Specialchem ​​Split granite – protection of split granite

Colorless impregnation for hydrophobic protection of all types of granite except polished. It is perfect for split paving stones, steps, palisades, fences, walls, garden architecture and facades. It protects the entire structure of the stone at the nanometer level, protecting it from dirt, algae and moss growth, water and moisture penetration, and the formation of dirt and stains. In winter, it protects granite against erosion caused by freezing of water inside the stone. It does not change the slipperiness of the surface and does not grease it. It does not change the natural vapor permeability of granite. Impregnation resistant to the negative effects of external factors, including UV radiation. It improves durability and strengthens the structure of the stone. The product does not change the natural appearance of the stone.

Impregnation durability:

about 5 years

Product application:

Preparation for the protection of all types of granite, such as: granite cobblestones, fences, walls, floors, facades, objects such as monuments, etc.

FAQ – SPECIALCHEM Impregnation for Split Granite

1. What type of granite is the sealer intended for?
   This product is intended for use on split and raw (unpolished) granite. It should not be used on polished surfaces.
2. Does the sealer change the color or shine of the stone?
   No – the product does not create a coating, does not cause shine or change the natural appearance of granite.
3. How long does impregnation last?
   The durability of protection is up to 5 years, depending on the conditions of use and exposure of the stone.
4. Will the impregnation work on granite paving stones?
   Yes, this is one of the main applications – especially on split granite paving stones exposed to water, salt and dirt.
5. Does the product protect against mosses and lichens?
   Yes – the impregnation creates a protective layer that hinders the growth of mosses, algae and algae on the stone surface.
6. What is the impregnation consumption per 1 m²?
   On average 80–100 ml per m², depending on the absorbency of the stone and the method of application.
7. What packaging is available?
   The impregnation is available in the following capacities: 2 L, 5 L and 10 L.
8. How many surfaces can I protect with one package?

• 2 L is enough for 20–25 m²,
• 5 L for 50–62,5 m²,
• 10 L per 100–125 m².

9. How to prepare the surface before impregnation?
   The stone must be clean and dry. All dirt, moss, algae, efflorescence, and grease stains must be removed.
10. What is the best method to apply the impregnation?

• garden sprayer (large areas),
• roller (medium surfaces),
• brush (details, edges).

11. How many layers of impregnation should be applied?
    One even layer is enough.
12. What to do with excess preparation?
    Any excess should be spread with a roller or removed with a cloth to avoid leaving streaks.
13. How long does it take for the impregnation to dry?
    Drying time is approximately 1 hour in dry conditions.
14. How long does it take for the impregnation to become fully effective?
    The full hydrophobic effect is achieved after approximately 12 hours.
15. Does the impregnation protect against road salt and chemicals?
    Yes – it is resistant to salt, detergents and other chemicals.
16. Can it be used indoors?
    Yes, provided there is good ventilation during application and drying.
17. Does the impregnation change the slipperiness of the surface?
    No – it does not grease the stone or increase its slipperiness.
18. Does the preparation affect the vapor permeability of the stone?
    No – the natural vapor permeability is preserved, the stone continues to “breathe”.
19. What weather conditions are best for application?
    Dry weather, substrate temperature from +5°C to +25°C, no rainfall for at least 5 hours after application.
20. Is the impregnation safe for the environment?
    Yes – it is safe for users and the environment, in accordance with applicable standards.
