WATER-BASE, WAX-BASE CONCRETE CURING
COMPOUND
Description
1300-CLEAR Water-Base,

water retention. 1300-CLEAR appears white in color when wet, but
dries clear. It is also available with a red fugitive dye to visually
aid application coverage.
1300-CLEAR meets maximum VOC content limits of 350 g/L for Concrete Curing Compounds as required by the U.S. EPA Architectural Coatings Rule.
Uses
1300-CLEAR is used on both
interior and exterior, horizontal or vertical concrete applications,
where subsequent surface treatments will not be applied.

On vertical surfaces, spray on promptly after the forms are removed. Use a Chapin 8005 spray tip that produces a flow of 1/2 gallon (1.89 liters) per minute under 40 psi (.276 MPa) of pressure.
Clean up
Prior to drying, equipment may be cleaned with soap and water.
Once dried, use mineral spirits or other suitable petroleum distillate.
Coverage
Approximately 200 sq. ft./gal. (4.9 sq. m/L).
PRECAUTIONS
