| What
is Creto DPS?
Creto DPS is a PERMANENT,
ONE TIME application sealant that completely
waterproofs, strengthens, cures,
dustproofs, and preserves most masonry and
cement-type surfaces. By penetrating deep
and reacting with the free lime and alkali
present in concrete, Creto DPS solidifies
the masonry into a solid, non-porous mass.
This creates a permanent internal seal that
BECOMES PART OF THE MASONRY – not just a
surface coating. Creto DPS protects without
changing the color or texture of the surface. |

Creto DPS is not a surface sealer. Creto DPS effectively
starts working as a sealer about 2 to 3 mm below
the surface. However, Creto DPS is much
more than just a sealer.
Creto DPS contains a proprietary catalyst which causes a chain reaction to start:
- It allows DPS to penetrate below the surface of the concrete or alkali bearing substrate where it “pursues moisture” down through the substrate.
- Upon contact with the “free” alkali (lime) and calcium hydroxides (in that moisture) it reacts instantly to form a silica gel membrane on the (moist) surfaces of all the voids and particulate, (sand, aggregate and cement) immediately waterproofing the substrate.
- Over time, this silica gel membrane hydrates and hardens into a solid, yet, breathing, glass impregnated mass which provides a permanent seal and moisture barrier, as well as increased surface hardness/dusting resistance and compressive and flexural strengths.
What are the benefits of Creto DPS?
- Densifies, hardens, strengthens, and greatly extends life of concrete treated
- Water based, totally non-toxic, environmentally and ecologically friendly
- A one time application and permanent solution
- Waterproofs (holding a hydrostatic head)
- Retards penetration of grease, oils, and acids
- Reduces or eliminates wear due to abrasion, freeze-thaw and salt attack
- Reduces or eliminates bacteria growth
- “Stabilizes” concrete substrate
- Reduces or eliminates sweating
- Enables easier ice and snow removal
- Increases bonding of any top coating 300%
- “Cures” new concrete uniformly
