About This Product
An industrial-grade, water-based, silane/siloxane engineered to reduce water and moisture intrusion, while protecting concrete or masonry substrates from chlorides and deicing salts. Siloxa-Tek 8500 is our favorite product to treat nearly any application. A proprietary blend of silane/siloxanes, this clear penetrating sealer not only prevents deicing salt and freeze-thaw damage, but its hydrophobic nature resists moisture intrusion and vapor transmission. This is the go to choice to seal any concrete, brick, or masonry based substrate especially driveways, basements, patios and garages.
Highlights
- Prevention from freeze-thaw attack and ASR by preventing the ingress of water, prevents further damage to reinforced concrete by limiting the substrate water content, chloride and other aggressive salts
- Provides increased protection as a hydrophobic barrier to prevent future penetration of water and soluble aggressive agents through a crack, provides protection from spalling and pitting as a result of aggressive salts and chlorides
- Alkali resistant, freeze-thaw/de-icing salt resistant, UV resistant, reduces vapor transmission, water beading (water repellent effect)
- Supplied concentrated: 1 Gal. mixes with water to make 5 Gal., easy to apply, effective penetration depth, seals pores and capillaries while remaining breathable
- Reduction of dirt pick-up, reduces risk of efflorescence, protection against micro-organism growth
- No change in appearance of the substrate, the treated surface does not become glossy, tack free, durable finish
- No formation of harmful by-products, low VOC's

Questions & Answers
After the sealant has been applied how much time can pass before it can rain
24hrs
Should this product be diluted with water
Our subdivision has a stucco wall that faces a busy road and that gets dirty from all the traffic. Would sealing the wall with this product reduce the need for frequent power washing to clean the wall?
newly poured concrete porch Measurements are 23x45 (1035sq ft). After the 30day cure of the concrete we plan to apply by roller. How many gal of concentrate do we need to buy?
How well would this do on the concrete around my salt water pool? I have about 700 sq ft of concrete, would 1 gal of concentrate be enough for 2 coats? Also is rolling recommended?
Thanks for considering Ghostshield products. Yes, this product is perfect for your application and with 2 coats, applied wet-on-wet, you will need 4.6 gallons. 1 concentrated formula should be enough to treat your concrete. The recommended application method is using a low pressure pump sprayer. However, using a roller is perfectly acceptable.
IS THIS PRODUCT SAFE TO PAINT INSIDE A CONCRETE SYSTERN FOR POTABLE WATER
