Roadware MatchCrete™ Clear — Introduction

Roadware MatchCrete™ Clear (MCC) is a professional-grade, two-component aliphatic polyurethane engineered for repairing cracks, spalls, joints, and surface defects in concrete exposed to UV sunlight. Unlike traditional repair materials, MCC cures to a transparent finish, allowing it to blend naturally with surrounding concrete tones or be customized with colored sands and pigments for seamless, decorative repairs.

What Makes MatchCrete™ Clear Unique

MatchCrete™ Clear is formulated to remain clear and color-stable even under prolonged sunlight exposure. This makes it ideal for architectural, decorative, and polished concrete surfaces where appearance is critical. Whether repairing exposed aggregate, colored concrete, stamped patterns, or polished floors, MCC delivers long-lasting, visually compatible results.

Key Performance Features

• Sets in 20–40 minutes and fully cures within a few hours.
• Remains clear and reflects surrounding colors for natural blending.
• Accepts colored sand, pigments, or concrete dust for custom color matching.
• Honeable in 30–60 minutes at 70°F for flush, smooth repairs.
• Compatible with needle-tip injection for fine cracks.
• Supports heavy traffic after curing.
• UV-resistant formula prevents brittleness and discoloration over time.

Basic Application Overview

1. Assess the repair goal with the slab owner to determine the desired finish and approach.

3. Select sand based on desired color and texture; use clean, dry silica or specialty sands.
4. Add color using small amounts of powdered pigments or concrete dust as needed.
5. Apply MCC directly from a dual cartridge, adding sand as you go—never pre-place sand.
