One Trip is All it Takes
1Trip! Form Release™ is a VOC compliant, petroleum based, chemical release for concrete forms that effectively prevents bonding of concrete to plastic, steel, aluminum, treated paper forms, and plywood. It produces a smooth, unstained architectural concrete surface ready for curing compounds, sealers, mastics, or paints when applied according to manufacturer's instructions. Waterproofs mill oiled plywood forms to prevent the wicking of alkaline water from the concrete into the form, preventing the form from rotting out and raising the grain, thus doubling or tripling form life. Protects metal forms by chemically reacting and forming a rustproof film. It leaves no residue or cement dust on the concrete surface, so concrete is left with an architectural surface ready for application of curing compound, sealer, or bonder for plaster, mastics, or paint. When any material is to be applied on top of the concrete, follow the application instructions of the material manufacturer.
Packaged in a convenient 1 Gallon F-Style Container.
Product Benefits
- Easy Form Removal
- Smooth, Blemish-free finish
- Preserves Forms with regular use.
Instructions
- Forms should be free from dirt, hardened concrete, and foreign matter. Product is ready to be used directly from the container. Apply a thin film using a Scotchman fog lip. Spray uniformly with cross spray to avoid holes and uncoated areas. Avoid over application. Prior to coating plywood forms, apply one or two heavy brush coats to edges for waterproofing protection. CRITICAL: Do not use the same pump-up sprayer for the 1Trip! Finishing Aid. Cross-contamination will ruin the chemical integrity of both products.
- NOTES AND LIMITATIONS
Do not use on reinforcing steel. Concrete will not bond to the steel. Not a tilt-up bond breaker. When any material is to be applied over the newly formed concrete, follow the application instructions of the material manufacturer.
