SECURE 33 Wax Emulsion
Product Description
SECURE 33 is a unique wax based emulsion specifically developed to
enable improved curing of sub-base concrete pavements with less risk of
surface cracking.It is a quick drying product with superior stability and
spray characteristics allowing for excellent film uniformity and coverage.
The technical attributes of SECURE 33 provide enhanced management and
control of curing operations.
Product Usage
Method : Apply evenly as a continuous film typically
at 1 lt / 5 m2 using a low pressure mechanical or
hand held sprayer or soft nap roller when sheen on
the concrete surface has disappeared or when
bleeding is complete.
Industry standards and specifications for application
should always be adhered to where applicable.
DO NOT apply by brush and avoid any contact with
finished surface.
SECURE 33 is NOT RECOMMENDED for use on
surfaces that require subsequent topping, renders,
paintwork or line marking etc.
Do not dilute product.
Product standing for lengthy periods should be
checked for any separation and agitated prior to use
if required.
Clean up - Spray equipment should be adequately
flushed with water immediately after use to avoid
internal deposits of wax. Dried films may be cleaned
easily with Vicchem Bio-Dispersol, hot water, steam
or mineral solvent.
Key Points
· High concentration of solids provides good coverage and film
thickness that slows moisture loss.
· Superior stability reduces the risk of separation in storage and
subsequent risk of faulty application.
· Good sprayability enables uniform application with less down time
due to tip and filter blockages.
· Fast drying time provides improved operational flexibility in variable
weather conditions and reduced run off due to unexpected rainfall.
· Good slip resistance offers higher level of safety to site personnel.
· Available in clear, white & black versions to match performance
with seasonal temperature variation.
· Not classified as a Dangerous Good enabling more flexible and
convenient storage, handling and transportation.
· Non Toxic providing high level of safety to operators and environment
· RTA compliant. SECURE 33 meets the requirements of AS3799-1998
when applied at the recommended rate.
