Product Description

Quick Release is a general purpose, economical form release agent. The ingredients in Quick Release are physically active to repel water as well as concrete. Additionally, chemically active compounds react with lime present in fresh concrete to create a releasing compound directly on the form surface. This product is usable on most form surfaces, except foam and soft rubber forms.

Advantages of this Economical Form Release Agent

• Very economical

• Provides a crisp, positive release

• Reduces form cleaning as well as maintenance costs

• Forms become self-cleaning with continued use

• Resists removal by foot traffic and rain

• Usable on forms previously treated with competitive form oils

• Surpasses performance requirement of US Corps of Engineers, GSA and Bureau of Reclamation specifications for nonstaining form oil

• Ready to use – that is to say requires no dilution.

• Low odor

• Storable at temperatures below freezing

• Good sprayability with traditional hand pump tank sprayers down to 32° F (O° C). May require higher pressure sprayers at temperatures below 32° F (O° C)

• For extreme cold temperatures, use one of Nox-Crete’s form release agents for low temperature applications

• Apply up to three weeks in advance of concrete pour

• Treated forms are promptly stackable

• Protects metal and wood forms from weather damage prior to pour

• Finally, will not stain concrete surfaces and concrete is paintable with proper surface preparation

Nox-Crete™

In 1956, Carl Linn introduced the world’s first chemically active form release agent.

While working as a chemist for the United Petroleum Group in Omaha, Nebraska, Linn noticed concrete contractors were using the company’s oil and grease compounds to prevent fresh concrete from bonding to forms. Not only were the oil and grease compounds difficult to work with, but the resulting concrete was discolored and unpaintable. Plywood forms also suffered, failing after just a few pours. Concrete workers had struggled with these issues for years, but Linn had an idea.

He developed a chemically active release agent, Nox-Crete Form Coating, and a chemically active form maintenance product, Nox-Crete Deactivator. With Nox-Crete Form Coating, contractors produced concrete that looked better and wood forms that lasted longer. With Deactivator, the concrete buildup could be safely and easily removed from tools and equipment.

Today, Nox-Crete continues to manufacture chemical solutions to concrete problems.
