Ensure Exceptional Waterproofing of Pool Decks, Walkways and Patios

New SherCrete Flexible Concrete Waterproofer Offers the Protection of a Two-part Coating With the Ease of a One-Part Coat

CLEVELAND (March 12, 2007) - Sherwin-Williams introduces SherCrete Flexible Concrete Waterproofer, a one-of-a-kind, single-component, water-based formula that boasts the waterproof protection of a two-part coating with the ease of a one-part coat. For those looking for efficient, easy application and superior performance, SherCrete Flexible Concrete Waterproofer is the ideal waterproofer.

SherCrete Flexible Concrete Waterproofer is as versatile as it is durable and is exclusively engineered for a variety of vertical or horizontal substrates. Its ability to repel rain and humidity makes it suitable for areas where water and moisture can assault the substrate, including pool decks, walkways and patios. This one-coat, low-VOC formula has a film surface that breathes, allowing moisture vapor to pass right through, while preventing water from migrating into interior surfaces. And, SherCrete Flexible Concrete Waterproofer bridges hairline cracks, reducing prep and repair time prior to coating.

The unique combination of acrylic resin and mineral aggregate provides a skid-resistant surface for an ultimate, weather-resistant decorative finish. Tintable to hundreds of colors, SherCrete Flexible Concrete Waterproofer can create the exact look the customer envisions.
