CRES®GUARD AC 101
Acrylic aliphatic protective and anti carbonation coating
Acrylic aliphatic based protective and anti carbonation coating for reinforced substrate and masonry surfaces. It consists of a single component pigmented coating ready for immediate site uses. It has excellent crack bridging properties, yet provides a smooth protective, decorative coating for substrate surfaces. For effective anti-carbonation protection a two-coat treatment is recommended after the application of the silane siloxane based impregnating primer.
Properties:
- Highly durable.
- Excellent flexural and elastomeric properties.
- Excellent crack bridging properties.
- High UV resistance and resistance to long term weathering effects.
- Excellent barrier to various chemicals like CO2, chloride ions, sulphates, oxygen, water and other aggressive contaminants.
- Protective and decorative coating.
Uses:
- Used as a protective coating for exposed substrate structures such as bridge decks, tunnels, reser voirs, reinforced fill panels, marine and coastal structures from chloride ions, sulphates, carbon dioxide and water.
- Used to protect other cementitious and masonry substrates from aggressive marine and coastal environment.
- Typical application includes: Bridge abutments, Precast units, Reservoirs, Cladding where a high external tough coating is required.

How to Use:
- Prior to application of CRESGUARD AC 101, all surfaces must be prepared properly to avoid failure. The surface shall be cleaned to remove all dust, foreign materials/loose particles or any deposits of contaminants, which could affect the bond between the original substrate and the CRESGUARD AC 101 system. This can be done by scarifying, grinding, water blasting, sand blasting, acid washing or any other approved method.
- Apply a penetrative primer coat of CRESPROTECT REP 100 to the prepared dry surface. This will impregnate the surface and form an impervious barrier to moisture and other environmental contaminants. For best results apply the primer @ 4-5 m²/L/coat. Depending on the porosity and nature of the substrate a second coat is recommended to be given after the first coat has dried off completely. Stir the contents of the CRESGUARD AC 101 pail thoroughly before use. The first coat of CRES GUARD AC 101 is to be applied on the dry primer at the rate of 2.5 m2/L for 200 microns D.F.T. The coating can be applied with a brush, roller or an airless spray. Apply the second coat at right angles to the first coat at the same rate. The second coat is to be applied only after the first is completely dry.
- Curing Allow the coating to cure for a period of 7 days to achieve its full properties
