EQUIPMENT NEEDED

Medium- to high-pressure airless sprayer equipped with a 24-inch wand and a .019 fan tip spray jet. (Note: when applying as a cure, use only medium pressure.)

HOW TO APPLY

Note: In hot climates, mist-wet the surface with water and remove any puddles prior to application.

1. Use medium- to high-pressure airless sprayer complete with a 24-inch wand and a .019 fan tip spray jet.

2. Hold spray tip 6 inches from surface.

3. Apply to the point of saturation at the rate of 200 sq. feet per gallon with an overlapping spray pattern of approximately 10% to 15%.

4. Begin applying at the lowest level elevation. For example, walls and slopes should be applied side to side, from the bottom up.

5. Wax, paint or anything else restricting access to concrete's interior must be chemically or mechanically removed for DENSIFIER to penetrate.

6. Areas of high porosity have a faster penetration rate. These areas appear dry immediately after spraying and will require additional product.

7. Do not apply DENSIFIER on frozen substrate or when temperature is near freezing.

8. When applying paint, adhesives or other coatings, wait 24 hours after sealing with DENSIFIER, then flush surface with water and allow to dry before coating.

9. For very oily/greasy surfaces, use DENSIFIER PLUS CLEANER (or clean with detergent and high pressure hot water prior to application).

10. Special note for concrete block: Block quality, cement content and porosity size can vary widely. Some may never be completely waterproofed and will only be dampproofed. Spray twice.

11. DENSIFIER may etch glass or dull shiny aluminum and can be difficult to remove from other surfaces once it dries. Cover surrounding surfaces or rinse immediately if sprayed.

12. DENSIFIER is safe to use and environmentally friendly. We do recommend use of a painter's mask during application. Refer to MSDS.

HOW TO APPLY AS A CURE

1. Follow normal application instructions, except use a medium-pressure airless spray unit to avoid disturbing the top. For broom finished concrete that has not been allowed to harden, you may also use a non-atomizing spray apparatus such as a pump-tank sprayer.

2. Apply to the newly placed surface as soon as is practical following surface finish.

3. Apply at the rate of 150 to 200 square feet per gallon for broom finished concrete; 300 to 350 square feet per gallon on hard or steel troweled concrete.

4. Compatibility issues: If calcium chloride is believed to be in the concrete, Densifier is likely to treat it as a contaminant and push it up out of the concrete, causing a whitening effect. There are also known compatibility issues with the Rheocrete admixture (corrosion inhibitor) manufactured by Master Builders, Inc. If either of these substances is used in the concrete, it is best to wait several weeks before applying Densifier so that this whitening does not occur.
