Can the Ashford Formula be used in conjunction with bond-breakers on tilt-up construction?
Yes. Curecrete Distribution, Inc. has on file letters from many bondbreaker manufacturers certifying that their products will work well on Ashford Formula treated casting beds. The Ashford Formula should be applied to the floor/casting bed at time of placement. The bondbreaker can then be applied later per usual procedures. Another option is to cure the slab with a dissipating curing agent, apply the bondbreaker, lift the panels thoroughly strip and clean the floor, then apply the Ashford Formula. Note: The Ashford Formula must be applied to clean, bare concrete so that it can penetrate. Bondbreakers and/or curing agents must be thoroughly and completely removed from the floor before the Ashford Formula is applied.
