3 PROSOCO, Inc. Page 3 PURPOSE OF TESTING: Six types of rock-face cast stone were submitted to PROSOCO, Inc. s Testing Laboratory with a request to determine if application of the products evaluated would produce any surface alteration during new construction cleaning operations. A request was made to determine if PROSOCO, Inc. s brick cleaners would be compatible on the submitted cast stone, as the cast stone is commonly used as an accent for brick. Additionally, the effectiveness of water repellents and stain repellents, suitable for cast stone, were evaluated. A. New Construction Cleaning Burnished Custom Masonry Cleaner, Enviro Klean Safety Klean, and Vana Trol were evaluated at various dilutions for removal of laboratory applied mortar. To simulate new construction soiling, all tiles are placed on a bench with finished surface facing upward. Hollow cylinders measuring 50 mm in diameter and 75 mm tall are positioned on top of each tile and filled with a wet mixture of Ash Grove Type N cementitious mortar. The wet, mortar-filled cylinder is allowed to remain in contact with the tile for 10 minutes before removal. Soiled tiles are allowed to dry before test cleaning. Heavy deposits of mortar are removed with dry scraping after 24 hours. Prepared cleaning solutions are then evaluated for their effectiveness in removing residual Ash Grove Type N mortar staining after 7 days, 14 days, and 21 days of curing. B. Limiting Surface Alterations Testing Burnished Custom Masonry Cleaner, Enviro Klean Safety Klean, and Vana Trol were evaluated at various dilutions to determine if a cleaning program implemented to remove excess mortar and related new construction soiling would otherwise alter the appearance of cleaned surfaces. Surface Alteration was evaluated visually based upon perceived discoloration or erosion/etching of the masonry unit. Aggregate Exposure is the visual examination of the tile comparing aggregate exposure of the untreated control surface to surfaces cleaned with selected product(s) at given dilutions. Surface Pigment Alteration/Removal is the visual examination of the tile comparing the surface pigmentation of the untreated control to surfaces cleaned with selected product(s) at given dilutions. Matrix Erosion is the visual examination comparing the untreated control surface to surfaces cleaned with selected products at given dilutions looking for any potential erosion/digestion of the cementitious matrix of the tile. Staining is the visual examination for changes that are the result of a chemical reaction that leaves a staining precipitate. The following is the scale used for reporting results of all categories: 0 no change 3 heavy 1 slight 4 excessive 2 moderate C. Water Repellent Evaluation Weather Seal Siloxane WB Concentrate, Custom Masonry Sealer and Weather Seal Siloxane PD were evaluated on the submitted samples for their ability to provide water repellency. E. Stain Resistance Stand Off Stone, Tile & Masonry Protector, Stand Off SLX100 Water & Repellent, and Stand Off Impregnator were evaluated for its ability to resist staining agents applied to the submitted samples. Enviro Klean 2010 All Surface Cleaner diluted with 10 parts fresh water was evaluated for its ability to remove the staining agents from the treated samples.

9 PROSOCO, Inc. Page 9 CONCLUSIONS New Construction Cleaning Based on the test results, all cleaners and all dilutions performed well in removing excess mortar smears on the submitted cast stone. The cleaners performed well in removing the mortar soils even after allowing the mortar to remain on the surface of the cast stone for 21 days under ideal curing conditions. It is also recommended that the selected cleaners always be used in the lowest possible concentration, typically a 1:3 dilution for Burnished Custom Masonry Cleaner, a 1:3 dilution for Enviro Klean Safety Klean, and a 1:10 dilution of Vana Trol. To facilitate easier removal of excess mortar and construction dirt while minimizing any potential adverse affect on the cast stone, clean within 7 days of construction. RECOMMENDATIONS New Construction Cleaning Recommendations for cleaning for the cast stone submitted by Liberty Cast Stone, Whitney, TX are provided in the chart below. Recommendations are based on the optimum dilution for complete removal of mortar.

Additionally, there was no substrate deterioration on the same surfaces treated with the same cleaners on different days. Therefore, it is our determination that it is the high-powered water spray rather than the cleaners causing the deterioration. Because of this, it is recommended that the substrates be cleaned with garden-hose water pressure. When garden-hose water pressure was used during testing in the lab little to no deterioration was noted.

