Surface Preparation
v20130326
v20091006
Apply in temperatures above 5o C, warmer temperatures increase efficacy. Surfaces should be free of dust, oils and excess water. Ensure all areas not to be stripped are suitably protected. Good ventilation must be provided in confined areas. Thoroughly mix DeBOND each time prior to use and test a small area first to determine substrate colorfastness.
Application & Dwell Time Apply DeBOND / AiA using an airless sprayer or HVLP equipment. Do not atomize. Use equipment capable of 2000 psi fitted with chemical resistant packaging. Product can be applied with brush or roller only in small areas, as results will be less consistent. Once applied on surface DO NOT AGGITATE PRODUCT. If removing multiple layers, multiple application and removal of lifted layers may be required. Dwell time will vary due to factors such as type and layer of paint, temperature etc. Most removal times will take between 1 – 6 hours to lift. Some high performance coatings may take up to 48 hours. Do not allow product to dry on surface, reapply more product.
Removal: Residue can be removed by pressure washer (2500-3000 psi). During the removal process two waste streams are created, liquid waste (composed of used product and wash water) and solid waste (paint chips/material). Liquid waste is inert and biodegradable, solid waste should be collected and disposed of according to local government regulations. For indoor application, use a scraper and squeegee then wet/ dry vacuum system. Do not store removed material in metal containers.
REFER TO TECHNICAL DATA SHEET FOR COMPLETE APPLICATION, REMOVAL AND SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS. DO NOT STORE IN METAL CONTAINER OR MIX WITH ANY OTHER MATERIALS / PRODUCTS. Coverage: 80 Square feet / US gallon (based on a 1 application process)
Packaging US 5 gallon (18.9L) pail
Safety Causes skin and eye burns; flush with water if contact occurs. Causes respiratory tract irritation; use only with proper ventilation. Keep out of reach of children. Use standard safety precautions. Store in a closed container when not in use.

WashAway is an effective and easy to use two-in-one product for concrete and cementitious substrates. In one step, it efficiently etches concrete and cementitious substrates in preparation for painting or coating while also cleaning and removing deeply embedded stains and contaminants.
InnerCrete
TM
WashAway is sprayed, brushed or mopped on surfaces, left to dwell for 15-20 minutes, then pressure washed away. It only requires H2O to neutralize (No special neutralizing agent). SPRAY ON - WAIT - PRESSURE WASH OFF - CLEANED & PROFILED FOR PAINTING This advanced, fully-biodegradable profiling product totally replaces muriatic acid, sand blasting and other abrasive profiling methods. WashAway is neutralized with simple H20 (no special TM InnerCrete agents) and leaves surfaces profiled for proper paint and coating adhesion. Deep stains, rust, oils, organic materials and contaminants are removed. Organic re-growth is reduced so that cleaning jobs last longer. Washaway is non-toxic, has no odor and contains no hydrochloric acids or caustics. It is available in both liquid and gel form (for vertical surfaces). WashAway can be used on: • Concrete
• Ceramic and grout • Cementitious materials
WashAway can be used on indoor / outdoor and vertical and horizontal surfaces where surface profiling and preparation or cleaning is required. It is easy and ready to use, eliminates abrasive blasting methods and will greatly reduce labor costs and caustic chemical usage. APPLICATIONS: • Any cement substrate requiring profiling for coating adhesion • Building exteriors • Parking lots and garages • Stairwells and walkways • Garbage areas • Public washrooms and facilities • Factory / warehouse floors • Arenas and sports facilities • Bus and train stations

Efflorescence Remover
“Protecting Concrete from the Inside...Out” InnerCrete TM
WhiteAway – from the Makers of InnerCrete™ Membrane Technology, is an advanced VOC Free efflorescence remover, formulated to dissolve efflorescence (whitish residue) and remove groundin dirt from concrete surfaces. It properly cleans and prepares surfaces for a secondary protective treatment. When used in conjunction with VersaGuard or DualGuard as a secondary treatment, efflorescence isTMfirst removed then effectively prevented from recurring on InnerCrete the surface. WhiteAway contains no hydrochloric (muratic) acid so as not to etch delicate surfaces, making it a safe choice for heritage or sensitive substrates. Damage that results from using harsh blasting removal processes is avoided. WhiteAway is fully biodegradable and effectively removes efflorescence, ground-in dirt and InnerCrete TM stains from: • Concrete • Brick • Slabs
- Cement-based materials - Pavers, patios and driveways - Retaining walls
WhiteAway can be used on indoor / outdoor, vertical and horizontal surfaces where efflorescence, dirt or stains are visible. WhiteAway is easy to use; it is applied using a garden sprayer working in back and forth motions to ensure adequate coverage. DO NOT ATOMIZE. WhiteAway penetrates deep into the substrate without damaging the surfaces. It cleans evenly and brightens up old, stained or discolored surfaces. ALWAYS TEST A SMALL AREA FIRST.

