Trueprep Lime Stop: Your First Line of Defense Against Lime Bleed
No more lime efflorescence ruining your freshly painted surfaces. Trueprep Lime Stop is a high-performance, water-based primer specifically designed to tackle the persistent issue of lime bleed-through on new concrete and cementitious finishes. If you’ve ever seen a beautiful paint job marred by a chalky, white film, you know how important it is to address the problem at its source. Trueprep Lime Stop is the professional’s choice for ensuring a flawless, long-lasting finish.
Stop Efflorescence in its Tracks
Trueprep Lime Stop works by penetrating the surface of new concrete and creating a durable, hydrophobic barrier. This specialized acrylic formula effectively seals the surface, preventing the migration of lime and other soluble salts that cause efflorescence. By stopping lime bleed before it starts, you can be confident that your topcoat will maintain its true color and integrity for years to come.
