Driveways can be a source of many concrete
problems outside your home. Anything from algae growth to road salt and
freeze/thaw (spall) can be problems. Our sealers will prevent these problems and
keep your driveways looking great.
HydraLoc is our first line of
defense against outdoor concrete problems. HydraLoc is a
penetrating sealer that will lock up the pores of the concrete. This stops
problems with salts and other contaminates that may stain or pit your concrete.
CS-2O is a penetrating top
sealer and when used in conjunction with HydraLoc forms an impenetrable barrier
for your driveway. The CS-2O will bead liquids on the surface
of smooth concrete making for easy cleanup of oils and other spills that you may
have. (On broom finished concrete you get the same protection but the surface of
the concrete does not allow the liquid beads to form.)
What must I do to apply it?
First you need a clean surface, pressure washing the surface is preferred. After the surface is clean you will
need a garden type pump up sprayer. Temperatures must be above 35
degrees throughout sealing and curing process.
1. Wet the surface of the concrete with water but
do no leave standing water on the surface when applying the sealer.
2. Apply the sealer with wet applications. 2
applications for HydraLoc with CS-2O over the
top and 3 applications for HydraLoc alone.
3. After the first application HydraLoc
is complete start over with the second application HydraLoc
perpendicular to the first, and if needed apply a third application of HydraLoc after the second is completed.
4. Hose of the concrete with clean water 48 hours
after the last application of HydraLoc.
5. Allow HydraLoc to cure for 10
days, concrete must be dry when applying CS-2O.
6. When concrete is dry then apply two
consecutive applications of CS-2O. The first application of CS-2O must still be damp when the second application is
applied. Apply in sections if necessary.
7. Stay off the application of CS-2O
for 36 hours.
PLEASE READ EXCEPTIONS
Paint or other products must be removed from the
concrete. Usually this requires shot blasting, sand blasting or dry ice
blasting.
Colored concrete cannot be sealed with HydraLoc.
It will discolor the concrete. You can use either the CS-2O or
the CS-2O Plus.
