Description
Saltguard® WB protects horizontal and vertical surfaces from moisture intrusion and chemical attack of chloride salts.
In coastal areas, Saltguard® WB protects against salt air by screening chlorides from penetrating through concrete to the reinforcing steel. Saltguard® WB reduces rebar corrosion and surface spalling caused by water-carried salts. Use Saltguard® WB on horizontal surfaces such as driveways, sidewalks, and tile, brick and sandstone pavers. Provides excellent protection for retaining walls, bridge pilings and other vertical areas exposed to de-icing salts.
Saltguard® WB is an effective alternative to conventional solvent-based silanes and siloxanes. Saltguard® WB penetrates and chemically bonds deep within the concrete or masonry substrate to provide long-lasting protection against moisture intrusion and water-related staining or deterioration. Properly applied, Saltguard® WB produces no surface film. Treated surfaces keep their natural breathing characteristics and natural appearance.
COVERAGE RATE
50-300 sq ft/gal. See Product Data Sheet for variations per substrate.
FEATURES
- Treated surfaces “breathe” – doesn’t trap moisture.
- Effective protection against de-icing salts and salt air.
- Penetrates to produce long-lasting protection on vertical or horizontal surfaces.
- Water-based formula minimizes explosion and fire hazards associated with alcohol- or solvent-based water repellents.
- Resists water penetration when applied over existing shrinkage cracks of 0.02 inches or less.