Surface Preparation Always test a small hidden area first. Apply in temperatures above 5o C. Do not apply under blazing sun as this will cause the product to dry out. Product can be applied to damp or dry but not saturated (pooled water) surfaces. All glass, plants, woods, and delicate, nonmasonry surfaces should be properly protected from overspray of WhiteAway.
Dilution Rate: Use at full strength for heavy efflorescence and stains, dilute 1:1 with water for light duty removal.
Application & Dwell Time WhiteAway is applied using a garden sprayer. DO NOT ATOMIZE. Do not apply with a mop or roller. WhiteAway can be applied on wet surfaces. Wear rubber gloves and safety goggles. Spray surface with product until totally saturated. Heavy efflorescence may require agitation with a stiff brush. Product should be left on for at least 15 minutes, but no more than 30 minutes, to properly dissolve the efflorescence. Check product often. If product dries on the surface, reapply product. Once removed, if efflorescence or stains still remain, reapply more product and repeat the process.
Removal: Agitate the stubborn efflorescence if necessary. Use a pressure washer to remove residue and product. Continue washing the surface until no foamy residue remains. This step will properly neutralize the product so that it can be rinsed away without special disposal. If any efflorescence or staining remains, repeat the above steps.
Preventing the Recurrence of Efflorescence: Once the surface is totally rinsed and completely cleaned of efflorescence and ground-in dirt treat the concrete with either VersaGuard or DualGuard (depending on application). Both of these products incorporate InnerCrete™ Membrane Technology, which creates an internal, impermeable membrane within the concrete. This InnerCrete™ Membrane effectively stops the chemical reaction that causes efflorescence to form, thereby preventing the recurrence of visible efflorescence at the surface.
Coverage: 200 Square ft /US gallon (based on 1 gallon of UNDILUTED product. If diluting the product to remove light efflorescence additional coverage is possible.)
Safety Always read Technical Data sheet and MSDS before using the product. Do not alter, mix or dilute this product with any other chemicals. Causes skin and eye burns; flush with water if contact occurs. Causes respiratory tract irritation; use only with proper ventilation. Keep out of reach of children. Use standard safety precautions. Store in a closed container when not in use.

SOLUTIONS FOR EFFLORESCENCE CONTROL & PREVENTION The Protocol Product line; WhiteAway and VersaGuard or DualGuard, are a complete system to effectively remove and prevent efflorescence. THE EFFLORESCENCE CONTROL & PREVENTION SYSTEM: 1) WhiteAway Efflorescence Remover sprayed / brushed on surfaces. Its acid-free formulation is safe for most delicate surfaces. Totally saturate surface and let dwell. Agitate surface for heavy efflorescence. 2) Pressure-wash to remove and neutralize. 3) Treat with VersaGuard or DualGuard to prevent efflorescence from recurring. Efflorescence develops as moisture and water migrate through concrete and react with elements present in concrete such as alkaline calcium components, salts and hydroxide residues. These dissolved elements are then carried to the surface where the moisture is dissolved and a whitish (usually) material is left behind. Over time, this whitish material, efflorescence, hardens on the surface and is difficult to remove.
Efflorescence affects concrete, brick and other cement-based materials. Efflorescence causes: Paint and coating failure Unsightly residues on concrete VersaGuard and DualGuard - with InnerCreteTM Membrane Technology control efflorescence by:
Creating a permanent impermeable protection membrane within concrete. Preventing water penetration that causes the efflorescence reaction to occur.

