Hydrophobic impregnations are specialized products that protect surfaces from moisture and water. These products contain silicones, which repel water and dirt, ensuring the impregnated surface remains clean for a long time. They also prevent rust and moisture from forming on the surface.
Impregnation is an easy and cheap way to provide substrates with hydrophobic properties.
How to use hydrophobic impregnation?
Impregnators should be applied to porous, unpainted surfaces so they can penetrate deeply into the surface. General guidelines for applying impregnators may vary, depending on the type of surface to which the product is to be applied and the formulation. However, there are a few important rules to follow when using these products.
Be sure to properly prepare the surface by cleaning it of dust, sand, and other contaminants with appropriate detergents or cleaning agents. Remember that the surface should be completely dry before applying the product, and always apply the impregnation according to the manufacturer's instructions! For spray products, apply an even layer at the appropriate distance from the surface. When using liquid or gel products, apply the hydrophobic impregnation with a brush, roller, or sponge, working in sections to avoid streaks and smudges.
Impregnators should not be used on surfaces that we want to paint in the future - this will not be possible for 3 to 6 years!
Application of hydrophobic impregnations
Thanks to their properties, hydrophobic impregnations are used in many fields and industries. They extend the life of materials and ensure the aesthetic appearance of surfaces for many years.
Impregnators are often used in construction, protecting surfaces such as concrete, plaster, brick, stone, and roof tiles. They provide protection against water absorption, weathering, and the growth of fungi and mold.
Impregnation products are also perfect for protecting fabrics and clothing, wood, metals, glass and ceramics.
