The space between particles leaves untreated concrete or masonry subject to penetration by moisture, oils, acids, etc.
There are many types of foreign matter that is cancerous to concrete and masonry. Foreign matter is any acid, alkali or oil found in the concrete and masonry or found in such items as lactic acid in milk, oil, alkali, chemicals, etc. These cancerous substances imbed themselves in the masonry.
RESTORE-USA Concrete & Masonry Sealer™ applied to the masonry, concrete, plaster and stucco will penetrate and by a progressive chemical reaction, which is started at the surface, binds all component parts of the masonry into a more dense or solid mass. As this reaction takes place, all free lime and alkali are neutralized. As the masonry increases in density it becomes waterproofed, resistant to acid, oil and grease. RESTORE-USA Concrete & Masonry Sealer™ stops dusting, rutting, spading, prevents static. This process will stop cracking, crumbling, seepage and pitting while increasing the density of the masonry. RESTORE-USA Concrete & Masonry Sealer™ also increases the tensile strength of the concrete as it fills all the voids preventing any penetration of water or contaminants from the surface either horizontally or vertically. In regards to the slab, RESTORE-USA Concrete & Masonry Sealer™ will not allow any vapor emission or water to come up from the ground.
According to U.S. Testing Laboratories, the interior of a piece of concrete contains a minimum or 361 times the amount of alkali as compared to the surface area. Therefore, RESTORE-USA Concrete & Masonry Sealer™, which uses the existing alkali to affect the cure, is 361 more times effective than any surface sealer and is also permanent. Anything applied only to the surface of the masonry must eventually come off due to aeration and deterioration. RESTORE-USA Concrete & Masonry Sealer™, which is locked into the interior, cannot deteriorate or wear off. Instead it cures, waterproofs and seals the masonry permanently.
After treating the masonry with RESTORE-USA Concrete & Masonry Sealer™ no foreign substance can penetrate into the masonry and will stay on the surface where it can be washed off easily. All masonry treated with RESTORE-USA Concrete & Masonry Sealer™ will stop disintegrating. You will no longer be able to remove a portion of the concrete, brick, and stucco etc. surface by running your finger across the surface based on the fact that component parts of the masonry are solidified into one mass, rather than a billion independent particles.

Maintain unmixed material in closed containers in protected storage at 40-100°F/4.44-33.7°C.
* DO NOT STORE IN STRONG SUNLIGHT, AS CONTAINER WILL EXPAND*
SECTION V - SURFACE APPLICATION:
Good surface preparation is essential to a satisfactory coating. Surfaces to be coated should be clean and dry. Remove all dirt, dust, oil, grease, mildew, rust and loose or cracked paint or other contamination by first cleaning the surface with RESTORE-USA Concrete & Masonry Cleaner™. Rinse thoroughly with water.
SECTION VI - APPLICATION PROCEDURE:
RESTORE-USA Concrete & Masonry Sealer™ should not be applied if temperature is 0°C/32°F or less. Applicator should always wear goggles and rubber gloves. In enclosed areas with no ventilation a dust mask would be recommended. Apply with pump sprayer or Flo-Jet pump 3.6 gallon per minute. When applied on vertical surfaces, back roll excess sealer. Theoretical coverage is approximately 150-200 square feet per gallon. Allow drying for 2 hours. Allow 5-7 days for completion of curing process and penetration after application. Prior to recoating allow 24-36 hours. Any coating may be applied over RESTORE-USA Concrete & Masonry Sealer™. Wash all tools and equipment with RESTORE-USA Concentrate Degreaser™ and water as soon as possible. Any spills may be cleaned with RESTORE-USA Concentrate Degreaser™ and water before it dries. We recommended not ponding product on the surface, even though it will dry clear, use 90° degree angles for maximum penetration to the cementatious matrix. Always test product before application to surfaces. All product information and application procedures are available on line at www.restore-usa.com.
