The Smooth-On Forton VF-774 is a game-changing advancement in Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete (GFRC) technology, offering unparalleled benefits and advantages in the fabrication of architectural concrete products. As a cutting-edge polymer additive, Forton VF-774 eliminates the need for a seven-day wet cure, allowing for faster production and improved long-term durability of the GFRC composite.

This innovative solution not only enhances the workability of the mix at low water-cement ratios but also ensures easy spraying of vertical surfaces without sagging. The complete dispersion of iron oxide pigments guarantees batch-to-batch color consistency of face mixes, while the UV stability of the Forton polymer maintains the original colors of the architectural finishes.

Furthermore, the Forton VF-774 additive produces hard-cured face mixes, allowing for better sand blasting uniformity. The tightened, denser cured product reduces absolute moisture absorption and vapor permeability, making it an ideal choice for applications that require high durability and resistance to environmental factors.

The Forton VF-774 is compliant with Appendix G of MNL 130, the Manual for Quality Control for Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete Products from the PCI, and is available in 5-gallon pails, 55-gallon drums, and totes. It is essential to store the product in a closed container, away from direct sunlight and heat sources, and to use it within a year of opening.

To achieve optimal results, it is crucial to follow the recommended mixing and application procedures. This includes pre-mixing the VF-774, measuring and mixing the required materials, and applying a release agent to the mold. The mixture can be poured, vibrated, or sprayed into the mold, depending on the specific application requirements.

By incorporating the Forton VF-774 additive into your GFRC production, you can significantly improve the quality, durability, and aesthetic appeal of your architectural concrete products, while reducing production time and costs. Trust the Smooth-On brand, a renowned leader in the field of GFRC technology, to provide you with the highest quality products and solutions for your specific needs.
