CHALK-FORCE™ is an epoxy-acrylic, high performance surface conditioner and chalk sealer that is designed to provide a firm surface for application of latex paints and coatings. It seals high pH (pH of 13 or less) cementitious surfaces. It eliminates the 28 day curing period for fresh cementitious surfaces. This single component, fully crosslinked emulsion polymer product, provides many of the attributes of more expensive polyurethane and epoxy products. This is a low V.O.C. waterborne formulation of new technology that gives the convenience of water clean up while surpassing the durability and performance of solvent based products. It has excellent penetration on porous surfaces and superior adhesion on non-porous or compatible previously coated surfaces. It binds chalky, powdery or porous surfaces, especially badly weathered cement or stucco. CHALK-FORCE™ has excellent efflorescence and alkali resistance.
CHALK-FORCE™ penetrates the existing surface, bonding the previous coating back together, leaving a chalk free, moisture resistant surface that can be recoated in 4 hours under normal drying conditions.
CHALK-FORCE™ provides ease of application, quick drying time, and allows all top coatings to form a permanent bond for long life without fear of peeling due to poor substrate adhesion.
