Smith’s Base Boost

Smith’s Base Boost is a blend of silicates used as an additive to Smith’s Color Floor and/or Smith’s Color Wall to promote substrate adhesion for base or primary colors as well as increase the stains durability.  Smith’s Color Floor and Smith’s Color Wall stains already achieve superior mechanical adhesion as a result of the modified acrylic carrier, but adding Base Boost into the Smith’s Color Floor stain concentrate produces an additional bond by reacting with the unhydrated calcium hydroxide found in the concrete. Smith’s Base Boost should not be used for application to overlays, previously coated substrates or as an additive for highlight colors. Additionally, Smith’s Base Boost can be used as a concrete densifier for polished concrete for improved durability and abrasion resistance vs. traditional sodium silicate based concrete densifier products.
