A water-based siloxane and silane sealer for walls and architectural concrete that deepens the colour of the material. It strongly lowers water uptake and leaves the pores open.
Surface
Concrete and floors
The surface the manufacturer intends this preparation for.
VB-2 is the concrete-wall version with a wet-look finish. It lowers water uptake more strongly than VB-1 and permanently deepens the colour of the concrete.
On a wall that has a consequence worth remembering: the effect covers the whole sealed area, and the boundary between a sealed section and a raw one will show. A wall is sealed in one go, not in sections with gaps between them.
A multi-component siloxane and silane product, water-based, alkali and UV resistant, meeting the requirements of PN-EN 1504-2 tab. 3.
Concrete accepts a sealer only when it is dry, clean and seasoned. A fresh slab is still giving off mix water and will push any coating off with it.
A new floor and fresh precast units have to season. Manufacturers give that period on the data sheet; for precast concrete it is usually around 28 days.
Before sealing the whole area, test on a patch hidden by a planter or in a corner of the patio. The same product can read differently on two batches of the same material, and on a surface with old coating left on it, it will not bond at all.
Products that form a polymer layer bind the loose particles on the surface, and manufacturers describe them as dust-free. That is not a substitute for a hardener where the concrete itself is dusting because it was poorly floated - the problem is then in the slab, not on it.
Yes, if the technical data lists indoor use. With solvent-based products you have to ventilate during application and for the period the manufacturer states.
Remove them before sealing, with an oil stain remover. A sealer applied over a stain seals it in and fixes it - oil will not evaporate through a sealed layer.
It limits the ingress of water and the salts dissolved in it. How far that goes depends on the product, and we quote it from the manufacturer's data sheet rather than generalising.
Composition and finish. The -1 versions are single-component, based on siloxanes alone, and dry colourless. The -2 versions are multi-component - siloxanes with modified silanes - and give a lasting wet-look finish. Both meet PN-EN 1504-2 tab. 3 and both leave the pores open.
The manufacturer of this range publishes no coverage in square metres per litre, because the product is applied to saturation and the absorbency of the material decides consumption entirely. The practical method: seal one square metre, measure what it took, and multiply by your area with some margin.
The manufacturer states 5-6 hours. During that time the freshly sealed surface also has to be kept out of direct sun.
The technical sheet and safety data sheet will be available after approval.
This product has no stated coverage yet, so we cannot work out the requirement.
The manufacturer publishes no coverage figure for this range. The sealer is applied to saturation in one heavier coat, repeated wet-on-wet on absorbent material.
The calculator starts once the manufacturer states the coverage.
An impregnation will not bond to a surface with anything left on it. This is the most common cause of complaints.
