Contop S
Contop S a ready to use economical liquid floor hardener and dust proofer. It impregnates the surface of the concrete causing a reaction between the silicate solution and components of the cement to deposit siliceous materials which close the pores. The end result being a hardened and dust proof surface.


USES & ADVANTAGES

As a replacement to traditional shake on monolithic floor hardeners. Providing a hardened dust free surface for new and old concrete floors and granolithic paving.

Advantages include:
• Penetrates to a depth of 1 - 1.5 cm.
• Hard dust free finish.
• Permeability of the concrete surface is reduced. • Acid/chemical resistance of the concrete surface is increased.
• Ready to use.
• Replaces shake on floor hardeners.
• Easy to apply by contractor. No need for special applicators.
• Reduced cost over shake on hardeners.
• No debond as with shake on hardeners.
Appearance: Transparent
Type: Sodium Silicate
Specific Gravity: 1.12 kg./L

Contop S is ready to use and can be sprinkled over the surface with a watering can or by soft broom. Contop S should be spread evenly and brushed in well. Bubbles should not be allowed to form. For most concrete 2 coats are sufficient. However, for particularly porous concrete athird coat may be required. 24 hours should be allowed between application of each coat. After the final treatment the surface should be washed down with water. Agitate before use.


IMPORTANT NOTES

The surface treatment of the concrete by power floating or vacuum dewatering can make the surface of the concrete very dense and impermeable. After such treatment it is advisable to test a small area of concrete prior to the application of Contop S to ensure that impregnation occurs and that the surface is not made glassy or white.


COVERAGE RATES

Depending on the porosity up to 6 m2/litre/coat.

Contop S is based on sodium silicate. Wear protective clothing and void skin contact. If contacted wash well with water. If eyes are effected wash with clean water and obtain medical attention.
