ARMOVEX DryLock – Vapor Barrier & Surface Preparation Layer

Armovex DryLock is a single-component vapor barrier and preparation layer designed to control moisture transmission from the concrete slab while removing oils, salts, and surface contaminants that interfere with adhesion. DryLock stabilizes the slab, conditions the surface, and prepares the concrete for ARMOVEX BCX application. It is not a top coat, not a decorative layer, and not used as a cosmetic finish — it is the moisture and surface control step that supports the success of the ARMOVEX system.

What DryLock Does

✔️ Creates a vapor barrier between the concrete and coating system
✔️ Helps manage moisture concerns before BCX is applied
✔️ Removes oils, salts, and residue that disrupt adhesion
✔️ Conditions the slab for stronger bonding and system longevity
✔️ Single-component material — no Part A/B mixing

Coverage

A 5-gallon bucket covers approximately 2,500 sq ft, depending on concrete condition, porosity, contamination level, and installer preference.

How Contractors Use DryLock

• Applied directly to the slab before BCX

• Used to address vapor and moisture concerns

• Helps eliminate common slab contaminants prior to coating

• Supports adhesion performance by preparing the concrete correctly

• Not a decorative top coat — strictly a preparation and vapor control layer

Ideal Job Conditions

Basements, garages, ground-level concrete, moisture-prone slabs, older floors, oil-contaminated surfaces, and projects where ensuring proper adhesion and vapor control reduces callbacks.

Why Contractors Choose DryLock

• No catalyst or multi-part mixing

• Reduces failure points from moisture and contamination

• Controls variables that typically create callbacks and warranty issues

• Helps create a predictable starting point for BCX installation
