New Product Announcement: Concrete ‘Anti-Stick’ Coating
In what is being touted as a world first, California surface protection company Master’s Touch Global has recently launched a new “permanent concrete anti-stik coating” for the concrete industry.
According to reports, MT-447 Concrete Anti-Stik has been formulated to reduce tool and equipment maintenance costs, extend equipment life cycles and lessen the time taken to clean cured concrete from steel.
“Our concrete anti stik coating includes mineral nanomaterials known to be 200 times stronger than steel as part of its already impressive 9H hardness rating” said Moe Elkateb, President of Master’s Touch.
“This proprietary hydrophobic and oleophobic formulation will withstand aggregate abrasion while also rejecting the effects of chemicals contained in concrete mixes.”
Comparable to Teflon in a frying pan, the fully cured surface reportedly accelerates plastic concrete movement away from the surface due to its low drag coefficient. Additionally, if concrete cures in place on the substrate, it can be removed with a pressure washer or with simple tools.
The company reports that the single component formula can be applied using a standard HPLV spray gun or with a foam brush. Available in clear, black and silver, the aerosol containers can be purchased in 1 gallon cans, 5 gallon pails or 200 liter barrels.
