Product Features

 

Siloxane is the crystal structure that forms to subtract all the efflorescence and damp in thesubstrate. Siloxane treated surfaces “breath” so they do not trap moisture. Appropriate formanufactured stone surfaces.

 

Silane is the sealer and creates a barrier to prevent water from seeping through. It is also effective inpreventing corrosion and damage caused by moisture.

 

DampGuard develops its water-repellent properties by reacting with atmospheric carbon dioxide(CO2). The active substance that forms the alkaline masonry water repellent is polymethyl silicicacid. DampGuard is an aqueous of potassium methyl system and is suitable for imparting waterrepellency to absorbent and porous mineral construction materials.
