ROBUSTO RELEASE 108WB is used as a release agent for most types of formwork allowing for easy stripping of formwork and improving concrete finish.

• Easy release reduces damage to concrete surface and improves finish.
• Minimizes surface blemishes and staining.
• Improves fair-faced concrete quality.
• Inhibits corrosion of steel formwork.

• Reduces opportunity of damage to formwork.
• Extends formwork usable life.
• Minimizes cleaning of formwork before re-use.
• Concentrate form reduces storage and transportation cost.

• Surface Preparation: Formwork must be cleaned of surface deposits, rusts, concrete, oil or other materials. Inadequate cleaning may lead to surface blemishes. Coating may timber formwork with a polyurethane sealer will protect the formwork, increase service life and improve concrete surface finish.
• New Moulds: No preparation is normally necessary unless metal moulds show signs of rust, then these must be wire brushed or treated with emery cloth and burnished clean before coating.
• Used Moulds: Must be thoroughly cleaned and free from old concrete, dirt, cement, laitance, old mould oil and grease, settles for cement and concrete deposits.

ROBUSTO RELEASE 108WB can be applied by using brush, sponge or by spray; Non-absorbent surfaces require a single application. New, unsealed timber surfaces may need recoating if the first application is absorbed into the timber. If the product is over applied excess material should be drained and then carefully removed by using a sponge or a cloth.

Note: Cleaning concrete forms after stripping, using of ROBUSTO RELEASE 108WB will minimize the time and effort requires for this stage.

• Rainfall:It is necessary to protect freshly coated formwork from rain which may dilute the emulsion before it has dried. Once dried the coating will withstand an occasional light shower but may be affected by heavy or continuous rain. In such cases, a further coat is advised once surface has dried out thoroughly.
• De-moulding: De-moulding can be carried out in the normal way and no special precautions are necessary.
• After De-moulding: Formwork surfaces must be thoroughly cleaned, but this is normally easy due to the excellent release action.
• Before Re-Use: The cleaned formwork surfaces must be recoated with ROBUSTO RELASE 108WB each time, in accordance with normal practice.

• Unsealed Timber or Plywood: Covers 70-90 m2 /6 liters depending on type of formwork and type of application.
• Steel or Sealed Plywood: Covers 100-150 m2 /6 liters depending on type of formwork and type of application
