Uses
One Coat Waterseal by Thompson's offers excellent benefits for your brickwork, concrete or stone surface. It has a unique formula created from water-based, alkyl polysiloxane resin, delivering optimal substrate penetration. After application, water cannot damage the surface, and the resin combats the water, preventing it from seeping in and causing damage. The substrates you can apply this product include;
- Stone
- Concrete
- Brick
Preparation
Prepare the surface by brushing it with a stiff bristle brush, and any crack must be filled. Also, complete any pointing repairs required.
Application
- Give the tin a thorough shake.
- Apply using a brush or roller.
- Apply directly to the surface, and work from the bottom upwards if it is a vertical wall. Ensure you work in 1-metre sections to cover the area entirely.
- Ensure you coat the full area, mortar lines, and isolated areas, not just the walls.