Caution should be used when treating high traffic areas as pooling of the liquids on the surface could be a slipping hazard.
SOLUTIONS FOR ELIMINATING COATING FAILURE Coating failure and delamination from concrete surfaces is a widespread and costly problem. Failure can occur for many reasons. Coating failure and delamination due to: Moisture transmission from within the concrete Efflorescence Internal rebar corrosion CAN BE PREVENTED by first treating the surface with VersaGuard.
CHOOSING A PRODUCT Protocol Products, WashAway and VersaGuard; provide a complete system for optimal coating adhesion and performance. WashAway eliminates the need for surface prep / etching using muriatic acids or grinding methods. VersaGuard is uniquely developed to inhibit moisture transmission while maintaining the surface profile of concrete and cement-based materials. This allows for optimal paint and coating adhesion. VersaGuard based on InnerCreteTM Membrane Technology; Adhesion promoter for concrete surfaces Creates a permanent, impermeable barrier beneath the concrete surface that prevents moisture transmission from within the concrete to the surface Maintains the surface profile for optimal coating adhesion. Prevents efflorescence from rising to the surface which causes adhesion to breakdown and the coating to fail. Prevents rebar corrosion from rising to the surface which causes adhesion to breakdown and the coating to fail. Maintains breathability. APPLICATION VersaGuard can be used in any concrete substrate that will have paint, coating or epoxy membrane applied. When using on new concrete surfaces, concrete should be properly cured before substrate is treated. 1) Apply WashAway – Concrete Etcher / Cleaner to substrate. Let dwell at least 15-20 minutes depending on required profile. (Refer to paint manufacturer’s specifications) 2) Pressure-wash thoroughly with water to neutralize. 3) Apply VersaGuard to substrate.

DeFOUL:
Copper-Based Antifouling Paint Remover Description: DeFOUL is an advanced, fully biodegradable, spray-on antifouling paint remover. Without damaging the underlying and expensive gel coat, it quickly and effectively removes copper-based antifouling paint and eliminates the need for costly sanding, blasting or “peel and strip” methods of removal. Simply spray DeFOUL on a clean hull, wait and pressure wash off once the paint has started to lift. DeFOUL minimizes the amount of waste and harmful impact to the environment; no airborne contaminants are created from sanding; and large amounts of waste created from “peel and strip” methods are avoided. It is effective in removing multiple layers of copperbased antifouling paint with each application. DeFOUL encapsulates toxic metal fillers, such as copper and tin and creates two waste streams; liquid waste (product and wash water) which is inert and fully biodegradable and can be washed down the drain, and solid waste (paint material) which can be collected at the drainage point and disposed of correctly. For Use On: Fiberglass, aluminum, steel and wood boat hulls. Will NOT damage gel coats or epoxy barrier coatings. Note: For the rare occasion that NON copper-based antifouling paint has been used please contact the Company for the appropriate specialty product.
stubborn or multi-layers but do not allow to dry out. Additional applications or small touch-up areas may be required. Small areas can be retouched using a brush. Apply in weather above 10o C. Warmer temperatures will increase efficacy. Removal: Before removal, ensure drains are properly protected to ensure solid paint waste can be collected and disposed of properly. Liquid waste is inert and fully biodegradable; it can be washed away. Thick residues can be removed by scraping. If paint remains, reapply DeFOUL without washing the hull as water will neutralize and cause paint to re-adhere to the surface. DeFOUL is also removed using a pressure washer with a turbo tip at a slight angle to assist in “lifting” the paint from the gel coat. Using hot water will increase efficacy. Once removal is complete, neutralize surface with water. DO NOT store removed material in metal containers! Safety: Use standard protective clothing and safety precautions when using this product. Causes skin and eye burns, flush with water if contact occurs. Causes respiratory tract irritation; use only with proper ventilation. Keep out of reach of children. Store in a closed container when not in use.
Coverage: Approximately 40 - 120 sq ft / US gallon. Multi-layers of anti-fouling paint may require additional product.

Site Preparation: DeFOUL can be used indoors or outdoors in well ventilated areas. Ensure drains are properly protected to ensure solid paint waste can be collected and properly disposed of.
P ROTOCOL
Application & Dwell Time: DeFOUL must be applied to boat hulls that have first been cleaned of oils, residues and other organic and marine material. It should be applied using using an airless sprayer with a fan tip of (0.021-0.031) (consult TDS for a list of suggested sprayers). DO NOT ATOMIZE OR USE A ROLLER. Lightly scuffing or sanding the hull surface first will assist in penetrating and removing multiple layers of antifouling paint. Spray DeFOUL on thick enough to completely cover the antifouling paint. The color of the antifouling paint should not be visible. Ensure there is minimal “sagging” or dripping of the product. DeFOUL should be left for at least 6 hours for antifouling paint to start lifting. (Dwell time depends on temperature and layers of paint) DO NOT AGITATE, TOUCH OR INTERFERE WITH DeFOUL. Paint will become visible, changing the color and “lifting” through DeFOUL when activated. DeFOUL can be left overnight for
