A method of restoring a material surface utilizes a first composition (referred to herein as Composition A) and a second composition (referred to herein as Composition B). Methodologies guide application of Composition A and optionally Composition B to enact various restoration advantages to existing or new material surfaces. Composition A may be first applied to a material surface to remove surface contaminants and lift stains. During the described methodology, a user must wait a predetermined amount of time for Composition A to permeate the material surface. Optionally, Composition B may be subsequently applied to bond voids and damages areas of the material surface, or to add a new surface altogether above the original surface. A user may wait a predetermined amount of time for Composition B to cure.

This disclosure relates to compositions including a poly-alkene maleic anhydride copolymer, a PEG, and a crosslinker selected from an ethyleneamine, a benzenetricarboxylic acid, a benzimidazole, and combinations thereof. The poly-alkene maleic anhydride copolymer includes repeat units I and II:

where R.sup.1, R.sup.1′, R.sup.2, and R.sup.2′ are each independently selected from —H and —(C.sub.1-C.sub.5)alkyl. The disclosure also provides methods of treating a subterranean formation or cement construction using the compositions.

Mat-faced cementitious board including: (a) a cementitious core; (b) a fibrous mat having an inner first surface facing at least one face of the cementitious core, and an outer second surface, wherein the inner first surface and the outer second surface are opposed; (c) a hydrophobic, non-setting coating resulting from applying to the outer second surface of the fibrous mat a layer of hydrophobic finish composition including: (i) about 50 to about 80 weight % non-setting, inorganic filler having a mean particle diameter of about 12 microns to about 35 microns, (ii) about 20% to about 50 weight % an aqueous dispersion of a film-forming polymer, (iii) 0% to about 30 weight % additional water; (iv) an absence of fly ash, (v) an absence of pozzolanic material, (vi) an absence of hydraulic cement, (vii) an absence of calcium sulfate hemihydrate, and (viii) an absence of calcium sulfate anhydrite.

In general, the present invention is directed to a building panel, such as a gypsum board, comprising a core having a first side and a second side opposing the first side and at least one facing material having a coating comprising at least one fungicide, at least one polymeric binder, and at least one pigment. The panel satisfies at least one of the following: the board exhibits a rating of 2 or less when tested in accordance to ASTM G21-15 or the board exhibits a rating of at least 8 when tested in accordance to ASTM D3273-16. The panel may also exhibit at least a Level 3 finish.

A coating composition for application to a substrate includes a polymer matrix and a mineral aggregate substantially free of crystalline silica. The mineral aggregate is utilized as a partial or complete replacement for aggregate containing free respirable crystalline silica traditionally included in anti-slip or anti-skid coating compositions. Methods of making the coating and coating a substrate with the coating composition to provide a slip- or skid-resistant coating on a surface of a substrate are also disclosed.
