A moisture vapor barrier coating designed to waterproof concrete floors. Controls moisture vapor emission rates up to 20lb/24 hr/1000 ft. prior to the application of epoxy flooring, hardwood flooring, carpet and tile. This product reduces the permeance of moisture vapor through concrete substrates to levels that are acceptable for the installation of hardwood flooring, carpet and tile. Flooring is protected and kept dry eliminating the risk of mold and mildew. The high performance and quick installation features of this system make it an ideal solution. Meets ASTM F3010 for vapor permeance. Supplied as a 2-component kit and easily applied with a squeegee, nap roller or brush, the Vapor-Tek 440 can be used on a variety of horizontal concrete applications. Recommended for areas with high risks of moisture intrusion, hydrostatic pressure and vapor transmission such as basements and warehouse floors. For interior use only, grinding or etching of the surface is recommended prior to application. Keep in mind this product has a quick set up time. Once Part A and Part B are mixed you have 5-25 minutes to apply the product before it begins to harden. Mix in small batches following the 2 Parts A to 1 Part B mix ratio to extend the pot life. Used as a primer before installing a durable concrete coating system or flooring such as hardwood, tile or carpet. It is recommended a calcium chloride test be performed prior to application to determine if this product is right for you.

Thanks for showing an interest in Ghostshield products. Although urethane fillers are acceptable, we recommend polyurea filler to ensure a nice solid finish. A polyurea base filler will cure must faster and will be much harder. For an invisible transition, we recommend grinding the joint smooth using a hand grinding wheel (once filled / cured). If you are looking for a polyurea based joint filler, call 855-573-8383 and one of our product specialists can help you.

Thanks for showing an interest in Ghostshield products. Vapor-Tek 440 must come into direct contact with the concrete to benefit from the 20psi moisture prevention rating. It is also recommended the surface be profiled to at least a CSP level 3. In order to achieve this, we recommend grinding the surface using a hand grinder or floor grinder. This process will remove the glue easily.
