About CONCRETE DESIFIRE SODIUM SILICATE
Method of application:
- Surface must be clean /dry. Prepare a small test patch to check coverage. Natural stone is unique & color enhancement is possible. Shake well before use. Avoid direct sunlight & moisture untill the development of repellency. To ensure deep penetration apply 2-3 coats. Apply each coat fully and evenly with the brush, roller, spraying device or fluff free cloth. Remove surplus material with suitable cloth or fabric. Repellency begins after a few minutes but the product is fully cured after 12-24 hrs.

FAQ's of CONCRETE DESIFIRE SODIUM SILICATE:
Q: How is CONCRETE DESIFIRE SODIUM SILICATE applied to concrete surfaces?
A: The product is typically sprayed or brushed directly onto clean concrete surfaces, allowing it to penetrate and react for densification and waterproofing. Ensure surfaces are free from loose particles, oil, or contaminants for optimal results.
Q: What benefits does CONCRETE DESIFIRE SODIUM SILICATE provide to concrete structures?
A: It significantly increases surface hardness, durability, and resistance to water, chemicals, and abrasion. Treated concrete is less prone to cracking and dusting, and the surface remains protected for extended periods.
Q: When should this product be used during concrete construction or maintenance?
A: It is effective on both new and existing concrete surfaces. For new construction, use after curing; for maintenance, it can be applied anytime as long as the surface is clean and dry.
Q: Is CONCRETE DESIFIRE SODIUM SILICATE safe for the environment and users?
A: Yes, it is environmentally friendly, non-toxic, and non-hazardous under normal usage conditions. It contains no harmful fumes or odors and poses no poisoning risks.
Q: Where is CONCRETE DESIFIRE SODIUM SILICATE suitable for use?
A: It can be used on floors, walls, precast elements, and structures in industrial, commercial, and residential settings. Its compatibility with most building materials makes it versatile across projects.
Q: What is the shelf life and proper storage method for this product?
A: It maintains efficacy for 24 months when stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight in sealed HDPE containers. After opening, reseal the product to extend shelf life up to 12 months.
Q: Does usage require any special precautions or equipment?
A: No special equipment is necessary; standard protective gear like gloves and goggles is recommended for handling. There are no hazardous properties under normal use, making application straightforward.
