Etch-A-Crete Concrete Etching Solution Ensures the Deepest Penetration of Concrete Sealants

Bone Dry concrete sealing products provide a unique vapor barrier for the best in concrete masonry moisture mitigation. Applying VOC free Etch-A-Crete to new or existing concrete slabs will improve the penetration of Bone Dry products. Existing concrete slabs may show signs of efflorescence, rust or mineral stains, discoloration from weathering, and organic growth (algae, mildew, fungus). Etch-A-Crete opens the surface of concrete, preparing it for proper absorption of concrete sealants -  Bone Dry Pro, Bone Dry Plus, and Bone Dry Original - to prevent concrete moisture.

Does My Concrete Need to Be Etched?

If a concrete slab needs waterproofing and has been hard-troweled, an etching solution is essential to providing the deepest penetration of any Bone Dry sealing materials. Etch-A-Crete increases the porosity of hard-troweled surfaces so Bone Dry Pro, Bone Dry Original, or Bone Dry Plus absorbed more effectively, providing concrete with the ultimate in waterproofing.

Etch-A-Crete Preps Existing Concrete Surfaces for Waterproofing

Bone Dry products are the most cost-effective way of sealing concrete flooring to prevent moisture from damaging surface materials. Etch-A-Crete plays an essential role in this process by preparing hard-troweled concrete for waterproofing.

FAQ's

Can I use Etch-A-Crete on it's own?

Etch-A-Crete can be used on it's own to open the surface of the concrete to prevent condensation from settling and building up. This often occurs in exterior shaded carports.

Do I need to etch broom finished concrete?

No. Broom finished concrete can be treated directly with one of our concrete sealers.

How can I open up hard troweled concrete to apply a sealer?

Etch-A-Crete is the solution you are looking for. Etch-A-Crete opens the surface of the concrete allowing for one of our penetrating sealers to be properly applied.
