The Downside of Dry Shake Hardeners

For years, many specifiers have considered dry shake hardeners to be one of the
go-to options for help with concrete hardening. After all, it’s been thought that
such hardeners will protect concrete from wear and tear.
Without that protection, concrete structures would be left vulnerable to abrasive
and erosive environments. That can lead to significant damage, leaving grooves
in concrete surfaces and otherwise negatively impacting the structural integrity
of a building.
Due to how critical that damage can be, it’s understandable that many turn to
traditionally acceptable solutions like dry shake hardeners. These solutions
seemed especially appealing for some time as professionals had fewer options
for resolving the issue and relied on what they knew to be industry-standard
methods for the time
