There are typical adverse effects of using acrylic latex, tar, or other asphalt products often mistakenly used to seal steel roofs or concrete. Unlike SANI-TRED products, acrylic latex products are water soluble and as such are not water-proof! The good news is that acrylic latex products bond very well to steel! The bad news is that acrylic latex products actually absorb and retain corrosive water like a sponge, shrink severely, crack, peels, and in themselves are the cause of massive corrosion damage to steel! Acrylic latex products do not bond well to concrete and easily detaches from concrete. Standing water will actually break down and eventually dissolve acrylic latex and is the cause of detachment from concrete!

The greatest mystery about acrylic latex coatings is how or why are they being marketed, sold, or used for waterproofing. Latex products were originally designed and used for indoor coatings such as interior home wall paints for this simple reason, they are not water proof! You figure it out!

Vermin such as rats, mice, cock roaches, grass hoppers and crickets are attracted to acrylic latex products and readily eat them! They must be tasty, maybe like kids eating Elmer's Glue?

The good news is that SANI-TRED products taste terrible! Nothing wants to eat them! SANI-TRED permanently bonds to all prepared steel and concrete surfaces, is completely waterproof, prevents corrosion, and will not crack, peel, or detach!

Remember, SANI-TRED is the real grain bin sealing product!
