Densifies Weak Materials

Not sure if an Aldon product is right for you? Good! You never know if the results will be exactly what you expect until you try it on your project. Order     and eliminate the guesswork. See label reproduction below for application instructions.

PRODUCT CHARACTERISTICS:

Acrylic in a solvent base.

High solids content to fill porous stone and tile

Highly penetrating

Gloss can be customized from low to high

Used indoors and outdoors - does not yellow or break down

Clear in color, usually darkens and richens material colors a shade or two

For materials over 3% absorption rating at the surface. Materials of under 3% absorption rating will allow less penetration and leave more solids on the surface than is desirable. See the "Problem Solving" section on sealing if you don't know the absorption rating and can't find out from the store that sold you the material.

ITEMS OF INTEREST:

When you have grout of uneven color, you can seal the grout with Porous Stone Sealer and use its color darkening effect to "mask over" the color differences.

Used extensively on porous stone, tile and grout.

An Aldon sealer can do a lot more than just protect and look pretty. See the for addressing other benefits of using a sealer, such as: strengthening weak or powdery surfaces, making minor color problems disappear, stopping efflorescence, etc. These issues are covered in detail in

You can protect a glossy finish sealer from traffic wear patterns by using Aldon Lifeguard. However, if you do not use "Lifeguard", the sealer is very easy to touch up. New "Porous Stone Sealer" applied on top of old "Porous Stone Sealer" will melt the old sealer and all will bond together.

See the product label reproduction below for all the information on surface preparation, application technique, drying time, etc. This label reproduction will always be the most current. Because we are constantly improving information and passing on tips from users, this could be more up to date than the label on the container.

TROUBLESHOOTING:

If you do not see the results you expect:

It is not a problem with the product! (They all do what we say they do!)

Your conditions may have been misdiagnosed! (It can happen, even with all the information we provide.)

The surface conditions (absorption rate, contaminents, temperatures, etc.) are other than thought.

And/or - it was not applied per label instructions! (The instructions are designed to overcome items 1 and 2 above, and overcome job conditions of which you might not be aware.)

When you read all the health and safety warnings, you will see we have done our best to make you think about working with any chemicals from any manufacturer. Even household cleaners purchased in supermarkets (many with more hazardous ingredients than we use due to cost factors) should be used with common sense and awareness. People have been injured by not knowing you can create poisonous gases by mixing chlorine bleach with some cleaning products. One of the many criteria involved in Aldon products is that all our products will be used with any other of our products and no normal combination of usage events should be hazardous. Nevertheless, use common sense and don't be in a hurry. Let each step prove itself satisfactorily before proceeding to the next.
