Optimize the Performance of Your Concrete Systems
Polymer-modified concrete improves on traditional concrete’s limitations—especially for thin applications prone to cracking—by significantly boosting flexibility, bonding, and durability. RhinoDecor CPL and RhinoDecor CPP are engineered as additives to transform standard cement mixtures into high-performance, polymer-modified concrete for use in a wide range of repair, resurfacing, or decorative overlay projects.
RhinoDecor Product Family Overview
The RhinoDecor product line includes specialized additives designed to enhance concrete mixes as well as chemical additives formulated for sealer systems. This guide highlights two distinct product categories: polymer concrete additives (RhinoDecor CPL and CPP) and a chemical matting agent for sealers. Understanding the differences between these products ensures appropriate selection and optimal performance for your construction or finishing project.
Which RhinoDecor Additives are right for you?
RhinoDecor CPP
ADDITIVE FOR POLYMER CONCRETE
Mix Ratio: 4.5 lbs RhinoDecor CPP + 1/2 gallon water ≈ Equivalent to 1 gallon RhinoDecor CPL
Description
RhinoDecor CPP is a pre-packaged vinyl acetate-ethylene copolymer powder intended to be combined with cement and sand for just-add-water convenience. This dry additive replaces liquid polymer, offering logistical advantages and enhancing performance characteristics such as strength, adhesion, and durability in both conventional and decorative concrete applications.
Key Features & Benefits
- Makes pre-blended dry mixes feasible and easy to handle
- Lower shipping and storage costs
- Improved workability and lower water requirements for mixes
- Prolonged shelf life
- Perfect for mortars, overlays, patching, and thin-section repairs

RhinoDecor CPL
CONCRETE POLYMER LIQUID
Mix Ratio: Varies by application. A typical bond coat formula: 1 part Polymer, 1 part Water, 2 parts Portland Cement, 2–4 parts Silica Sand (see official charts for additional ratios).
Description
Type: Additive for polymer concrete
RhinoDecor CPL is a water-based liquid resin custom-designed for blending into cement and sand mixtures. When incorporated, it provides superior flexibility, improved adhesion, and rapid cure rates. This results in finished surfaces that are tough, resilient, and adaptable for both interior and exterior environments.
Key Features & Benefits
- Exceptional bond strength to concrete, foam, wood, asphalt, and more
- Enhances compressive and flexural strengths
- Increases weather and freeze-thaw resistance
- Enables a variety of decorative finishes
- Accelerates project turnaround (no curing agent needed)

Matting Agent
ADDITIVE FOR RHINOLININGS SEALERS
(not for concrete mix)
Mix Ratios:
16 oz per gallon (matte finish)
8 oz per gallon (satin finish)
Description
The Matting Agent is formulated to reduce gloss and control the sheen of compatible RhinoLinings sealers. By adjusting the amount added, you can tailor the final surface from a high-gloss to a satin or matte finish. This is ideal for projects where reduced glare or a more subtle look is desired—without sacrificing the strength or durability of the protective sealer.
Compatible Sealers
- RhinoSeal PA
- RhinoSeal HP
- RhinoDecor SCS
- RhinoSeal WB Satin
Directions for Use
Blend the required amount of Matting Agent into the sealer and mix thoroughly before application to ensure a uniform finish. Always verify product compatibility with your specific sealer for best results.
In Summary
RhinoDecor CPL and CPP are polymer concrete additives — enhancing the performance and versatility of concrete mixes.
The Matting Agent is a chemical additive exclusively for use in sealer systems — adjusting their sheen but not for use in concrete mixtures.
Selecting the correct product ensures your surfaces look great and perform at their best.
