TESTING RESULTS
35 YEARS WITHOUT FAILURE AND INDEPENDENT TESTING TO PROVE IT!
The most common problem with installing flooring on a concrete slab is high concrete moisture levels. Bone Dry Concrete Sealer has been providing a fool proof solution to moisture problems for over 35 years without failure and independent testing supports our claims.
There are numerous ways to test for concrete moisture but the most accurate way is using a relative humidity moisture meter. Relative humidity testing has been the standard procedure for over 20 years in Europe and is now rapidly becoming the standard here in the United States. Most flooring installations can endure no more then 80% relative humidity in the concrete. The following data chart shows that Bone Dry Concrete Sealer has been the most effective product available to accomplish this.

A reduction in water vapor transmission (WVT) is indicative of RH reduction.
Sample A: No drop in WVT on the untreated slab.
Sample B: WVT was reduced to 3.28 (down 26% or below the 80% threshold) after applying Bone Dry Concrete Sealer.
BONE DRY CONCRETE SEALER is a penetrating, permanent concrete waterproofing sealer. Originally developed to seal concrete for hazardous waste containment applications, it accelerates the drying time for concrete and is an inexpensive product for sealing concrete prior to installing Vinyl, VCT or Wood Flooring. It is non-toxic and easy to apply.
Contractors have been using Bone Dry Concrete Sealer for more than 35 years without call backs, failure or job down time.
