concrete densifier and chemical hardener compound is a proprietary, water-based, ready-to-use, clear silicate liquid, formulated with chemically reactive raw materials to harden and dustproof concrete. This waterborne solution, when properly applied, offers substantial improvement in abrasion and chemical resistance and will significantly improve the durability of the concrete surface when compared to untreated concrete. As LIQUI-HARD is applied and penetrates into the concrete surface, a chemical reaction takes place, producing a byproduct that fills in the pores of the concrete. This process produces a substantially denser concrete surface with enhanced durability. In addition to the densifying and hardening action, LIQUI-HARD also solidifies the concrete, eliminating dusting and pitting.

USES

LIQUI-HARD is recommended for use wherever hardened, dustproofed, and improved chemical- and abrasion-resistant surfaces are required. Ideal applications include floors in industrial plants and warehouses, storage silos, sewage plants, chemical processing facilities, refineries, and heavy pedestrian floor traffic areas, such as civic centers, sports arenas, stadiums, hospitals, airports, and museums. LIQUI-HARD can successfully be used in conjunction with shake-on hardeners.

FEATURES/BENEFITS

• Penetrates deeply into concrete to densify and harden surfaces to help prevent entry of moisture and other foreign matter.
• Dustproofs and improves chemical, petroleum, and abrasion resistance of treated surfaces.
• Provides a permanent, attractive sheen with the ability to polish.
• Protects against scratching or peeling.
• Provides tough, protected surface that won't after-yellow, discolor, or show pedestrian or vehicular traffic wear marks.
• Improves light reflectance.
• Ready to use from container and easy to apply.
• VOC-compliant.

PACKAGING

• 5 Gallon (18.93 Liter) Pails
• 55 Gallon (208.20 Liter) Drums

SHELF LIFE

When stored indoors in original, unopened containers at temperatures between 40deg to 90deg F, optimum performance and best use is obtained within one year of date of manufacture.

SPECIFICATIONS

Complies with U.S. EPA, LADCO, OTC, SCAQMD, and all other current North American VOC regulations.

Treated surface is USDA accepted.

TECHNICAL DATA

VOC Content: 0 g/L

APPLICATION

Surface Preparation: Fresh Concrete: On newly placed concrete, LIQUI-HARD can be applied after final troweling. Existing (Old) Concrete: Surface should be clean and structurally sound. Remove all residues, curing compounds, oils, sealers, contaminants, and laitance before applying LIQUI-HARD. ULTRITE DEGREASER from W. R. MEADOWS may be used for cleaning. Fill and repair all holes, cracks, and deteriorated areas that have been removed to sound concrete. For optimum results on fresh, newly placed concrete, use MED-CURE curing aid from W. R. MEADOWS immediately after final finishing operations have been completed. Apply LIQUI-HARD according to the below existing concrete directions a minimum of three days after placement of concrete.

Mixing: For optimum performance, gentle mixing or agitation is recommended.

Application Method Fresh Concrete: Apply undiluted LIQUI-HARD at approximately 300 ft.2/gal. (4.91 m2/L) using a low-pressure sprayer, such as a Chapin 1949 with a 0.5 GPM (1.9 LPM) spray nozzle, or by spreading evenly with a soft-bristled broom. Do not allow material to puddle on the surface. No further application steps are required for fresh concrete. Existing (Old) Concrete: Saturate the surface with undiluted LIQUI-HARD by sprayer, squeegee or broom. Keep the surface wet with LIQUI-HARD for a minimum of 30 minutes. (A range of 30 - 60 minutes may be required depending on temperature and conditions.) NOTE: Pay particular attention to porous and/or dry areas. These areas must be kept wet at all times with LIQUI-HARD. Once the surface begins to gel and becomes slippery, immediately spray the surface with a light water mist. Scrub the surface with a broom or mechanical scrubber to increase the penetration of the LIQUI-HARD. Continue to work the LIQUI-HARD into the surface for another 5 - 10 minutes or until LIQUI-HARD becomes gelled and slippery for a second time. At this time, THOROUGHLY flush the surface with water. During the flushing process, agitate the surface with a broom to aid in removal of the excess LIQUI-HARD. Remove all excess material with a mop or squeegee. Thoroughly squeegee the surface dry. If there are slippery patches, this is an indication that there is still excess LIQUI-HARD present. These areas should be re-flushed and squeegeed again until the entire surface is dry. (Extremely porous surfaces may require a second application.) WARNING: Failure to thoroughly wash and remove all excess material from floor surfaces may result in unsightly white stains. Immediately wash off over-spray from glass, aluminum, or highly polished surfaces with water to avoid etching of surfaces. For application assistance, contact W. R. MEADOWS at (800) 342-5976.

Burnishing: LIQUI-HARD can be burnished to a high sheen on steel trowel concrete floors. A high-speed burnisher (2000 - 2200 rpm) with appropriate maintenance pad is needed.

Drying Time: 2 to 4 hours. LIQUI-HARD dries very quickly on new, virgin concrete. Drying times may be extended on existing (old) concrete due to surface conditions. Restrict foot traffic for at least four hours; 12 hours is preferable.

