Composition and Materials
Ashford Formula™ complies with all USDA regulations and is nontoxic, noncombustible and nonflammable. It is not harmful to lungs or hands and contains no volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
Sizes
Ashford Formula is available in 55 gallon (208 L) drums and 5 gallon (19 L) pails.
Colour, Finish
Ashford Formula™ is clear and will not change the natural appearance of masonry or concrete. Where alkali, lime and other impurities are forced to the surface and the natural appearance is to be preserved, all treated surfaces must be lushed clean with clear water in accordance with manufacturer’s instructions. On smooth steel-trowelled concrete surfaces, a natural wax-like sheen will appear between 6–12 months after treatment.
This can be accelerated by burnishing after curing. The sheen is caused by the hardening and densifying properties of the Ashford Formula, as well as by the abrasion from cleaning and use of the floor. A routine cleaning program using a floor scrubber with abrasive-type brushes will accelerate and enhance the sheen. The sheen will last the lifetime of the surface.
Application
With just one application of Ashford Formula™, concrete is cured and permanently more dense for its lifetime, making oils, greases and other surface contaminants easier to clean and remove.
The component parts of the concrete are solidified into a solid mass that toughens, hardens, and increases the density. Surface alkalis are neutralised, and efflorescence and the leaching of lime and alkalis are stopped.
What’s more, by using Ashford Formula™, you will be reducing your own environmental impact.
