Lithofin SPLASH STOP is a universally usable impregnator based on water-repelling siloxane compounds. The product contains solvents and has a low viscosity.
Technical Data:
Density: ca.0,8 g/cm³
pH-Value: n.a.
Appearance: liquid, clear
Odour: aromatic
Flash Point: >23°C
Solubility in water: not soluble
Properties:
Lithofin SPLASH-STOP penetrates into porous surfaces and forms a thin coat inside the capillaries. This coat prevents the penetration of water and dirt, forcing it to remain on the surface. Surfaces stay clean longer and become easier to maintain. The water permeability is hardly affected. The appearance of the surface is not, or only slightly, altered. Lithofin SPLASH-STOP is UV-resistant and does not yellow.
Durability:
Outdoors, depending on weather conditions, approx. five to ten years. Indoors, with correct maintenance, nearly unlimited.
Field of Use:
For rendering facades and other surfaces made from natural stone (e.g. sandstone, granite, limestone) and quarry tiles, engineered stone and concrete water and dirt-resistant. Suitable for indoor and outdoor use.
Directions for Use:
The surface to be treated must be absorbent, clean and completely dry. Generously apply a consistent amount of Lithofin SPLASH-STOP with a brush or roller. In the case of very absorbent materials, repeat the application after approx. 30 to 40 minutes. Avoid puddles, drips and foam. Do not allow the product to dry on the surface. Immediately distribute and remove surface residues with a cloth.
Please Note:
Always try the product in an inconspicuous area prior to use. Non-absorbent and wet surfaces cannot be treated. Glass, plastics and other solvent-sensitive surfaces must be protected against splashes. The surface temperature must be between 10°C and 25 °C. Do not use it in direct sunlight.
Drying Time: approx. 40 minutes
Coverage: Depending on the surface.
Sandstone: approx. 1 to 4m² per litre
Quarry tiles: approx. 5 to 8m² per litre
Rough granite: approx. 10 to 15m² per litre
Storage:
Keep cool, closed and dry. Shelf life of up to three years. Open containers should be used quickly.
Environmental Protection:
Contains solvents. Free of chlorinated hydrocarbons.
