Poly-Comp™ Plastic Reveal Strips (also known as rustication or drip strips) provided architecturally pleasing details for precast, tilt-up and cast-in-place concrete casts. The clean release provides a superior, consistent, ultra-smooth finish.
Common uses include:
- Creating featured details around panel joints and block-out areas as individual feature patterns.
- As a drip strip on horizontal surfaces to keep water from flowing toward the main building structure.
- In architectural applications to accent form liners, or often as replacement of form liners at a fraction of the cost.
Application is easy. For tilt-up and precast construction, Poly-Comp Reveal Strips can be applied to the casting bed with plastic-approved adhesives, double-sided tape, nylon nail-ins or silicon caulking. For cast-in-place construction, Poly-Comp can be applied to wood forms with staples, finish nails or silicone caulking, and with onto steel forms using plastic-approved spray glues or doubled-sided tape.
