Armor SX5000 WB
- Chemical Family
- Siloxanes
Armor SX5000 WB is a Department of Transportation approved water based Silane-Siloxane water repellent sealer that penetrates deep into the concrete surface where it chemically reacts to form a hydrophobic barrier within the pores. Surfaces sealed with the Armor SX5000 WB are more resistant to the damaging effects of water absorption, such as cracking, spalling, pitting, freeze thaw and salt damage, staining, mold and mildew, and efflorescence. It can be applied to interior and exterior, vertical and horizontal unsealed surfaces.
