Clear Guard® Cure and Seal
Clear Guard™ Cure and Seal is a solvent-based, VOC compliant, non-yellowing, curing, and sealing compound for newly poured and existing concrete surfaces. The product is formulated for curing and sealing uncolored concrete, integrally colored concrete, and color hardened (shake-on) concrete, stamped or stenciled concrete, and cementitious overlays. It is recommended for use with Uni-Mix® Colorant and Uni-Mix® Liquid integral coloring systems, Perma-Cast® Shake-on Color Hardener, Perma-Cast® Sierra Stain™, T1000™ Fine Overlay, and T1000™ Stampable Overlay. Clear Guard™ Cure and Seal is compatible with Color Guard™ Cure and Seal. It is suitable for residential or commercial projects, interior floors, exterior hardscapes, and vertical surfaces.
Clear Guard™ Cure and Seal visually enhances the concrete color, protects the surface from dirt and staining, and minimizes the affects of de-icing salts and exposure to gas or oil. It is well suited for application to cured concrete to prevent absorption or penetration of many fats, oils, greases, aliphatic solvents, salts, acids, and other chemicals. By preventing penetration of these compounds, Clear Guard™ Cure and Seal provides good economical protection for floors and hardscapes, thereby reducing maintenance costs.
As a curing compound, it improves the surface strength, abrasion resistance, and durability of the concrete, and reduces the potential for plastic cracking. It forms a moisture barrier that prevents free lime in the concrete from migrating and reacting at the surface, forming a dust residue. Curing with Clear Guard™ Cure and Seal also provides interim construction protection from most oils, greases, chemical spills, and from the adhesion of mortar splashes. Final cleanup costs are reduced and the resulting concrete surface appearance is greatly enhanced. Clear Guard™ Cure and Seal can also be applied to old concrete, terrazzo, brick, and masonry tiles to dust proof and impart stain and chemical resistance.
