Over time the top layer of cement paste turns soft and chalky, and every forklift, cart and pair of boots grinds a little more of it into fine gray dust that settles on tools, stock and vehicles. ARMOVEX Dust Control is a water-clear dust proofer that soaks into that weak top layer and hardens it from within, locking the loose particles back into a dense, tight surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNothing is left sitting on top. There is no shine, no film to scuff off and no coating to maintain, so the slab keeps its plain concrete look while it gains abrasion resistance and becomes easier to sweep and keep clean. It is UV stable and non-yellowing, and the cured surface accepts coatings if you decide to cover the floor later.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"ax-specs\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eJob\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDust-proofing and hardening dusting, chalky or friable concrete\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eFinish\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInvisible, no film, no gloss\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eCoverage\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e400 sq ft per gallon, per coat\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eCoats\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2 coats (400 sq ft per gallon each coat)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eVOC\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eZero VOC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eCertifications\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGREENGUARD Gold certified · Health Product Declaration (HPD) listed · SCAQMD compliant · Buy American Act and Build America, Buy America (BABA) compliant\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eApply between\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e32°F and 120°F (0–48°C)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eClean-up\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarm, soapy water\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eShelf life\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIndefinite when sealed, stored cool and dry; do not freeze\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eSizes\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 gal · 5 gal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere to Use It\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarehouses, distribution centers and loading docks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufacturing, fabrication and auto shop floors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGarage floors that leave gray dust on cars and tools\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStorage rooms, utility and mechanical rooms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOlder, weathered or soft-troweled slabs with a chalky surface\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInterior or exterior concrete that will stay uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePrep\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSweep, then vacuum the slab to pull up loose dust and powdery laitance so the product reaches sound concrete.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemove oil, grease, paint, old sealers and anything else that would block absorption.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIf you pressure wash, give the slab at least 24 hours to dry.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCover glass, metal and nearby finishes against overspray.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpray a small test patch.

A 400 sq ft floor needs about 2 gallons in total (1 gallon for each coat).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat if parts of the second coat soak in fast?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThose are the most porous, dustiest spots. If any area of the second coat dries in under 15 minutes, keep re-applying there until it stays wet for at least 15 minutes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I use it in an occupied building?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Dust Control is Zero VOC, solvent-free and non-hazardous, and it is GREENGUARD Gold certified.
