KEMKO® 136 StripSEAL™ is a two-component, non-sag, polyurea paste adhesive designed for sealing cracks and delaminations in concrete and masonry in preparation for epoxy pressure injection using KIP™ (KEMKO® Injection Process) System. It is applied to dry concrete or masonry substrates at 1/8 inch without sagging and it cures quickly (even at colder temperatures). It is available in cartridges or bulk. After the injection resin gels and begins to cure the KEMKO® 136 StripSEAL™ is removed by peeling it off. Eliminating the need for grinding it off, saving time and reducing the marring (concrete scaring) caused by grinding. It is ideal for sealing decorative concrete where grinding would mar the surface. It does cause the concrete substrate to look clean when it is removed. When maintaining the concrete’s decorative appearance is vital, spray the surface to be sealed and the surrounding concrete surface with a 20% or 40% percent water-based silane penetrating sealer before applying KEMKO® 136 StripSEAL™. It contains no VOC’s (volatile organic compounds).
KEMKO® 136 StripSEAL™ is fast cure sealer with excellent handling characteristics formulated to cure over a wide range of substrate temperatures, which minimizes the interval between crack sealing and pressure injection grouting. Following initial cure of the injection resin, KEMKO® 136 StripSEAL™ crack sealer may be “stripped” from the surface of the repaired crack by pulling on tabs embedded in the seal at the time of application or by prying-up on a leading edge of the seal with a putty knife, margin trowel, or similar tool.
