Ideal Hard.

The best solution for your concrete floor.
Ideal Hard is a proprietary, colourless chemical solution that increases the wear surface strength of concrete floors subjected to pedestrian and vehicular traffic. Ideal Hard deeply penetrates concrete surfaces to seal, densify, harden and waterproof.

Ideal Hard  floors last longer, cost less to maintain, are safe to use and are guaranteed to resist dusting. It is VOC-compliant, odourless, environmentally safe and simple to apply. Through a chemical-ion exchange process, Ideal Hard develops internal bonds which densify the concrete substrate into a hardened, chemically-cured, homogeneous, concrete mass that resists abrasion, oil contamination and water. This chemical-ion exchange process begins immediately after treatment and continues through the initial six months following application.
Ideal Hard increases impact and abrasion resistance by +/-127% compared to untreated concrete surfaces.

Benefits of using Ideal Hard.

IMMEDIATE BENEFITS:
- Helps concrete to mature in the proper way;
- Reduces micro-pits;
- Prevents the surface getting dirty;
- Floors are ready to use after the application of Ideal Hard.

FUTURE BENEFITS:
- Increases impact and abrasion resistance;
- Reduces oil and water penetration;
- Dust protection;
- Floors are easy to clean;
- Ideal Hard floors will polish over time with regular easy maintenance.

IDEAL HARD is safe to use. Its odourless formula allows its use in employee occupied areas without concern. It can be applied in close proximity to foodstuffs without fear of contamination. The deeply penetrating chemical action leaves no film and will not alter any natural slip resistance texture of the concrete floor.
IDEAL HARD treated floors provide a significant savings in maintenance costs over conventional acrylic, epoxy and urethane sealers. Ideal Hard will not yellow, discolour, chip, peel or show unsightly wear patterns with use. IDEAL HARD will not tyre mark. In fact, the more and IDEAL HARD floor is used and matures, the better it generally looks.

Basic Use: experience, supported by a rigid quality control programme, means trouble free chemical hardening, densifying, and waterproofing of concrete.
IDEAL HARD is recommended for use in areas subjected to medium to heavy fork lift and tow motor traffic: warehouses, distribution centres, manufacturing plants, textile mills, bottling plants, coolers and freezers, food processing plants, canning factories, breweries, bakeries, meat and poultry processing plants, service garages, supermarkets, discount retail stores and hub transfer facilities. Other uses include concrete floors subjected to heavy pedestrian traffic such as civic centres, sports arenas, stadiums, hospitals, airports, museums and schools. Areas subjected to mild chemical attack including parking decks, silage storage silos, sewage treatment plants, dairies, fish processing plants, refineries and water treatment plants are also protected.
