THETAGUARD™ HS-3035

• Short-Chain Fluorochemical Technology (meets the goal of the US EPA 2010/2015 PFOA Stewardship Program) 
• Partially Fluorinated material that provides exceptional protection for hard surfaces with little or no change in appearance
• Excellent Oil and Water Repellency and Hold-Out resists soils, stains, chemical degradation, efflorescence
• Vapor permeable for reduced cracking, spalling, freeze/thaw damage
• Water based with low VOC
• Ambient cure for ease of use
• Readily dilutes in water/alcohol/glycol mixture with excellent shelf stability
• Non-Acidic for safe use on surfaces that will etch such as polished limestone and marble
• Good stability on alkaline surfaces such as concrete, grout and masonry
• Physically and chemically bonds to substrates 
• UV resistant for increased coating life
• Treated surfaces are easier to clean, and improves newness retention

Formulary

Hard surface applications will vary depending on the surface and the performance required, but typically 10% Thetaguard HS-3035 will provide excellent repellency on fine stone, concrete, brick, stucco, pavers and tile when applied at the rate of 1 gallon per 200 to 400 square feet. Low porosity stones and surfaces will yield higher coverage.

Application Guidance

Recommended dilution rates vary from 6-15% of Thetaguard HS-3035 depending on the application, application rate, porosity of the substrate, desired performance and cost parameters. To improve wetting and penetration into particularly dense stones, and to improve dispersion clarity, up to 5% of a polar organic solvent can be added. Excess liquid applied to a substrate should be wiped up if it has not penetrated after 15-20 minutes to avoid hazing from over-application of the product. Note: Cure time for maximum water protection is approximately 24-48 hours; however, repellency will start to develop almost immediately. Application rates, concentration of Thetaguard HS-3035, and temperature/humidity can impact dry/cure times.
