1. DESCRIPTION
Goodcrete Deep Penetrating Sealer(DPS) is an inorganic liquid crystalline waterproofing, it’s colorless, odorless, environment friendly, nonflamm-
able and easy to use. The inner alkali content of concrete is 360times more than the surface’s, through the pores, DPS penetrates into the concrete structures, chemically reacts with the free alkali presented in the concrete and forms silicate gel,which seals the pores and micro cracks, blocks water and harmful substances’ ingress; when water losses, silicate gel shrinks into active crystals and becomes the integral part of the concrete, permanent blocks concrete structure, increases concrete density and strength, thus, gives the concrete structures all-sided and permanent protection, such as, waterproofing/damp roofing/anti-seepage/anti-stain/anti-corrosion/anti-aging, etc., so, DPS is not only a kind of waterproofing, but also a concrete protective solution.

3. ADVANTAGES
v Environment friendly;
v Permanent Waterproofing, damp-proofing, anti- seepage;
v Protecting the reinforced concrete against the corrosion of acid, alkali and chloride ion;
v Excellent resistance to hydrostatic pressure;
v Improving concrete structures’ resistance of high temperature and freeze/thaw cycle damage;
v Self sealing ≤0.3mm hairline cracks repeatedly;
v Restraining the growth of moss and mold;
v Extending the life time of the concrete structures and its finishing coating;
v Easy, fast and safe to use, can up to 1500 -2000 m2/man per day;
v Can greatly reduce the cost of labor, repair and maintenance;
v Can be applied on both old concrete and new concrete, and don’t change the concrete’s color and structure;
v Inorganic products, permanent functions.

5. APPLICABLE PLACES
Almost can be used for all concrete constructions that need waterproofing, moisture proofing, anti-seepage, whatever new or old, below and above ground, indoors and outdoors.
But, strongly recommended for the infrastructure, industrial and commercial buildings, such as,
Subways, Civil Air Defense, Bridges, Decks, Dams, Tunnels, Reservoirs, Underground Passages, Plants, Warehouses, etc.
6. SURFACE PREPARATION
Freshly Finished Concrete
No treatment need, but application need after at least 7days of the concrete casting.
Existing Concrete
1. Cracks >0.3mm, should be repaired.
2. To sweep, scrub, or strip the concrete to remove any surface contamination or film, ensure DPS can efficiently penetrate into the surface.
7. DIRECTION OF USING
1. Shake well before use, do not dilute, do not mix.
2. Apply with low/medium-pressure sprayer, brush or roller to spray/brush/roll directly and evenly on the clean concrete surface, air temperature at 4-35℃, and relative humidity 10-90% is the best.
3. When the surface become semi-dry after the first time spraying, proceed the second spraying.
4. Wash the sprayers etc tools with water after the construction completing.
Generally, the penetrating time of DPS is 1-3h, 3h or surface becomes dry after construction, the floor can walk, and after 7days can be backfilled or started following works.
Note: When rain and strong wind, can’t construct in the open air, and avoid the surface suffer from water and rain within 24h after construction.
Coverage
Approximately 150-200square feet/gallon, or 3-5m2/kg(2 times
spraying).
Please Note: Variations in
concrete quality, porosity, job site conditions, temperature and relative
humidity
will affect coverage rates and drying times.
8. LIMITATIONS
A. Not suitable for lightweight blocks, porous masonry etc similar products.
B. Surfaces previously treated with curing or sealing
|
C. Don’t use DPS to seal cracks, joints or gaps.
9. STORAGE AND LIFE
1. Store in cool place, do not mix with other
chemicals;
2. Keep this product out of the reach of children;
3. Unlimited shelf life under sealed condition.
