Why is pressure cleaning and sealing decorative concrete and hard surfaces the best option?
- Pressure Cleaning removes unsightly stains and slip hazards
- Pressure Cleaning dramatically improves the appearance of your concrete area and by sealing the area further improves the appearance for longer
- Sealing protects the surface from the harsh Australian climate.
- Sealing resists the marking effects of dirt, grime, salt, moss and oils.
- Sealing makes surfaces much easier to wash and clean because it seals the pores in the concrete
There are two main types of sealers we can apply to a surface after cleaning. Each of these sealers has different features, which make them suitable for particular applications.
Penetrating Sealers
Penetrating sealers penetrate the surface and provide a natural look and are easier to apply.
Penetrating sealers (in contrast to TopicalSealers) do not create a coating and so aregood for surfaces where being no-slip and having a natural look may be important.
Penetrating sealers are commonly used on surfaces such as clay pavers, concrete pavers, terracotta, sandstone, granite, limestone, natural stone, porous tiles, marble, pedestrian and public areas where staining may be an issue.
Topical Sealers
Topical sealers are the most widely used and preferred coating in the concrete industry. They are UV resistant, relatively easy to apply, can be applied soon after concrete installation, are economically priced and have excellent recoating abilities.
Topical sealers are commonly used on areas such as exposed aggregate, full depth coloured concrete, stencil concrete, pattern concrete and style paves resurfacing systems.
Will leave the surface looking glossy but if not stippled may make it slippery
Carriers
There are two main carriers that are used to transfer the sealer to the surface, water based, and spirit based
Water based sealers are great for that first seal and have very little or no smell and are great for porous surfaces.
When resealing or sealing a nonporous surface, the need for a spirit based sealer is then required as it can penetrate easer but will have a stone odor.