Cleanup: While still wet, equipment may be cleaned quickly and easily with soap and water. Do not allow LIQUI-HARD to dry before flushing excess from surfaces.

PRECAUTIONS

DO NOT DILUTE. Do not apply if the temperature of the concrete is less than 35deg F (2deg C) or above 135deg F (57deg C). KEEP FROM FREEZING. If frozen, product should be thawed and agitated slightly prior to use.

HEALTH HAZARDS

LIQUI-HARD is non-combustible. (Flash point is greater than 210deg F.) Direct contact will result in irritation of the skin and eyes. Inhalation of product mist may result in respiratory irritation. Refer to Safety Data Sheet for complete health and safety information.

Comments: EVAPRE evaporation retardant is an economical, high quality, water-based compound. It is specifically designed to form a thin monomolecular film to reduce rapid moisture loss from the concrete surfaces prior to curing. EVAPRE provides a significant aid in producing high-quality concrete flatwork. Rapid evaporation of water is retarded, slab surface conditions are normalized, and workers can adhere more closely to established finishing schedules. EVAPRE is also VOC-compliant. EVAPRE significantly reduces plastic shrinkage and cracking, wind crusting, stickiness, and sponginess, which often cause poor and uneven surface texture. These conditions result when the hydration is more rapid than the movement of bleed water to the surface. EVAPRE effectively combats and minimizes the effects of rapid-drying conditions such as low humidity, low dew point, high winds, direct sunlight, hot weather, heated concrete, or placement of concrete in a heated enclosure or interior area during cold weather. The protective film shield disappears as soon as the concrete is no longer plastic.

USES

EVAPRE is ideal for use as an evaporation retardant for concrete surfaces where the evaporation rate exceeds the rate of bleeding. EVAPRE can be used with the MEADOW-PATCH and MEADOW-CRETE line of repair mortars from W. R. MEADOWS. It can also be used with condensed silica fume concrete, concrete containing fly ash, and most other cementitious products. When applying surface hardeners, EVAPRE can be used after screeding and after the first floating operation, if necessary.

NOTE: EVAPRE is specifically designed to fight off the destructive effects of early rapid evaporative moisture loss. Early rapid evaporative moisture loss is addressed in ACI Committee 305R-91, entitled Recommended Practice for Hot Weather Concreting. This report contains a chart on page five that depicts the effect of concrete and air temperatures, relative humidity, and wind velocity on the rate of evaporation of surface moisture from concrete. It provides a graphic method for estimating the loss of surface moisture for various weather conditions.

FEATURES/BENEFITS

• Significantly reduces plastic shrinkage and cracking caused by evaporation in low humidity, high temperatures, and high winds.
• Allows use of lower slump and lower water: cement ratio concrete.
• Provides smooth and durable concrete flatwork.
• Reduces wind crusting, stickiness, and sponginess, which often cause poor and uneven surface texture.
• Allows finishing crews to adhere to established schedules.
• Reduces overall cost because timing of finishing operations is less critical. VOC-compliant.
• Helps minimize surface cracking due to early water loss of silica fume concrete.
• Available in exclusive, easy-to-use, 45-ounce containers.

PACKAGING

• 45 Ounce (1,596.9 cm3) Containers
• 1 Gallon (3.8 Liter) Units
• 5 Gallon (18.93 Liter) Pails
• 55 Gallon (208.2 Liters) Drums

COVERAGE

One gallon (3.8 liter) of EVAPRE mixed with nine gallons (34.2 L) of water will cover 2000 - 4000 sq. ft. (50 - 100 m2/L). Quantity needed increases if additional coats are required. Forty-five ounce (1596.9 cm3) container pour into a 3.5 gallon sprayer, add water, and it is ready u00adto use.

SHELF LIFE

When stored indoors and in original, unopened containers at temperatures between 40deg to 90deg F, shelf life is a minimum of one year from date of manufacture.

SPECIFICATIONS

Complies with all current federal, state, and local maximum allowable VOC requirements, including U.S. EPA, SCAQMD, and OTC.

STEP 1: For the majority of applications, EVAPRE should be mixed at a ratio of one (1) part EVAPRE to nine (9) parts water. Agitate EVAPRE before mixing with water. Agitate the diluted solution again, before applying. NOTE: EVAPRE is available in an easy-to-use, exclusive 45-ounce container. Just pour into a 3.5 gallon sprayer, add water to fill, and go to work.

STEP 2: Apply EVAPRE with a commercial sprayer, such as a Chapin 1949. Use a Chapin 6-5797 or equivalent spray nozzle that produces a flow rate of .5 gallon per minute.

STEP 3: The EVAPRE diluted solution should be applied immediately after screeding and/or between finishing operations, as needed. Application is simplified by the fugitive pigment, which will disappear completely upon drying. Do not allow puddling. If puddling occurs, wipe up immediately and rinse with water.

STEP 4: Clean all equipment immediately after use with soap and water.

STEP 5: Finish concrete surface as required.

