Garage Floor Densifier
Garage Floor Densifier
Perhaps you don’t want a coating or anything else on your garage floor and you just want to protect it from stains. Perhaps you have a new slab and you are going to use a containment mat or garage floor tile, but you still want to protect the entire floor from stains, while strengthening the floor from within.
A garage floor densifier is not a coating. A garage floor densifier causes a chemical reaction that will permanently and significantly improve the performance of your concrete slab by increasing moisture resistance, stain resistance and increasing strength. It will also greatly increase abrasion resistance — how easily the floor gets damaged when you drag something over it. When used properly a densifier is incredibly useful in preventing damage caused by moisture, road salts and winter weather. If you plan on installing garage floor tiles or mats, we highly recommend B4 prep solution and densifier
A densifier can also be used in conjunction with an acid stain for a grind and polish application. A densifier can also be used as a stand alone method to protect the concrete floor. TL37 garage floor densifier can be used prior to Rust Bullet to fortify your concrete. While it will not ‘fix’ a poor concrete job, a garage floor densifier will help to reduce dusting and harden softer concrete.
If you are going to do a grind and polish or acid stain followed by grind and polish, in most cases you will want a professional involved. There are however many applications where densifier can be applied with little or no prep over a garage floor, a shop floor or even an industrial floor.
Densifier For Increased Strength, Reduced Dusting and Better Performance
If performance and strength is your primary concern, simply applying TL37 over a clean garage floor with a basic garden sprayer, is a great application. It will have some stain and waterproofing benefits because of the changes to the concrete, but primarily it will make your concrete harder, less dusty and more resistant to the things we tend to do in our garage and wish we had not 🙂
Remember this is a chemical reaction with little to no change in appearance of the floor itself.
Garage Floor Densifier with Waterproofing
If you are looking for protection from the elements, especially when used in conjunction with modular garage flooring or other products that sit on your slab, using a product like TL39 to densify your floor and protect it from the elements is a great idea. It will helpkeep moisture from penetrating your slab which helps to prevent the damage that is done by harsh winters and trapped moisture.
Densifier with Waterproofing & Stain Resistance
We have a lot of customers who want a rock hard garage floor that is easy to clean, but they have major concerns with epoxy and other garage floor coatings. The basic issue is weld slag and other heavy duty work can damage coatings. If nothing is done to the floor then every drop of oil and grime will penetrate the slab making stains that are difficult to remove — and make future coatings difficult. Using a densifier like TL37 followed by TL40 concrete conditioner is an ideal way to both strengthen and protect your garage floor, with minimal aesthetic changes. Please note TL40 has Silane as a primary component. When combined with TL37 densifer TL40 give you the best protection for a densifier, stain resistance and waterproofing.
Mechanic shops, airplane hangers and hobbyists are among the people who love this solution
Using a Densifier in Conjunction with Other Garage Flooring
If I were purchasing garage floor tiles, parking mats or another form of garage flooring that may let some moisture through to the slab, I would strongly consider one of the densifier options above. I would either do TL39 or TL37 and TL40.

TL37 is a one component extra strength water based lithium based solution designed to densify cement and concrete substrates. The lithium based densifier reacts with the cementitious ingredients to densify while allowing deep penetration to chemically harden and fortify the substrate. After the chemical reaction occurs, the substrate will be more abrasion resistant and help protect the surface from wear, moisture and efflorescence while remaining breathable. Use on garage floors, shop floors, sidewalks and driveways.
Full Strength Coverage: 100 - 400 Sq. Ft. Per Gallon
Real World Coverage: 250- 275 Sq. Ft. Per Gallon
Diluted Coverage: Up To 800 Sq. Ft. Per Gallon
Increases durability by improving resistance to freeze thaw effects and improves abrasion resistance and durability.
Improves weathering, densifies and reduces efflorescence of natural stone, precast stone and cement.
Protects and fortifies concrete as it seals against moisture damage.
Application will reduce dusting and increase concrete life
The application of this product will increase the abrasion resistance of most substrates. Results will vary according to substrate type.

TL39 is a one component water based siliconate and lithium based solution designed to densify and add waterproofing characteristics to cement and concrete substrates. The densifier reacts with the cementitious ingredients to densify and add water repellency while allowing deep penetration to chemically harden and fortify the substrate. After the chemical reaction occurs, the substrate will be more abrasion resistant and help protect the surface from wear, moisture and efflorescence while remaining breathable. This product is great for indoor or outdoor application including garage floors, sidewalks and driveways

TL40 is a one component water based ultra small particle size self-crosslinking hydrophobic organic polymer and silane/siloxane designed specifically for use in the grind and polish of concrete/cement as a surface conditioner and stain guard to be applied before the final polishing step to increase long term performance, gloss and stain resistance. It can also be used in DIY applications by mopping it on a floor that has been primed with TL37. One gallon covers 800 - 1200 Sq. Ft. with real world coverage being closer to 800
The 7940 is not a stand alone densifier. It is really a stain guard. If used alone, it tends to penetrate to deep and leave voids on the top of the surface. The 7937 basically densifies first and acts as a primer per say.
* Increases durability and stain resistance and abrasion resistance.
*Improves weathering, densifies and reduces efflorescence.
*Protects and fortifies concrete as it seals against moisture damage.
*Application will reduce dusting and increase concrete life.
*Reduces water absorption into the substrate.
VOC: 50 grams per liter
TEST AREA:
Concrete substrates vary from geographical regions throughout the country and the actual condition of the concrete can provide varying results. Results can also vary from floor machine weights, RPM speed and the sequence of polishing stages and diamond grit sizes, therefore, test a minimum 4 ft. by 4 ft. area on each type of concrete to determine suitability before undertaking the entire project.
The product may slightly darken the surface. The overall finish characteristics are determined by the polishing diamond grit size and concrete composition.
