This penetrating lithium silicate treatment reacts with the concrete to produce insoluble calcium silicate hydrate within the concrete pores. The increased surface hardness imparted by LS reduces dusting and simplifies maintenance producing a cleaner, healthier environment.
Will not contribute to surface ASR.
VOC Compliance: Consolideck LS is compliant with the following national, state, and district AIM VOC regulations:
US Environmental Protection Agency
California Air Resources Board SCM Districts
South Coast Air Quality Management District
Maricopa County, AZ
Northeast Ozone Transport Commission
Advantages:
Easy, one step application. No scrubbing. No flushing. No caustic wastewater
May be applied to broom finishd, steel trowelled, power trowelled or brunished concrete finishes
Patented formulation penetrates and reacts quickly to produce better initial and ultimate hardness
Tested and conforms to California Collaborative for High Performance School Indoor Air Quality standards. Use can contribute to LEED for Schools points (EQ Credit 4)
Provides better abrasion resistance than conventional hardeners
Produces a fast surface glass which improves with traffic and maintenance
Improves performance, appearance and light reflectance of new or old concrete
Reduces application time and costs of diamond polishing operations
Will not contribute to surface crazing. High lithium content combats surface ASR
Litium will not absorb water or contribute to floor sweating
Gloss and hardness do not reduce slip resistance
Breathable and UV stable. Will not yellow, discolor, peel, or flake
