Euclid Duralprep AC serves as a concrete surface conditioner, enhancing adhesion and bonding strength between coatings and substrates. It's a valuable asset for concrete surface preparation across various applications.
Euclid Duralprep A.C. is a three-component, cement-based bonding agent and anti-corrosion coating designed to improve adhesion and reinforce steel protection in concrete repair applications. This water-based epoxy system combines portland cement and a corrosion inhibitor to create a durable, long-lasting bond between new and existing concrete. It effectively prevents moisture intrusion while maintaining breathability. Duralprep A.C. is non-flammable, VOC-compliant, and does not form a water vapor barrier after curing, making it an excellent choice for both interior and exterior applications.
