I've never tried it on concrete or masonry surfaces but their guide spec does address this application - http://www.triarchinc.com/fileshare/doc/TriarchProductDocs/T302_Duroplex.pdf I normally use acrylic cementitious coatings for this sort of application (Miracote, Texcote, Strongcoat). Still, Triarch has never failed me on a project and I've been using their stuff for many years. Usually looks pretty good when it's done and they used to have pretty good tech resources for architects. Have you contacted them about your application? Jerome J.

I prefer to come to 4specs first, this is such a time saving resource, I don't know what I would do without 4specs - thanks Colin. And Ken, thanks for your post, I'll forward the links to my client, this is a client who likes to pick what's left of my brain, but refuses to pay any additional services. ken hercenberg Senior Member Username: khercenberg Post Number: 607 Registered: 12-2006 Posted on Friday, September 27, 2013 - 12:58 pm:    Sounds like most of the folks I work for. Vacation? Please define. Not sure what that is. My desk is organized. I usually know which pile to look in to find just about anything. It's only after I organize my desk that I can't find anything. Good luck!

Alaska cruise! Same oh about my desk, except it is getting harder and harder to even find my deak! ken hercenberg Senior Member Username: khercenberg Post Number: 608 Registered: 12-2006 Posted on Friday, September 27, 2013 - 02:16 pm:    I know that feeling Ralph. I'm about to the point where someone could probably just take away my desk and leave my stuff. At least my stacks would finally not reach as high! Ellis C.

I wonder how anyone found this. Had to be when cleaning off their desk.
