Cure & Seal 250X

VOC Compliant Sealer

What is Cure & Seal?

Cure & Seals take the properties of both curing compounds and membrane forming sealers and combines them to yield the best performance properties of both. Where normal curing resins last only weeks before they wear off, some Cure & Seals will last up to 5 years, depending on which product is applied. When applied correctly, Cure & Seals form a hard, shiny and durable surface that resists all waterborne contaminants and protects the concrete through its infancy and early life.

Why Cure?

Concrete curing is the satisfactory maintenance of adequate moisture around and in newly placed concrete.

Curing compound applied immediately following placement allows concrete to develop the necessary desired strength and durability. Concrete exposed to the elements is especially sensitive to improper curing because the strength development can be significantly reduced from excessive surface evaporation and exposure to freezing.

Why Seal?

Concrete sealers are used on concrete to close the pores in the concrete surface so it will resist water, de-icing salts, and other aggressive chemicals. Sealers are often used to prevent soiling, resist staining, facilitate the ease of cleaning, brighten concrete colors and exposed aggregates, and produce a water-resistant surface. Sealers may also be used to dustproof concrete surfaces. Superior quality sealers usually consist of pure forms of acrylic resin that are non-styrenated and non-yellowing. Quality concrete sealers will last three to five years and require minimal maintenance.

Cure & Seal 250X is a low VOC ready to use acrylic copolymer designed to cure concrete and provide a durable protective coating for both interior and exterior architectural and exposed concrete surfaces.

Cure & Seal 250X is an acrylic, water white, fast drying, sprayable sealer formulated with a special solvent that ensures compliance with applicable VOC regulations. It forms a tough, impervious bond to concrete that is resistant to fresh cement alkalis, salts, most stains and dirt penetration.

Advantages

Cure & Seal 250X has a low VOC content and is designed to provide a clear curing film to promote proper cure and hardening of new concrete and to enhance all concrete surfaces, both new and existing, by developing an abrasion resistant, glossy film. Cure & Seal 250X, when applied to architectural panels as a sealer, prevents premature weathering and enhances the beauty of exposed aggregate. Cure & Seal 250X protects terrazzo floors, concrete tiles, colored concrete and exposed panels against discoloration caused by efflorescence, dust, air pollutants and spillage of mild chemicals and petroleum products. A two-coat application on exterior surfaces will minimize the possibility of scaling.
