NANOPRO Impregnation for facade tiles

Instructions for use of NANOPRO Impregnation Impregnation for facade tiles

1. Application temperature:
   • Apply the impregnation at a temperature above 5°C.
2. Preparation for impregnation:
   • Make sure the plaster is clean and completely dry. If the facade is dirty, use the preparation Specialchem ​​FACADE CLEAN to cleanse it.
3. Selecting an application tool:
   • Garden sprinkler – best for large surfaces.
   • HVLP paint spray gun – ensures precise application.
   • Brush or roller – ideal for smaller surfaces and details.
4. Surroundings security:
   • Cover glass and metal surfaces with foil.
   • If dirty, clean these surfaces immediately.
5. Surface preparation:
   • Remove any dirt and remnants of other preparations.
6. Impregnation application:
   • Prepare the preparation: shake the container thoroughly before use.
   • Use the product: use without dilution.
   • Apply impregnation: spread it evenly on the plaster surface, wetting it slightly to avoid streaks.
   • Apply one or two coats using the wet-on-wet technique.
7. After application:
   • Allow the surface to dry for approximately 3 hours.
   • Check the effectiveness of the impregnation by performing a water drop test – a properly impregnated surface will repel water, which will bead on it.

Following the above instructions will ensure maximum durability of the impregnation and optimal protection of the building facade.

FAQ – NANOPRO Impregnation for facade tiles

1. What surfaces can NANOPRO Impregnation for facade tiles be used on?
   NANOPRO impregnation is designed to protect various facade tiles: ceramic, clinker, gypsum, concrete, mineral and natural stone.
2. Does the impregnation change the color or gloss of the tiles?
   Not, NANOPRO Impregnationis a colorless preparation – it preserves the natural color and structure of the material, without causing darkening or gloss.
3. How does NANOPRO hydrophobic protection work?
   The product creates an invisible, breathable nano-coating on the surface that effectively repels water and dirt. Water droplets don't soak into the tiles, but instead roll off freely, taking dirt with them.
4. Does the impregnation protect against frost and UV radiation?
   Yes, NANOPRO for facade tilesprotects against frost, UV rays and temperature fluctuations, so the tiles do not erode or discolour.
5. How to prepare the surface before impregnation?
   The tiles must be clean and dry. If dirty, we recommend using a cleaning agent such as Specialchem ​​FASADA CLEAN.
6. What tools are best to use for applications?
   For impregnation, you can use a garden sprinkler (large surfaces), an HVLP paint gun (precise application) or a roller/brush (small surfaces, details).
7. Should the product be diluted?
   No, NANOPRO impregnation is used without dilution.
8. How many layers of impregnation should be applied?
   One layer is enough.
9. How long does it take for the impregnation to dry after application?
   Average drying time is approximately 3 hours, depending on weather conditions.
10. How to check the effectiveness of impregnation?
    You can perform a water drop test – on a properly impregnated surface, water will bead and flow freely.
11. What is the efficiency of NANOPRO Impregnation?
    Average consumption is 40–60 ml/m². This means that 1 liter covers 16,7–25 m², 5 liters covers 83–125 m², and 10 liters covers 166–250 m².
12. How long does the impregnation effect last?
    The protection is durable and lasts for many years (up to 7 years) – depending on weather conditions and the level of surface exposure.
13. Does NANOPRO protect against the formation of mold and moss?
    Yes, the hydrophobic coating limits the growth of microorganisms, mosses and lichens, maintaining the aesthetics of the facade.
14. Does impregnation improve the frost resistance of tiles?
    Yes, by blocking the penetration of moisture into the interior of the material, the impregnation significantly increases its frost resistance.
15. Does the product affect the thermal insulation properties of the facade?
    Yes, dry tiles insulate better, so impregnation improves the thermal insulation properties of the building.
16. Can NANOPRO Impregnation be used indoors?
    Yes, the impregnation is safe, odorless and non-flammable, so it can also be used on interior tiles, e.g. in garages, basements or corridors.
17. Is the impregnation suitable for use on vertical and horizontal surfaces?
    Yes, the preparation can be used both on facades and on horizontal surfaces, e.g. terraces or plinths.
18. What are the economic benefits of using impregnation?
    NANOPRO reduces cleaning and repair costs, increases the durability of tiles and reduces the need for frequent facade renovations.
19. Is the impregnation visible?
    No – the impregnation is completely transparent and does not change the appearance of the surface.
20. How often should the impregnation be renewed?
    To maintain full protection, it is recommended to re-impregnate every few years, according to the manufacturer's recommendations and depending on the level of exposure of the surface to atmospheric factors.
