Diedrich Salt-Bloc is an all-purpose, deeply penetrating siloxane water repellent and chloride barrier for concrete and pavers.
- Blocks the absorption of chloride ions from de-icing salts into concrete, brick and concrete paver sidewalks and driveways.
- Protects against the intrusion of moisture causing efflorescence, leaching, mildew, atmospheric staining, and freeze/thaw spalling
- Protects against chemical attack of chloride salts to reduce rebar and wire mesh corrosions
- Salt-Bloc is resistant to the detrimental effects of acid rain and carbon buildups
- Ideal for use on horizontal surfaces, and may also be used on retaining walls, bridge pilings and other vertical concrete applications
- Salt-Bloc protects against deep-seated stains caused by mud splashes and other waterborne contaminants
- It is highly effective in coastal areas in protecting surfaces from airborne salts
NOTES:
- May NOT be suitable for some surfaces - gypsum plaster, synthetic resin paints and other non-masonry surfaces
- TEST APPLICATIONS MUST ALWAYS BE CONDUCTED
- It is NOT recommended to paint over surfaces treated with Salt-Bloc
- Do NOT use on surfaces subject to constant water spray (i.e., car washes, water fountains)
SIZES: 1, 5 & 55 Gallons
Salt-Bloc Chloride Barrier Application
- Apply with a dense, soft masonry brush, roller, or low pressure (40-50 psi) airless sprayer at full strength (do not dilute).
- Apply an initial mist layer to break surface tension then follow up with a second flood coat.
- On horizontal surfaces take care to apply enough product to keep wet for a few minutes, while brooming out any puddles.
- Apply enough product on vertical surfaces to allow for a 6” to 8” run-down working bottom to top.
- Two wet on wet applications are required.
