Description

StoneBlock SD125 Blocks moisture and efflorescence in concrete and stone and natural stone surfaces

A mineral-based penetrating solution to block dissolved solids, moisture and salt efflorescence in concrete and stone

Features

Typical Uses

Packaging

1 Gallon (3.8L) bottle  and 5 Gallon (19L) Pail of  Ready To Use Solution

Coverage

200-300 ft2 per gallon (4.9 – 7.3 m2 per liter) depending on the porosity of the substrate.

Application

Substrates to be sealed must be a minimum of 28 days old and/ or be fully cured. The surface must be clean and porous enough to allow the solution to penetrate the substrate.

Surfaces should be clean and free of surface laitance, dust, dirt, debris, mildew, oil, grease, previous sealers, curing agents, paint or other surface coatings, and other contaminants. If acid or other cleaning compound is used to clean or etch the surface, neutralize the surface completely before applying SD125.

Do not apply StoneBlock SD125 to wet surfaces.

Always test porosity before application, especially on very dense surfaces.   The product is a one-part system.  Stir material thoroughly before and during application. Do not apply below 40°F or above 95°F during the application or drying period.

Apply uniformly with a low-pressure sprayer. When applying material, work in small, manageable areas at a time to maintain a wet edge. The product should be applied
to the point of rejection and be fully absorbed within 10 minutes without puddles.
Use a broom, roller, or microfiber pad to evenly distribute the product as well as disperse any puddles as the excessive application may result in the white residue (especially on
darker or colored surfaces) which will not affect sealer performance and generally dissipates over time or by pressure washing.

Limitations

What Is A Stone Blocker

Natural Stone and Concrete are tough, durable substrates, but they are inherently porous. Salts, dissolved minerals, and moisture can all move to the surface through the pores of the concrete or stone.  The function of Stone Block is to close off this pore system.

StoneBlock penetrates into the surface and reacts with the calcium hydroxide in the stone or concrete, and fills in the voids.  Filling the spaces creates an integral barrier that prevents or minimizes efflorescence, moisture drive, and leaching. 

Furthermore, if you use StoneBlock SD125 prior to sealing you get greater adhesion with topical sealers  and  a boost in repellency  and stain resistance in the case pf penetrating sealers penetrating sealers

What Are The Do’s And Dont’s When Using StoneBlock SD125 Efflorescence and moisture blocker?

When using SD125 , make sure the surface is absorbent or porous. This way, the solution can soak into the substrate.

Any contaminants that are on the surface need to be cleaned off,  stripped or ground off.

Recommended cleaners include SurfaceClean or Surface PrepWork

Recommended Stripper is PowerStrip

Do not over-apply the product. Typically  you should look for between 200-300 ft2
per gallon (4.9 – 7.3 m2 per liter) depending on the porosity of the substrate.

StoneBlock should be fully absorbed into the surface within 10 minutes without puddles.

Using a pump-up sprayer is the best way to apply.
