MMS 950 is required when relative humidity (RH) within the concrete substrate exceeds 75% when tested with in-situ probes. MMS 950 should be applied to cracks prior to those cracks being filled with rigid epoxy.

Floor Aid Flexible Membrane 528 should be used to treat all cracks, control joints & cold pour joints in the substrate. (Do not fill cracks with Flexible Membrane 528. Rigid epoxy such as Groutless EZPour Epoxy 158 or Leveling Fill Epoxy 162 should be used)
