TEC Introduces LiquiDam EZ™ Moisture Vapor Barrier
An innovative 1-part moisture vapor barrier that offers an easier alternative over traditional, epoxy-based moisture mitigation products by eliminating waste in mixing and priming and often does not require shot blasting. It effectively reduces moisture over damp or new concrete with a moisture vapor emission rate (MVER) less than or equal to 25 pounds per 1,000 ft² per 24 hours or a maximum relative humidity of 100%. Two coats are required to fully seal the substrate, and it quickly dries in as soon as 4-5 hours. Once dry, this product does not require a primer before the application of TEC® surface preparation products.
- Same day flooring installation – both coats dry within 3-4 hours
- Direct application onto green concrete up to 100% RH
- Less than 0.10 Perm Rating (ASTM E 96)
- No waste and no special handling required
- Low VOC
