    • Lubricates concrete surface
    • Promotes proper hydration
    • Reduces surface crazing
    • Reduces efflorescence
    • Improves abrasion resistance
    • Chemically reacts with entire mix design
    • Promotes flatter, thicker, denser cream cap

    “SikaCem-190 Concrete Control puts the contractor in charge of the concrete workability and timing of the finishing process.”
