ChemMasters Inc. has introduced a new concrete cure and seal product for use on driveways, garage floors and sidewalks. Silencure SRT significantly simplifies the contractor’s job by providing a curing compound and penetrating siloxane sealer in a single product which can be applied on broom finished, precast, hand or machine troweled surfaces. Silencure SRT works effectively on newly placed concrete and can also be used on older unsealed concrete. Because it can be applied to fresh concrete, it eliminates the need for water or resin curing, stripping and the traditional 30 day waiting period before a silane or siloxane treatment, greatly reducing labor as well as visits to the jobsite.
Silencure SRT represents an advanced curing and penetrating sealer technology which can be used on a most concrete finishes, making it easier, faster and less costly to cure concrete and provide long lasting protection against damage from freeze/thaw cycling and deicing chemicals, all in one application. It is a patented product that utilizes a pure acrylic copolymer compound for curing combined with a penetrating siloxane sealer. When applied to newly-placed concrete, it produces a non-yellowing clear continuous film, which effectively cures fresh concrete while providing a tough protective acrylic film to the surface. Additionally, Silencure SRT contains a proprietary blend of siloxanes which penetrate capillary pores of fresh concrete to form a silicone matrix which effectively prevents water and salt penetration.
