dura.cure SBC (Solvent Based Clear)

SBC – clear
SBW – white

Apply immediately after the exposed surface has sufficiently hardened to prevent marring by the application. This is especially important in warm or hot temperatures. In the case of formed surfaces, apply as soon as forms are stripped. If any part of the surface has dried out, it should be wetted down immediately preceding the application of dura.cure SBC or dura.cure SBW., but do not apply while free water remains on the surface. Surface should be saturated but free of surface water, quick drying occurs in areas on concrete exposed to draughts, excessive heat and sun.

Coverage depends upon texture and porosity of surface. Maximum recommended coverage for effective curing is 9 m² per liter.

dura.cure SBC and particularly dura.cure SBW, must be thoroughly stirred prior to application. Apply uniformly and thinly by spray, brush or roller at a coverage no greater than 9 m² per liter. Do not add thinners. Use a garden-type pressure sprayer or a wide short-nap roller to achieve thin, uniform application. This is important as uneven application results in amottled appearance as the floor ages. Initially, application has a temporary mirror-like sheen which visually helps the applier obtain uniform coverage of all areas and eliminates wasteful double application. Drying time is 1,5 hours. The treated surface is non tracking when dry.

For cleaning or removing SBC or SBW from rollers or brushes, use a.b.e.^® super brush cleaner.

Protect surface against traffic and spillage until cured.

The curing compound will be dura.cure SBC, a solvent based resin-curing compound or dura.cure SBW with a white reflective finish. The curing compound must conform to the requirements of the ASTM C309 for liquid membrane forming compounds and applied in accordance with a.b.e.^® Construction Chemicals’ recommendations.

dura.cure SBW and dura.cure SBC are supplied in 25 liter and 200 litre yield metal containers.

All dura.cure related products have a shelf life of 12 months if kept in a dry, cool store in the original, unopened packs. If stored at high temperatures and/or high humidity conditions, the shelf life may be reduced.

dura.cure SBC and dura.cure SBW are toxic and flammable. Ensure thorough ventilate in the working area during application and drying. Avoid flames in vicinity. Avoid inhalation of dust and contact  Avoid inhalation of dust and contact with skin and eyes. Suitable protective clothing, gloves, eye protection and respiratory protective equipment should be worn. The use of barrier creams provides additional skin protection. If contact with skin occurs, wash with water and soap. Splashes into eyes should be washed immediately with plenty of clean water and medical advice sought. Cured dura.cure SBC and dura.cure SBW are inert and harmless.
