Use of Membrane-Forming Curing Compounds on Concrete Surfaces That are to be Painted. Report 2. Supplementary Tests.

Abstract

The tests reported herein are a part of an investigation to evaluate membrane forming compounds that can be used for curing concrete surfaces that may there-after serve as a base for paint. This supplemental phase was conducted to evaluate one curing compound with four paints. One white pigmented resin-wax based curing compound was tested with four selected paints: (a) an exterior polyvinyl-acetate amulsion paint, (b) an exterior and interior styrene-butadiene-acrylate paint, (c) an interior paint, first coat latex, second coat alkyd, and (d) an interior latex paint. Small concrete panels were molded and coated with the curing compound, then half were painted at one-week age and companion panels were painted at two-months age. Control panels were prepared for comparative purpose by painting directly over the panels after they were cured and dried.
