Reliable Protection for Natural Stone and Tiles
Ultra-Solv® by Aqua Mix® is a premium, high-performance penetrating and impregnating solvent-based sealer designed for both interior and exterior surfaces. It provides superior protection for a wide range of natural stone, tile, and grout, including those exposed to saltwater pools. With a formula designed to offer maximum stain protection, this sealer is ideal for high-traffic areas, especially food preparation zones where stain resistance is essential.
This high-quality sealer includes built-in Microban® technology, which ensures that the cured surface remains resistant to mould and mildew growth. It is perfect for dense materials like porcelain and granite and offers protection that lasts up to 15 years, making it a long-term solution for maintaining the beauty and integrity of your stone and tile surfaces.
Ultra-Solv Key Features
- Maximum Stain Protection: Provides excellent resistance against stains, especially in food preparation and serving areas.
- Natural Look: Leaves a no-sheen, natural finish that enhances the beauty of your surfaces without altering their appearance.
- Moisture Vapour Transmission: Allows moisture vapour to escape, preserving the material underneath.
- Slip Resistance: Does not alter the natural slip resistance of sealed surfaces.
- Weather Resistance: Excellent durability against weathering, making it ideal for both interior and exterior use.
- Built-in Microban®: The formula includes Microban® to help prevent mould and mildew growth on sealed surfaces.
- Solvent-Based: Effectively penetrates even the densest materials, providing long-lasting protection.
- Long-Lasting: Offers protection for up to 15 years, making it an investment in your surfaces' longevity.
Perfect for These Surfaces
Ultra-Solv® is versatile and can be used on a variety of surfaces, including:
- Natural Stone: Sandstone, slate, marble, limestone, granite, bluestone/basalt
- Unglazed Tiles: Porcelain, clay pavers, concrete, brick, masonry, terracotta
- Grout: Ideal for both interior and exterior applications
Limitations
- Surface Compatibility: Do not allow sealer to come into contact with non-recommended surfaces.
- Surface Discoloration: May slightly lighten or darken some stone surfaces.
- Acid and Chemical Resistance: Sealer will not prevent etching or surface wear from acids or caustic chemicals.
Preparation:
Ensure the surface is dry, clean, and free from waxes, sealers, or finishes. New installations must be completely dry (at least 24 hours) before application. Always test the product in an inconspicuous area to ensure satisfactory results. Protect surrounding surfaces from accidental spills.
Ultra-Solv Application Instructions
- Test Area First: Always apply the sealer to a small, inconspicuous area to confirm desired results.
- Application Tools: Use a pump sprayer, paint pad applicator, lambswool applicator, sponge, or brush.
- Application Method: Allow the sealer to penetrate for up to 5 minutes. If the surface begins to dry within this time, apply more sealer to keep the surface wet for the full 5 minutes. After each application, wipe the surface dry with clean, dry towels.
- Additional Applications: Porous surfaces may require multiple applications. Test after 2 hours by applying water drops. If the surface absorbs the water, apply an additional layer.
- Clean-Up: Clean tools with mineral spirits after use.
Drying Times
- Between Applications: Allow 30 minutes at 20°C (68°F) with 70% RH. Longer times may be required under different conditions.
- Traffic Ready: Minimum of 2 hours.
- Full Cure: Achieved within 24 hours, with a minimum 12-hour dry period.
