Reduces slipperiness on ceramic and porcelain tile floors - the effect lasts 6 to 24 months (manufacturer's data). With a pH of 3, test it on a section of floor before treatment; one litre covers 4-6 m².
Concrete and floorsR-9C improves the grip of ceramic and porcelain tiles - floors where water or grease turn a smooth surface into a hazard.
It covers 4-6 m² per litre and gives an anti-slip effect that, according to the manufacturer, lasts 6 to 24 months.
R-9C has a pH of 3 and is ready to use, with no dilution needed. Before treating the whole floor, test it on a small section.
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 need time to season - 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.
Yes, if you choose a product that forms a polymer layer - it binds the loose particles on the surface and gives a dust-free finish. It 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 - choose a product approved for indoor use. With a solvent-based one, ventilate during application and for the period given in the product instructions.
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 helps - it limits the ingress of water and the salts dissolved in it.
By material. R-9C is for ceramic and porcelain tiles, R-9G for granite and gneiss tiles. They also differ in pH (3 against 3.5) and coverage (4-6 against 5-8 m²/l).
On high-gloss tiles it can - the product acts on the surface of the glaze, so the difference may show. Judge the result on an inconspicuous section, ideally under furniture or in a corner, before treating the whole floor.
When the floor becomes slippery again once wet. The effect lasts 6 to 24 months (manufacturer's data), and how long it holds on your floor depends on foot traffic and how it is cleaned.
