Invisible penetrating stain blocking masonry sealer for DENSE SURFACES
Application Guide
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Before use on a job, thoroughly test this product in an
inconspicuous area to assure performance and
appearance. Use only in well ventilated areas.
SURFACE PREPARATION:
All surfaces to be treated must be clean and free from
dirt, moss, mildew, laitance, efflorescence, and any other
contaminate that may interfere with the penetration or
reaction of Stain Block Elite masonry sealer to the applied surface.
Remove all dirt, wax, oil, paint or sealers with appropriate
cleaner, chemical stripper or abrasive blasting. If muriatic
acid has been used the surface must be flushed with
clean water and neutralized with a pH neutralizer. After
cleaning, allow surface to dry 24 hours prior to sealer
application. Allow new concrete to cure for at least 14
days before application of sealer. Protect greenery from
over spray.
APPLICATION:
Stain Block Elite masonry sealer can be applied with a sponge, brush,
roller, or most types of spray equipment. On dense
surfaces one coat is all that is required to seal, protect
the surface. Additional coats will give more protection
and higher gloss. If a second coat is desired, apply
before the first coat is. For small areas, a pump-up
garden sprayer is convenient. For large commercial
installations an airless spray system is recommended.
Do not apply Stain Block Elite masonry sealer during wet weather or
when surface temperature exceeds 90�F. Application
to a damp surface or incompletely cured concrete may
cause a hazy appearance or loss of adhesion. Air and
surface temperature should be between 50� and 90�F
for 24 hours following application. Additional gloss and
protection are available with added applications. After
each coat perform �water penetration test� (see below).
Brush ................................... synthetic bristle brush.
Roller ............................ "1/4" nap lambs wool roller.
Airless sprayer tip size ................... 0.013" - 0.015�
IMPORTANT NOTE:

WATER PENETRATION TEST:
Drop a small amount of water on the sealed surface. If
water penetration occurs or if water does not bead up
on the surface, the application additional sealer is
required.
