High-Performance, Biodegradable Release Agent for Concrete Formwork

EVERBUILD® 206 Strike Release Oil is a premium-quality, water-based chemical release agent designed to facilitate the easy removal of concrete shuttering, leaving clean and well-formed edges. Its solvent- and mineral oil-free emulsion is based on biodegradable synthetic oil, making it environmentally friendly and suitable for various mould materials.

Key Features & Benefits

• Biodegradable & Eco-Friendly: Formulated without solvents or mineral oils, reducing environmental impact.
• Versatile Application: Suitable for use on moulds made from wood, metal, polypropylene, ABS, polyurethane, and other plastics susceptible to damage by conventional release agents.
• High-Quality Finish: Produces a stain- and blemish-free concrete surface with minimal blowholes.
• Excellent Adhesion: Clings effectively to vertical mould surfaces, ensuring consistent coverage.
• Protects Formwork: Guards against steel corrosion and early ageing, extending the lifespan of moulds.
• Ready to Use: No dilution required; apply directly by spray, brush, or roller.

Ideal For

• Smooth non-absorbent formwork.
• Absorbent formwork.

Application Instructions

1. Surface Preparation: Ensure all formwork is clean and dry, with any residues of rust or concrete removed.
2. Application: Stir thoroughly before use. Apply undiluted using a spray, brush, or roller, ensuring a thin and even coverage.
3. Drying Time: Allow an evaporation period of 20 minutes at +20°C before casting concrete.
4. Note: Avoid over-application, which can result in dusting of the concrete surface. Any excess material in the bottom of the moulds should be mopped up prior to the placement of the concrete.

Limitations

• Apply only a thin film; overdosing may cause dusting.
• For new and unsealed timbers or other highly absorbent formwork, pre-treatment is recommended with a second coat prior to use.

Cleaning of Tools

Clean tools and equipment with water immediately after use. Cured material must be removed mechanically.
