Vulk Aardcure Catalyst - Corrosion Inhibitor & Durability Enhancer

  • Vulk Aardcure Catalyst - Corrosion Inhibitor & Durability Enhancer

Chloride-free, silicate-free, penetrative concrete corrosion inhibitor and durability enhancer for concrete


Available Options

Aardcure Catalyst is an advanced formulation penetrative corrosion inhibitor and durability enhancer designed for new and existing concrete. This chloride-free and silicate-free solution deeply penetrates the substrate, increasing surface abrasion resistance and significantly reducing permeability to water and chemical attack.

The product reduces hydrostatic pressure within the concrete and enhances adhesion of subsequently applied floor finishes. Laboratory and field testing confirms long-term durability and ongoing effectiveness for more than 10 years.

Application Instructions

Surface Preparation

  • Ensure all surfaces are clean, dry and free from ponded water.
  • Remove dirt, laitance, previous coatings or curing agents that may inhibit penetration.
  • Flush surface with clean water after cleaning and allow to dry thoroughly.
  • Minimum preparation includes pressure washing at 2000 psi.
  • Test absorbency using a light water spray to confirm sufficient penetration.

Application Method

  • Apply a single, even coat using a low-pressure sprayer with an adjustable spray tip at the recommended coverage rate.
  • For highly porous or deteriorated areas, reapply after 2–4 hours using additional Aardcure Catalyst.
  • Allow treated surfaces to dry for 30–60 minutes before applying curing agents or additional coatings.
  • For newly placed concrete, apply after the final trowel finish once bleed water has evaporated and the surface will not be marked by the application procedure.
  • Joints may be cut beforehand, but all dust and debris must be removed prior to application.
  • It is recommended to cure concrete to industry standards after Aardcure Catalyst has been applied.
