Concrete Slab Sealers

Foundation Armor manufactures two sealers for concrete slabs:

Armor L3000 Sealer: Great for slabs that will be left exposed or will be polished. Great chemical resistance and maintains the natural look of concrete.

Armor S2000 Sealer: Great for slabs with moisture, or a potential for, moisture issues. Also great for slabs where flooring will be in stalled, or where the concrete will be painted, stained, or coated.

How To Seal Your Slab

Clean the concrete slab. Make sure it is free of paints, sealers, stains and other chemicals that could prevent proper absorption into the concrete.

Dilute the Foundation Armor sealer with the specified amount of water.

Using a garden sprayer, saturate the concrete with the diluted solution.

Let dry. If using the Armor S2000 sealer, a second coat will be required.

How They Works

Water plus cement produces Calcium Silicate Hydrate (C-S-H) in a process known as Hydration. C-S-H is the binding system for concrete. Combined with the aggregate, C-S-H gives concrete its hardness and strength.

A reactive byproduct of the Hydration process is Calcium Hydroxide. When a Foundation Armor concrete sealer is applied to concrete, it reacts with the existing Calcium Hydroxide to produce additional C-S-H. This additional C-S-H is what provides the increased hardness and densification by up to 45%, and water resistance up to 100 PSI.

Foundation Armor concrete sealers have the highest percentage of reactive material, and are optimized to make the silicate available more quickly for more rapid C-S-H formation.
