• It is a suspension and sediment free, highly mobile liquid. which can be used in very fine sprays without clogging the jets.
• There is no unpleasant odour, even when using a fine fog spray.
• Very economic coverage rates can be obtained without difficulty.
• Retains its mobility at low temperatures
• It may be applied immediately prior to casting, or treated forms may be left until apparently dry.
• The chemical reaction promotes a uniform, matt, stain free, concrete surface with reduced incidence of blow holes and surface blemishes.
• Continued use gives progressively better results on timber formwork.
• Can be used with grey or white cement.
• Provides a quick, positive release of formwork. reducing labour costs and damage to formwork and moulds.

Coverage:

A thin coating spray applied to give a coverage area of between 30 to 40m2 per litre (depending upon surface porosity) is recommended. Excessive application of Extracon Bio may be detrimental to the concrete surface finish; care should therefore be taken to ensure that Extracon Bio is applied as recommended to achieve optimum performance and maximum economy.

Application:

Extracon Bio is ready for use and should not be diluted. It should be applied as thinly and evenly as possible for optimum performance. It can be applied to all types of formwork by spray, fine-haired brush, swab or roller. Any excess should be mopped up.

For the best and most economical performance, application by fine fog spray is recommended. It will not clog fine jets even at freezing temperatures.

For new ‘unsealed’ timber forms pre-treatment is recommended with a second coat applied prior to use.
