Spring and summer are usually when homeowners discover new cracks or are finally ready to address existing crack issues in and around their homes. With that in mind comes the product ArmorLiner for repairing cracked blacktop surfaces, concrete slabs, and control joints. Driveway and patio resurfacing is a common spring and summer project for homeowners. This time of the year is when homeowners are thinking about having those unsightly cracks removed before beginning any resurfacing projects. Basement waterproofing or foundation repair contractors can benefit by offering flatwork repair as a service to their customers.
This rapid-set polyurea easily dispenses into cracks using a manual dispensing tool. Much like a crack injection to repair poured foundation walls, this two-part component dispenses through an appropriate-sized static mixer. ArmorLiner Black cures to a black hard rubber-like material for blacktop surfaces. After completely cured, the product can be shaved, providing a clean and finished look. If desired, the stone may be added for a seamless finish. The same benefits of ArmorLiner Black also come with ArmorLiner Gray for repairing cracks in basement floors, concrete driveways, patios, and sidewalks. Upon curing to a gray, hard-rubber-like material, ArmorLiner Gray may be shaved, leaving a nice uniform finish. This polyurea also applies to control joints – sidewalks, patios, and warehouses. An added benefit of control joint application for outdoor use is the elimination of unappealing weeds and grass growth.
ArmorLiner (both Black and Gray) cures quickly and allows full use within 60 minutes. Overlay projects or overcoats may be completed the same day. This product will not discolor and may be applied in cracks of almost any size, especially more extensive cracks. Because it outperforms single component materials, it is intended to last for years by resisting the problems associated with freeze/thaw cycles, salts and other chemicals. Free of solvents and volatile organic compounds (VOCs), ArmorLiner is environmentally friendly. When applied to basement floor cracks, it may improve the home’s indoor air quality by stopping the entrance of moisture and soil gases. ArmorLiner is available in dual-barrel and pail sets and is compatible with PMCs, Graco, and other spray systems. For more information, please visit ArmorThane.com.
