RELEASE CRETE™ is a high quality chemical action-type release agent for use on all types of forms used for concrete. It is also extremely effective when used to prevent concrete from bonding to form surfaces as well as mixers, mold boxes, pallets, tools and wheelbarrows.
Apply RELEASE CRETE™ lightly on clean form surfaces before each pour. RELEASE CRETE™ may be applied by brush, roller, rag or spray. RELEASE CRETE™ may be diluted with one to two parts fuel oil for economy. Note that highly volatile solvents such as mineral spirits, are not recommended.
RELEASE CRETE™ is available in 55 gallon (208 L) drums.
All precautions defined on the SDS (Safety Data Sheet) for RELEASE CRETE™ and the solvent used to dilute must be followed.
RELEASE CRETE™ (undiluted) will cover approximately 1,000 ft2 /gal (25 m2 /L) for metal forms and 750 ft2 /gal (18 m2 /L) for wood forms.
The hazards defined on the (SDS) Safety Data Sheet for RELEASE CRETE™ will change significantly when diluted with any organic solvent. Additional precautions are required to avoid inhalation during spray applications and will normally include respiratory protection. Spray application of RELEASE CRETE™ diluted with any low flash point solvent may create the possibility of explosive airborne concentrations. Appropriate precautions will vary with local conditions.
Refer to the SDS for RELEASE CRETE™ and the solvent prior to use. Consult local air quality regulations to assure that any solvent diluted RELEASE CRETE™ complies with applicable VOC regulations.
