CrownSaver Crown Repair Coating

CrownSaver is the original crown repair product, developed in the early 80's. It has been time tested and is still preferred by many sweeps. CrownSaver is a blend of polymer modified hydraulic cements and powdered water repellent. For best results, cover the crown with FormFoil. Then, simply mix one scoop CrownSaver (measuring scoop included) with three scoops fine mason's sand and water. Next, trowel over the crown at about 1/2" thickness (1/3" min.-2" max). Because CrownSaver is a cement-based coating, a 1/2" bead of caulk should be applied to the base of each flue tile to allow for expansion. CrownSaver is sold in a 30 lb. container. One pail covers about 30 sq. ft at 1/2" thickness, when properly mixed - about 3 to 5 average chimney crowns.

CrownSaver can be used alone or with the FormFoil. No forms are needed and CrownSaver sets up in just two hours. Since the waterproofing elements are contained in the coating, no need to apply waterproofing. You also get a 10 year warranty against cracks caused by shrinkage.
