Application Information
Instructions for use

Pre–application

BETOCURE S should be stirred before application. Product is ready for use directly from the drum and should not be diluted with water. BETOCURE S is not a film forming product but should fully saturate the concrete for maximum effect. Perform enough application to fully saturate the concrete without leaving puddle.

Surface should be free of water. In case of horizontal surfaces, the product should be applied as soon as the bleed water has evaporated from the surface.

Application

BETOCURE S should be applied uniformly by sprayer, brush, roller or soft bristled broom to the surface of fresh concrete. For best results, use spray for application. Application should be at the rate of 15m2/liter. The coating produces a light duty surface. It is the responsibility of the user to adjust to curing rate to properly regulate the hydration of the concrete. Two applications maybe required. BETOCURE S should be applied to newly hardened concrete immediately after demolding. It should never be applied on concrete which has started to dry out, otherwise the hydration mechanism will be seriously impaired. Do not allow compaction or vibrating acts close to the sprayed area as this will break the freshly sprayed film.

Overcoating

Over coating can be done without removal of curing compound provided the application is within the specified coverage rate.

Clean

Equipment and tools used should be cleaned promptly with water.

Recommendations

  • Use only on green or recently poured clean concrete
  • Protect areas not intended for coverage. If contact occurs, remove immediately using water and a cloth or brush
  • Do not allow the product to puddle. White residue may form if BETOCURE S is over applied
