A water based primer for sealing lime efflorescence
which can bleed through acrylic paints. Also aids the curing mechanism of
concrete.
TYPICAL USES: Exterior cementitious finishes have a high lime content
which can effloresce to the surface, creating a white layer of limestone.
Under certain situations this can leach through acrylic paints to the outer
surface, which is especially noticeable with dark colours. LIME STOP is a
very effective in reducing migration of lime.
PERFORMANCE: Is applied directly to new concrete or cement surfaces
and will promote the cure and sealing of the surface.
LIMITATIONS: If the weather conditions and temp are adverse the LIME
STOP will not cure correctly and completely. Under these conditions the
product will not be fully effective in blocking the lime migration. Do not
apply if the air and surface temperature during application and drying is
likely to fall below 10ºC. Do not apply in damp humid conditions. Is
designed to be over coated. If over coating with dark colours, either allow
concrete to cure 4-6 days or apply 2 coats of LIME STOP.
