Publication number: 20120247372Abstract: The present invention provides acidic compositions and methods that are adapted to impart color to cementitious or mineral substrate surfaces. Specifically, the present invention relates to acidic compositions and methods adapted to treat cementitious or mineral substrate surfaces that have the advantage of using a less corrosive acid-based solution. The acidic composition incorporates species including a weak base in equilibrium with a conjugate acid. The presence of such species moderates the corrosive behavior of the acid while still allowing excellent coloring action to occur.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 6, 2012Publication date: October 4, 2012Inventors: Sanford Lee Hertz, Ed Daraskevich, William Tao, Jason J. Netherton, Matthew S. Gebhard, T. Haward Killilea, Kevin W. Evanson

Patent number: 8202581Abstract: A cement fiberboard substrate is treated on at least one edge of the substrate with an aqueous solution containing at least one phosphorus acid or salt of a phosphorus acid. The treated edge is overcoated with a sealer, primer or topcoat. The resulting prefinished fiber cement siding product has improved coating adhesion, especially near burnished regions and near edges and corners proximate the burnished regions. A phosphorus acid or salt of a phosphorus acid also may be added to the sealer to provide further improvement in coating adhesion.Type: GrantFiled: February 15, 2008Date of Patent: June 19, 2012Assignee: Valspar Sourcing, Inc.Inventors: Glen O.
