- Makes exposed aggregate finishes easier and more consistent
- It is topically applied to freshly-placed concrete to prevent cement paste hardening and achieve more controlled exposed aggregate finishes
- Unlike sugar-based retarders with uncertain levels of retardation, D-Activator selectively halts the hydration process down to a controlled depth
- Provides a longer window before the surface paste must be removed, it allows underlying concrete to harden properly, locking in aggregate and reducing pop-outs
- Water-soluble for easy removal with high pressure water washing scrubbing equipment
- Coverage: 150 square feet per gallon
- Size: 5 Gallon Pail