14 PROSOCO, Inc. Page 14 SECTION C PROTECTIVE WATER REPELLENTS The testing described below evaluates the suitability of water repellent treatments. The surface treatments evaluated were selected for their suitability for application based on the following selection criteria: 1. Weatherproofing properties 2. Color change 3. Ease of application DESCRIPTIONS OF PRODUCTS EVALUATED Protective Water Repellents Custom Masonry Sealer - A clear, solvent-based silicone elastomer formulated to weatherproof custom masonry units, cast stone, architectural concrete block, precast concrete, wood, and porous masonry. Custom Masonry Sealer penetrates and fills pores to prevent water penetration through exterior walls expose to normal weathering. Weather Seal Siloxane PD A ready-to-use, water-based silane/siloxane water repellent for concrete, GFRC, and most masonry and stucco surfaces. Siloxane PD penetrates more deeply than conventional water repellents. It helps masonry resist cracking, spalling, staining, and other damage related to water intrusion. Low odor and alkaline stable, Siloxane PD is ideal for field and in-plant application. Weather Seal Siloxane WB Concentrate A self-emulsifying water-repellent concentrate designed for dilution with fresh water at the job site. This solvent-free blend of silanes and oligomeric alkoxysiloxanes mixes easily with water to produce a penetrating water-repellent ideal for application to dense or porous masonry surfaces. TEST METHODS Protective Water Repellents Water Absorption Tube Test: RILEM II.4, 60 mph, 20 Minutes The water absorption tube test simulating wind driven rain conditions was performed.

18 PROSOCO, Inc. Page 18 SECTION D STAIN RESISTANCE DESCRIPTION OF PRODUCTS EVALUATED These trials were conducted to determine the effectiveness of treatments in preventing food, oil, and miscellaneous staining on the submitted samples. Products Evaluated for Stain Protection: * Stand Off Stone, Tile & Masonry Protector A penetrating oil and stain repellent. Easy-to-use. Low-VOC, lowodor protective treatment improves the stain resistance and simplifies maintenance cleaning of interior and exterior stone, quarry tile, concrete and masonry surfaces. Stand Off Impregnator Combines water and oil repellency on most substrates to prevent staining by waterborne and oily substances. This modified special system offers invisible protection and low volatility. The small molecular structure of Impregnator lets it penetrate and chemically bond deep within the substrate to provide long-lasting protection against water- and oil-related staining and deterioration. Stand Off SLX100 Water & Repellent - Combines water and oil repellency on most substrates to prevent staining by waterborne and oily substances. This modified neat silane system offers invisible protection and low volatility. The small molecular structure of SLX100 allows for maximum penetration at coverage rates higher than that of conventional silanes. Depth of penetration is controlled by the application rate (loading rate). This makes SLX100 ideal for protecting granite and other dense, color-sensitive surfaces. Kitchen Products Evaluated: wine Soy Sauce Temperature: ambient (~70 F) ambient (~70 F) ambient (~70 F) ambient (~70 F) ambient (~70 F) ambient (~70 F) ambient (~70 F) ambient (~250 F) ambient (~120 F) SAMPLE PREPARATION Stain Resistance Samples were cleaned with Enviro Klean 2010 All Surface Cleaner diluted with 10 parts water, allowed to dry and absorb atmospheric moisture for 24 hours prior to treatment. The method of application for protective treatments consisted of a wet-on-wet saturating brush application. Samples were allowed to cure for at least 1 week prior to testing.
19 PROSOCO, Inc. Page 19 TEST METHOD Stain Resistance Surface Beading Evaluation The food and oil products were applied to the test areas by using a dropper creating a bead cm in diameter. The beading properties of the oils and liquids were visually evaluated within two minutes after application. The results are reported as a rating based on the angle of contact between the base of the droplet and the substrate. A rating of 1 or 2 indicated the smallest angle of contact (<90 ) which correlates to above average repellency. A rating of 3 or 4 indicates average repellency. A rating of 5 or greater indicated that the oil quickly absorbed into the substrate and correlates to below average repellency. Note: Non-free flowing staining agents such as ketchup and mustard are applied in a blob and not evaluated for their beading properties. Rating System (1-5) 1. No wetting of contact area (no darkening); angle less than 90 o 2. Wetting contained to the contact area (slight darkening); angle is less than 90 o 3. Wetting contained to the contact area (slight darkening); angle is greater than 90 o, but less than 135 o. 4. Wetting beyond the contact area (darkening); angle is greater than 135 o 5. Wetting beyond the contact area (darkening); angle is flat. Stain Removal Evaluation The soiling agents were allowed to dwell on the treated and untreated substrates for times of 24 hours, 4 hours, 1 hour, and 10 minutes. The test areas were then cleaned with Enviro Klean 2010 All Surface Cleaner diluted 1 part concentrate to 10 parts fresh water and scrubbed under a stream of running water from a faucet. Samples were allowed to dry for 24 hours. Evaluation consisted of a visual examination of the tested areas to determine the percentage of staining removal.

28 PROSOCO, Inc. Page 28 CONCLUSIONS Stain Resistance Based upon laboratory evaluations, Stand Off Stone, Tile, and Masonry Protector was an effective treatment in repelling the staining agents on most of the blocks. However, Stand Off SLX100 Water & Repellent performed better on two of the cast-stones. Both treatments improved the ability of the cast-stones to repel water. RECOMMENDATIONS Stain Resistance Recommendations for stain resistance treatment for each type of cast-stone submitted by Liberty Classic Stone, Whitney, TX are provided in the charts below. Recommendations are based on the treatments that proved most effective for providing stain repellency on all types submitted.
