What is the best way to make natural stone water-repellent?
How can natural stone be protected against moisture and water penetration?
Natural stone, such as marble, granite, and slate, is a durable and attractive material often used for flooring, countertops, and cladding. Despite its robust appearance, natural stone is porous and can be susceptible to moisture and water penetration. This can lead to staining, discoloration, and even structural damage if not properly protected. Moisture can penetrate deep into the pores of the stone, making the surface difficult to clean and shortening the stone's lifespan. It is therefore crucial to use an appropriate treatment that makes the stone water-repellent without altering its natural appearance.
Lithofin MN Colour Intensifier makes the surface water-repellent, increasing the stone's resistance to moisture and water.
Lithofin MN Colour Intensifier is an effective way to protect natural stone against water and moisture. This impregnator penetrates deep into the stone's pores and forms an invisible, water-repellent layer. This significantly reduces the ingress of water and moisture into the stone, helping to prevent stains and damage caused by frost or weathering. At the same time, it enhances the stone's natural color, preserving the surface's vibrancy. Lithofin MN Colour Intensifier is suitable for various types of natural stone, such as granite, slate, sandstone, and limestone, and can be applied both indoors and outdoors. The product is easy to apply with a roller, brush, or paintbrush, and it dries completely within 24 hours. One liter of Lithofin MN Colour Intensifier is sufficient to treat 7 to 15 m², depending on the absorbency of the surface. This treatment increases the resistance of natural stone to moisture and water, preserving the durability and beauty of the material.
