Dust-Proofing and Densifying Flatwork Floors:

To add extra strength and dust-proofing to your finished floors:

  1. Clean all saw cuts by vacuuming up the dust.
  2. Apply Protec III: Original at the same rate of 400 square feet per US gallon (9.8 square meters per liter).
  3. Monitor the surface every 10 minutes after each application, spreading out any puddles until the product has absorbed.
  4. Apply additional coats as desired, ensuring each coat is fully absorbed and dried before applying the next.
  5. Immediately ready for use: Your floor is usable as soon as the product has been absorbed.

Additional Details:

  1. No washing is required before applying more coats. Since Protec III: Original is non-membrane forming, simply vacuuming up the dust on your floor is sufficient.
  2. Achieving a dust-proof surface: The concrete will become dust-proof over time with regular traffic polishing the floor. For immediate results, you can burnish the surface to create a permanent shine.

How It Works:

Protec III: Original works by reacting with the alkalis in concrete.

This reaction uses the left-over soluble minerals in your concrete to prevent white efflorescence from coming out and staining, improves the paste to help you finish, and keeps moisture in your surface to prevent plastic shrinkage cracking.
