DualGuard™ with InnerCrete™ Membrane Technology

Dual-action concrete protection designed to replace traditional sealers

DualGuard™ combines surface water repellency with permanent internal waterproofing to deliver long-lasting protection, durability, and moisture control for concrete and cementitious substrates. Unlike conventional sealers that can whiten, flake, or delaminate over time, DualGuard™ provides “dual” protection that improves concrete from the surface down — without forming a film.

Using advanced InnerCrete™ Membrane Technology, DualGuard™ creates an integral waterproofing barrier within the concrete while maintaining a natural matte finish.

Dual Protection Technology

Surface Protection

Super-repellent surface causes water to bead and shed

Improves resistance to oil, stains, and odors

Simplifies ongoing cleaning and maintenance

Internal Protection

Permanent internal waterproofing of concrete

Moisture mitigation and damp-proofing

Hydrostatic pressure resistance for below-grade applications

Key Benefits

DualGuard™ improves the performance and longevity of concrete and Portland-cement-based materials by:

Waterproofing and preventing water penetration

Reducing moisture intrusion in damp environments

Inhibiting mold and mildew growth

Reducing dusting, spalling, and surface deterioration

Improving durability in high-traffic areas

Increasing resistance to abrasion and erosion

Controlling efflorescence

Reducing damage from freeze/thaw cycles

Reducing hairline cracking

Minimizing environmental exposure damage

Protecting against salt and chemical attack

Ideal Applications

DualGuard™ is ideal where concrete will remain bare and unfinished, and a simple, long-lasting solution is needed to dry and protect the surface:

Damp basements and crawlspaces

Garages and sheds

Warehouses and storage facilities

Foundations and below-grade concrete

Indoor and outdoor applications

Above-grade and below-grade concrete

Green, new, and existing concrete

Why Replace Traditional Sealers?

No white, patchy appearance

No flaking or peeling

No future delamination

Maintains a natural matte finish

Permanent internal protection instead of a sacrificial film

Performance Improvements Over Time

After treatment, DualGuard™ continues to improve concrete by:

Reducing relative humidity (RH) by 10% or more

Reducing alkalinity and regulating pH levels

Reducing moisture vapor emission rates (MVER) by 5+ lbs

Retaining full compatibility for future coatings or treatments

Application Instructions (Summary)

Apply to clean, bare concrete (damp or dry)

Use a low-pressure pump sprayer

Agitate into the surface with a stiff bristle broom

Do not allow excess product to pool or harden — wipe away any excess

Allow to react for several hours before returning the surface to service

Technical Compatibility

Suitable for concrete with:

≤ 12 pH

< 12 MVER

99% RH or greater

For use on untreated concrete and cement-based substrates

Coverage

150–200 sq. ft. per US gallon

Coverage depends on concrete age, condition, and porosity. Avoid over-application and surface pooling.

Available Sizes
