Product description: SILRES® BS 38 is a solvent-based mixture of silane, siloxane and fluoropolymer (< C8). In diluted form, it serves to render inorganic substrates such as mineral construction materials water-repellent and oil-repellent. Unlike conventional impregnating agents, which display only a hydrophobic, i. e. water-repellent, effect, SILRES® BS 38 also exhibits an oleophobic, i. e. oilrepellent, effect. The pores of the substrate remain open, the water vapour diffusion is hardly affected, if at all. Oil, grease and paint, etc. can be more easily removed from surfaces that have been treated with SILRES® BS 38. Application: - Treatment of facades of natural or synthetic stone, concrete, or fibrous cement in order to allow easier removal of dirt, grease, graffiti, posters, etc. from monuments, exterior and interior walls.
- Water, oil and dirt repellent treatment of low-porosity natural stone, e. g. marble, travertine and granite.
- Treatment of floors of natural or synthetic stone, or unglazed ceramic tiles for easy care.
- Treatment of window sills and table tops of natural or synthetic stone, or fibrous cement to avoid staining.
