Mould Release Agent (MNC-TL)

Product Description

Mould Release Agent/Shuttering Oil For Concrete

MNC-TL

Description
A chemical release agent, which reacts with the cement to produce a smooth finish to concrete, MNC-TL is applied to the inner face of shuttering, formwork and moulds, before the casting of concrete. MNC-TL is used to break the bond and allow an easy release between the cast concrete and the formwork. May also be used to stop the build-up of concrete on tools, handling equipment and machinery.

MNC-TL is wax-based.

Advantages
Easy bond breaking.
Easy stripping of forms.
Smooth, stainfree concrete.
Formwork is protected against continuous wetting and drying action.
Can safely be used on all tools etc.

Uses
Spray or paint a thin coating of MNC-TL onto the casting surface of all forming before each pour or cast of concrete. Apply to the backs and sides of all forming at regular intervals to allow for easy cleaning. The regular use of MNC-TL on timber forming lowers maintenance costs and increases the effective life as well as producing a waterproof coating.

Caution
Care must be taken to avoid applying THICK coatings to NEW hardwood or plywood forming, as this could cause damage to the surface finish.
MNC-TL must not be allowed to come into contact with any reinforcement as it stops the concrete from bonding to the steel.
MNC-TL causes a dust film to form where it touches the concrete surface. This film must be brushed away before any other work contacting the concrete surface is carried out.

Application
MNC-TL is supplied ready for use, no thinning is necessary. Apply by brush, or spray a thin coating of MUHU. To wooden or steel shuttering formwork or moulds, before each concrete cast. For plant, handling equipment and machinery, etc. Hose clean and spray with MNC-TL at the end of work. For hand tools, buckets, etc. Simply soak in the container of MNC-TL and allow to dry.
