Technical Information Max Impregnation Natural Look Sealer Permanent Protective Impregnation Product Description: Max Impregnation is a state of the art product which uses a high quality Silane technology, to produces a permanent protective impregnation. This easy to apply, environmentally friendly, non-yellowing impregnation is designed for interior and exterior applications. Advantages: - Permanent Protection against oil, grease and chemicals - allows substrate to breathe - fast drying - water repellent - easy to clean - self cleaning properties - microbial growth retarding - no change in substrate colour * - UV resistant * when following application proceedure Application on: concrete brick / clinker unglazed tiles sand limestone some natural stones such as granite and marble mineral plaster Product Characteristics: Active Ingredients: Proprietary Silane technology Colour: clear Active ingredient : 8 – 10% Touch dry: 2 – 60 mins Density: 1.03 Odour: none Application Procedure Step 1: The surface of the facade or floor to be impregnated must be clean and dry. All dirt and other substances, such as stains, algae, and moss must be thoroughly removed. Any water absorbed by the surface during the cleaning process itself must dry thoroughly before application. Cracks, gaps, and flawed joints must be properly repaired. Freshly applied repair mortar should be allowed to cure so that the surface is dry. Adjacent surfaces, such as windows, painted or unpainted surfaces, glass, plants, and soil, that are not supposed to come into contact with the product should be covered with appropriate materials (e.g., plastic sheeting) to protect them from spray and run off. Step 2: Apply Max Impregnation in undiluted or diluted form (depending on the required properties) using either a good quality pump up garden sprayer or HVLP (High Volume Low Pressure) Because of their low atomizing pressure of no more than 0.7 bar/ 10 psi, these reduced overspray high performance guns produce far less spray mist with a high material ejection rate. The low internal nozzle pressure reduces the rebound of paint droplets from the object and hence the proportion of overspray. HVLP high performance spray guns produce a fine, soft, and homogeneous spray that permits a broad and uniform material application. Max Impregnation is particularly easy to handle with nozzle sizes 1.3 mm to 1.5 mm. The product may also be applied using a roller, lambs wool applicator, wallbrush or paintbrush. The first application should be carried out from bottom to top to prevent runoff due to pre-impregnation and in one stroke to prevent overlapping. Large drops should be rubbed away with a brush. The water repellent effect will develop within a few minutes. Step 3: Additional applications are required to provide permanent protection. The surface must dry completely between coats. The time required for drying is a function of weather conditions and the type of construction material. Moist spots can be painted over without any problem, provided that they are small. HVLP systems are also the best way to apply subsequent coats of the product. A fine coating of liquid droplets will form on the surface. This must be rubbed in with a large brush as quickly as possible before the droplets can dry. Care must be taken to ensure that the coating is distributed uniformly (i.e. that the surface is uniformly wetted, the surface should appear bright and wet). The next coat can be applied as soon as the surface of the preceding coat has dried. The drying times required vary between 10 minutes and one hour depending on the weather.
