Premium PCE 1066L: Ultimate Dry-Shake Surface Treatment Solution

Entrapped air bubbles rise to the surface during finishing. Under the pressure of a power trowel, these bubbles can burst, creating small pits (pocking) or cause the surface to delaminate. PCE 1066L's ultra-low air content virtually eliminates this risk, ensuring a monolithic, high-integrity surface.

Yes, it is highly recommended. The excellent cohesiveness and reduced bleeding provided by PCE 1066L prevent the dry-shake material from being absorbed into the mix or floating on bleed water. This results in a uniform, high-quality wear surface with consistent performance and appearance.

PCE 1066L is designed to have a minimal impact on setting time. It provides the workability needed for placement and initial finishing without significantly altering the concrete's natural setting characteristics. This allows for predictable and conventional finishing windows.

Standard water reducers can often entrain air or make the concrete sticky, both of which are detrimental to achieving a high-quality, hard-troweled finish. PCE 1066L is specially formulated to avoid these issues, prioritizing low air, excellent cohesion, and ease of finishing above all else.

Absolutely. By enabling a lower water-cement ratio, it increases compressive strength and reduces permeability. This results in a floor that is not only harder but also more resistant to water, abrasion, dusting, and chemicals, extending its service life in harsh industrial environments.
