HOW IT WORKS
Foam Release is a thickened combination chemically active and physical barrier type release agent which positively prevents concrete sticking and substantially reduces form stripping time.

APPLICATIONS

Designed for use on expanded polystyrene (EPS) foam forms used in creating block outs, brick ledges, trench drains, etc.
Also works well on expanded polystyrene (EPS) form liners and reveals.

ADVANTAGES

Provides a crisp positive release that does not degrade the foam form or form liner. Removal of foam beads from concrete surfaces following form removal is practically eliminated.
Thixotropic viscosity ensures sufficient coverage on both horizontal and vertical surfaces.
Often allows for reuse of form or form liner.
Reduces concrete surface voids (bugholes) and will not stain concrete surfaces when properly applied.
Contains a fugitive dye for ease of application.
Drys on form surfaces and is not slippery.
Prevents accumulation of dust when dry.
Concrete surfaces are free of residue and the natural bonding characteristics of paints, plasters, mortars, epoxies and other surface coatings are not affected when Foam Release is properly applied.
Meets all federal and state VOC regulations.

PRECAUTIONS

Water based, chemically active form release agents are not visible on applied surfaces once dry. This is normal and does not affect release agent performance. After form stripping, a white, powdery film will be present on form surfaces. This causes no adverse affects on the form or the concrete and should not be confused with buildup.
Do not use when forms are to be removed in less than 12 hours unless artificial heat is used to accelerate concrete cure.
Application may be subject to removal by heavy rain.
Prevent contact with reinforcing steel.
Protect from freezing. If allowed to freeze, product packaging may rupture and the emulsion stability of this product may be affected, making it difficult to keep product mixed during application. Product which is suspected of freezing should not be used.
Verify that product is within the “USE BY” date stated on product packaging. Do not use expired product. The use of expired product may result in poor product performance or failure.
Do not apply if temperature is at or below 32° F (0° C). However, freezing temperatures do not affect product performance after applied product has dried.

USE INSTRUCTIONS

Request current product literature, labels and material safety data sheets from manufacturer and read thoroughly before product use.
Site environmental conditions, substrate conditions and construction have a major effect on product selection, application methods, procedures and rates, appearance and performance. Product literature provides general information applicable to some conditions. However, an adequate site test application by the purchaser or installer in advance of field scale use is mandatory (irrespective of any other verbal or written representations) to verify that product and quantities purchased can be satisfactorily applied and will achieve desired appearance and performance under intended use conditions.
Mix well before use and before each withdrawal from original container. Use Nox-Crete’s specially designed drum agitator for mixing 55 gallon drums and tank agitator for mixing 275 gallon bulk tanks.
Typical application rate is 500-1,000 sf/gal (12-24 sm/L).
Form surfaces should be reasonably dry and clean prior to application.
can be applied by brush, roller or sprayer apparatus equipped with the correct spray tip. Use of the Perfect Form & Concrete Sprayer is recommended using the 8005-LP tip.
Excess material in the form of puddles should be picked up with rags.

Foam Release should not be allowed to freeze. Because of this, during the winter, extra shipping charges will be assessed due to freeze protect services needed. During these times, this product will have to be shipped on an LTL carrier that has the capabilities to carry out this service. You will be contacted with the extra charges needed.
