Permanent protection from
water & chemical
penetration
PSC 2306 is a blend of proprietary, polysiloxane polymers formulated to coat and protect a variety of in-ground concrete structures. Harnessing the latest polymeric technology, our Concrete Coating guards sanitary sewer, stormwater, and other precast infrastructure against penetration from water and chemicals that often result in a shortened service life. Designed as a environmentally-friendlier alternative to toxic coal tar epoxy, common applications include reinforced concrete pipe (RCP), manholes, and box culverts.
The durable, hydrophobic, and strong adhesion properties of PSC 2306 create a chemical-resistant barrier between the concrete surface and back-filled soil, stormwater runoff, and sewage. It has a high resistance to extreme pH chemical compounds commonly found in gravity-flow drainage systems, protecting against premature concrete corrosion.
PSC 2306 is a semi-viscous, gray, polymeric liquid formulated to be sprayed, rolled, or brushed onto porous, cementitious surfaces where chemical and water resistance is needed. PSC 2306 is designed to be applied in the rehabilitation of existing infrastructure with proper surface preparation, or for added protection of newly installed sewer and sanitary concrete structures.
Multiple coats can be used if desired. PSC 2306 cross-links at ambient temperatures and continues the process of forming a complex array of extremely strong linkages to both itself and the surface. The product will not delaminate when applied properly and will last the life of the structure.
PSC 2306 is a solution of a high-molecular, curable polysiloxane in aliphatic hydrocarbons.
Adhesion testing has been conducted in accordance with the testing procedures of ASTM D7234 on cementitious substrates, including concrete block, concrete pours, etc. The adhesion of PSC 2306 to cementitious substrates consistently exceeds the break strength of the cementitious substratesthemselves.

Stir PSC 2306 thoroughly to make sure that the tint and consistency are uniform. Do not dilute. DO NOT introduce air bubbles into the mix.
The coating should be applied when ambient temperatures are between 15.5°C (60°F) – 50° (122°F), and the surface is dry and free of dirt, dust, and debris. Apply PSC 2306 with a brush, masonry nap roller, and/or an airless sprayer using an adequate nozzle size. During spraying, aerosols arise and might cause a potential risk for humans. Therefore, spray only in closed installations which provide for good air extraction and good room ventilation. Do not inhale aerosols!
Clean sprayer immediately after use with mineral spirits or a similar solvent. After solvent, rinse the sprayer thoroughly with water. One gallon covers approximately 250-350 sq ft per coat.
Store in original, unopened container. PSC 2306 may change after prolonged standing (e.g. form cream layers, sediment, separate, etc). Please stir thoroughly before use.
If stored below 0°C, the product may solidify and/ or change its consistency. After heating to 20-25°C and thorough mixing, the product can be used again without issue. The content of the container must not be exposed to moisture or be left open for a long time. Irreparable damage is possible. Close the container tightly after use!
