CoatMasters sealers and vapor coating barriers

CoatMasters a superior product in comparison to the competitors.

·        The CoatMasters product is an environmentally friendly water based product with very low VOC and a much higher solids content that provides a very high stain resistance.  With CoatMasters you do not have to worry about a milky appearance that some sealers get after application.  CoatMasters provides long lasting protection against common household liquid stains, while maintaining its long term gloss shine appearance, greatly reduces efflorescence build up by also acting as an impregnating sealer, provides anti-graffiti protection (sacrificial) for cleaning and recoating, has quick dry time with excellent “hydrolytic” stability for moisture resistance, surface film is breathable and has excellent recoating properties.  In addition, CoatMasters Sealer also exhibits excellent adhesion to their substrate materials used in combination such as metal, wood, and plastic.  The use of these products qualifies for 1-LEED point under the “LEED for New Construction and Major Renovations”, section EQ Credit 4.2: Low Emitting Materials: Paints & Coatings.  

Additional benefits

·        Eliminates efflorescence effect from cementitious compositions.

THE HYDROPHOBIC HIGH-TECH AGGREGATE

The mineral lightweight aggregate ROTOCELL® becomes the high-tech waterrepellent granulate ROTOCELL PLUS® through a patented processing method. Due to this innovation a wide range of product
and processing advantages open up that increase energy efficiency and sustainability of products and applications significantly.


Natural expanded silicate was formed during the last volcanic eruption in Germany about 12,500 years ago.
Nature then produced an air-pore-rich, pebble-like mineral out of purely silicate raw materials was deposited just below the surface.
Since 1990, at its headquarters in Urmitz and Neuwied, Rhineland-Palatinate, ROTEC® has mined more than 180,000 tons of this ecologically excellent raw material per year and has been refining it into innovative
lightweight aggregates and ecologically valuable substrates.
NATURAL-EXPANDED SILICATE – A GIFT OF NATURE ROTEC® lightweight aggregates unite a world-class LCA:

• Mining in a nature and energy-saving open-pit-mining process
• Remediation of the mining areas into nature reserves or habitats
• On-site processing with low transportation costs
• Energy-efficient drying
• Refinement with ecological cleaning equipment
• Energy-efficient grinding and sieving
• Packaging-free and delivery in big bags or silo trucks

PUNCHouse Project 234

A green endeavor and the first LEED Platinum home built in Santa Monica - for well-renowned TV/media commentator, Lisa Ling, and husband, Dr. Paul Song, an LA based radiation oncologist. This house was built using green products and IMRAE Corporation is proud to have contributed in the realization of the couple’s quest for environmental responsiveness in their community. IMRAE Corporation provided the CoatMasters products for this project used in sealing various concrete surfaces, including seal penetration and topical application on custom designed concrete tiles manufactured by Smith-Laredo Specialty Surfaces for water protection.
CoatMasters sealers were the preferred choice for protective coating, and endorsed by Mike Taylor, President of Smith-Laredo Specialty Surfaces. The conceptualized bathroom designs made with 100% concrete tiles are subjected to different exposure conditions. To meet this challenge, various known brand sealers were evaluated side by side, and the CoatMasters sealers performed extremely well in terms of high water repellency that contributed to its superior water proofing resistance and required stain protection from various liquid drinks (i.e. coffee, soda, red wine, etc.).
“This is the right product for the intended application”, explained Mike Taylor to the architectural team committee of the PUNCHouse Project 234.
The special customized concrete tiles installed on all of the bathroom areas were exposed to various liquid contact and floor traffic conditions. For the concrete walls in the shower area, CoatMasters (CM) 3007, an impregnating sealer, provides “high penetrating effect on smooth micro porous surfaces”. Its main purpose is to seal concrete surfaces to prevent any capillary suction effect that would cause concrete to absorb water over time.

For other concrete wall areas, the CoatMasters (CM) Matte Sealer, a topical coating, was selected to provide a durable stain resistance from common drinks such as coffee, soda, and red wine. It also provides abrasion resistant properties which helps maintain the original appearance of the concrete surface.

All CoatMasters products used are environmentally friendly, and easily meets the VOC limit requirement of the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD), and the use of these products qualifies for 1-LEED point under the “LEED for New Construction and Major Renovations”, section EQ Credit 4.2: Low Emitting Materials: Paints & Coatings.
A remarkable true “Green Living” in many years to come with a responsive awareness in pursuit of environmental sustainability is the hallmark of Lisa Ling and Dr. Paul Song. IMRAE Corporation highly believes in these core values and shall always collaborate itself with concerned groups and other institutions sharing similar goals and objectives.

CoatMasters Dampprofing Coating

CM Dampprofing Coating:


A vapor coating retarder that can be applied on new precast concrete.  An excellent choice for in ground vaults.  The product is a mixture of emulsified acrylic (min. 50% post-consumer) and bituminous polymers of low VOC designed for above and below grade coating applications on concrete, stucco, masonry type substrates, modified bitumen, and rigid polyurethane foam ply, and rigid PVC materials. This modified acrylic and bituminous coating also provides excellent adhesion on incidental applications on metal and wood substrates.

CM Dampprofing Coating is a high solids system and provides a seamless durable coating, superior adhesion and flexibility to a variety of substrates, contains fungicide and mildewcide protection, UV protection, and heat reflective properties saving cooling costs, and provides water resistance and vapor permeability. The CM Dampprofing Coating comes in standard gray color and may also be custom color matched.


PRODUCT APPLICATION:
The product can be applied either by brush, roller or spray. For spray applications, the product can be both applied either by spray atomization or airless techniques. Please follow the spray equipment manufacturer recommendations for spray applications and optimize when the desired coating is achieved. For airless or air assisted sprayers we suggest to use 0.027 or 0.031 size tip and always maintain a uniform coating application.
