Impregnating Sealers

Impregnating sealers protect various stone surfaces against both internal and external threats to their appearance and composition. 

Water Repellency 

First of all, an impregnating sealing penetrates the pores of the stone material to create a barrier against liquids. This prevents stains by ensuring unwanted substances are unable to enter the surface. This is especially useful for stone floors and countertops where staining is likely such as the bathroom or kitchen. 

An impregnator also prevents water damage by repelling lqiuids that would enter the stone over time. Typically, water is allowed to seep into stone surfaces and weaken them over time. Outdoor surfaces suffer the most because cold weather freezes this water, making it more dangerous. Use an impregnating sealer to protect your stone floors against water. 

Increased Durability

As well as protection against water, impregnators increase the stone materials durability in the face of standard wear and tear resulting from foot traffic and environmental factors. An impregnator defends surfaces from scratches, abrasions and even erosions. 

Discrete Application

Furthermore, using a stone sealer to protect your stone surfaces won't alter their appearance. By penetrating the stone, instead of creating a layer on its surface, impregnators remain invisible. Maintain the texture and aesthetic of your stone with an impregnating sealer. 

Breathability

In addition to preserving the appearance of stone surfaces, an impregnator ensures a surface remains breathable. It allows moisture vapour to leave the surface. This is important for materials like concrete and natural stone, as trapped moisture can lead to issues such as efflorescence and spalling.

Some stone penetrating sealers provide UV resistance, defending the material from discolouration and fading due to exposure to sunlight. As such, it is especially useful for outdoor surfaces like driveways, patios and pool decks. 

Easy Maintenance  

Sealed surfaces are easier to clean and maintain, as spills and stains can be wiped away more easily without penetrating the material. This can save time and effort in routine cleaning tasks.

Long-lasting Effects

Properly applied stone tile sealers can provide long-lasting protection, extending the lifespan of the surface. This also reduces the need for frequent resealing, saving your money and time in the long run.
