About this product
WATER-BASED, WAX-BASED CONCRETE CURING COMPOUND
The 1600-WHITE series of water-based, white-pigmented concrete curing compounds are wax-based dispersions with selected white pigments. When properly applied, 1600-WHITE forms a premium-grade membrane, which optimizes water retention. The white pigment reflects the sun's rays to help keep the concrete surface cooler and prevent excessive heat buildup.
USES
1600-WHITE is ideal for application on exterior, horizontal surfaces, such as highways, airports, and street and curb paving. 1600-WHITE is not recommended for residential applications. The product provides optimum curing when protection from the sun's heat is desired.
FEATURES/BENEFITS
When properly applied, provides a premium-grade film, which optimizes water retention.
Protects by reflecting the sun's rays to keep the concrete surface cooler and prevent excessive heat buildup, which can cause thermal cracking.
Furnished as a ready-to-use, true water-based compound.
Produces hard, dense concrete ... minimizes hair checking, thermal cracking, dusting and other defects.
Offers a compressive strength significantly greater than improperly or uncured concrete.
Increases tensile strength for greater resistance to cracking and surface crazing.
Improves resistance to the abrasion and corrosive actions of salts and chemicals ... minimizes shrinkage.
Applies quickly and easily with conventional commercial spray equipment.
VOC compliant … VOC content is Less than 100 g/L
