TEST FIRST
Due to the nature of different surfaces, you should do several
tests in inconspicuous areas according to the label instructions
to determine application method, number of coats and desired
results. The end user must determine the suitability of the
product for their intended use.
PRE-GROUT SEALING
This will allow quick and easy cleanup after grouting as grout

3. Wear appropriate skin and eye protection and use in a well
ventilated area;
4. Surface must be clean and completely dry and free from any
other sealers and coatings;
5. Use when surface temperature is between 4°C and 32°C;
6. Once a surface has been enhanced, it cannot be restored to
original look.
INSTRUCTIONS
