JBS RESICURE

RASIN ALUMISED PIGMENTED CURING COMPOUND

Product Description

JBS RESICURE is a synthetic resin-based curing compound that forms a continuous protective film on concrete or cement-bound surfaces. It minimizes premature water evaporation, ensuring proper curing and optimizing the strength and durability of concrete structures. The product is available in different variants: clear, white pigmented (RWP), and aluminized polymeric resin (RAL), providing options for enhanced solar reflection and curing efficiency.

Uses

• Effective curing for concrete and cement-bound mortar surfaces.
• Reduces the need for alternative curing methods such as water curing, wet Hessian, or polythene sheets.
• Suitable for:
  • High-rise structures
  • Canal linings
  • Highways, runways, and taxiways
  • Roof decks, bridge decks, and retaining walls
  • Pre-stressed beams and aprons

Features

• High Curing Efficiency: Up to 95% water retention with solar reflection above 70% in pigmented variants.
• Strength Optimization: Ensures proper strength achievement while reducing shrinkage.
• Cost and Resource Efficient: Saves water and reduces labor costs.
• Improves Surface Quality: Results in hard, crack-free, and dust-free concrete surfaces.
• UV Protection: Reflective grades minimize solar temperature gain.
• Compliant: Meets ASTM C 309-89 and BS 7542:1992 standards.

Application Method

1. Surface Preparation: Ensure the surface is free of bleed water.
2. Spray Application:
   • Apply JBS RESICURE using a hand-operated or power-driven spray gun.
   • For vertical surfaces (e.g., walls or columns), wet the surface with sprayed water before applying the compound.
   • Apply in two coats for maximum efficiency, ensuring the first coat is dry or tacky before applying the second coat.
3. Post-Application Care: Avoid walking on the surface until fully dry.

Overcoating and Cleaning

• Overcoating: No removal is required before applying subsequent coatings.
• Cleaning: Clean spray equipment immediately after use.