STEP 6: Cure concrete after bleed water or excess surface water has dissipated. The use of EVAPRE does not negate the need for a quality concrete curing or curing and sealing compound from W. R. MEADOWS.

NOTE: The residue remaining on the surface after finishing will not impair bonding or alter color. The protective shield usually lasts as long as the concrete is plastic. Therefore, all concrete surfaces must be properly cured as well.

PRECAUTIONS

Keep from freezing. EVAPRE should not be over-applied or worked excessively into the concrete surface during finishing operations. EVAPRE should not be used to re-temper the concrete. EVAPRE is not a curing agent. W. R. MEADOWS is not responsible for compatibility or results when EVAPRE is used with other manufactureru0092s products. Read and follow application information and use in accordance with the health and Safety information shown on the container label. Refer to Material Safety Data Sheet for complete health and safety information.

Comments: DUOGARD CITRUS is a citrus-scented, multi-reactive form release agent. It is composed of an organic chemical that reacts with the alkali content of the concrete to form a release film that effectively prevents the bonding of concrete to the form. In addition, DUOGARD CITRUS also contains a high molecular weight and a non-reactive, chemically inert ingredient to assist in clean and quick form release and removal. These exclusive ingredients combine the effectiveness of a chemically reactive type and an inert barrier type to provide a doubly effective separation DUO and the ultimate in form release.

USES

DUOGARD CITRUS can be used on various types of forms: wood, steel, fiberglass, aluminum, as well as fiber tubes. DO NOT USE on expanded polystyrene (foam), rubber, latex, or latex forms made from SBR or natural rubber. Wood forms should be saturated prior to first use. DUOGARD CITRUS increases the life of wood forms by penetrating into the wood to waterproof and prevent deterioration. It also reduces maintenance requirements on metal forms by forming a rustproof film that makes the metal form essentially self-cleaning and rust-free.

DUOGARD CITRUS should be applied to fiber tube forms even though they may be pre-coated. Tubes will strip much easier, even 60 to 90 days later. If tubes are stripped in 5 to 10 days, hand rubbing is greatly facilitated when tubes are coated with DUOGARD CITRUS.

DUOGARD CITRUS also cuts machine cleanup time because it minimizes concrete buildup. Pavers, trucks, mixers, spreader-finishers, buggies, chutes, and other types of equipment should be sprayed daily with DUOGARD CITRUS for easy cleanup and rust prevention. DUOGARD CITRUS can be applied on forms for pre-stressed and precast concrete to produce a better and cleaner cast. The product will not stain or discolor concrete.

Comments:

The 2200-WHITE series includes 2245-, 2250- and 2255-WHITE. These ready-to-use concrete curing compounds are high solids, white-pigmented, and poly-alphamethylstryene-based. These formulations were developed for various departments of transportation as premium-grade concrete curing compounds. The 2200-WHITE series offers rainfall protection typically within four hours of application, developing sufficient hardness and film integrity.

USES

The 2200-WHITE series is white-pigmented to reflect the sun's rays. This maintains cooler concrete, which reduces the expansive and contractive stresses that cause cracking during the hydration process. When properly applied, each product in the 2200-WHITE series provides a tough, smooth, uniform film with excellent adhesion to the fresh concrete surface, producing high quality, durable concrete.

FEATURES/BENEFITS

• Offers protection from de-icing salts on new concrete.

SHELF LIFE

When stored indoors in original, unopened containers at temperatures between 40 degrees and 90 degrees F optimum performance and best use is obtained within one year of date of manufacture.

APPLICATION

Surface Preparation: If the surface of the concrete is clean and free of foreign matter, no further preparation is required. If foreign matter, such as dirt and dust, has accumulated on the surface, it should be removed before applying the compound. If surface moisture has evaporated, as in the case of formed concrete, or the concrete is beginning to dry out, best curing is obtained if the concrete is wetted before application of a 2200-WHITE series product. NOTE: The concrete surface should be moist, but free of standing water. Once the concrete will accept walking workmen without marring, the surface is ready for the application of any 2200-WHITE series product.

Mixing: Any settling in the drums can be re-dispersed with gentle agitation prior to use. CAUTION: TO AVOID FOAMING, DO NOT MIX EXCESSIVELY.

Application Method: Apply curing compound to the surface of the concrete with spray equipment, such as a Chapin 1949 with 0.5 GPM spray nozzle, as soon as possible after the moisture has left the surface. Spray equipment should be capable of spraying a smooth, uniform coat. Workmen should not track across freshly poured concrete until after the concrete is coated with the curing compound and the film has dried thoroughly.

Drying Time: The product dries in approximately one hour. Restrict foot traffic for at least four hours.

Cleanup: Clean equipment promptly with mineral spirits or other suitable petroleum distillate.

PRECAUTIONS

Keep from freezing. Do not apply on interior surfaces. Do not apply when the temperature of the concrete is less than 40 F. DO NOT MIX WATER-BASED COMPOUNDS WITH ANY COMPOUND CONTAINING SOLVENT. SEPARATION WILL OCCUR.
