Signo Flexiguard is a stain-resistant formula specifically designed
to coat porous silicate substrates, such as stone, concrete, terracotta
and clay. Once applied, a protective layer less than 100-nm thick
(80,000 times thinner than a human hair) bonds with inner pores
of the substrate to leave a smooth, anti-stain, non-discolouring
surface layer.
The coating is optically clear, UV stable, chemically inert and
extremely durable, having both hydrophobic and oleophobic capabilities.
It will not peel or flake and is unaffected by extremes of temperatures
from –20°C to +350°C.
Signo Flexiguard offers protection against:
- Embedded and ingrained soiling, mould or fungal growth
- Abrasion and frost damage
- Chemical attack, including oxide corrosion by acid
rainwater, damage by alkaline run-off from construction
materials such as
cement, concrete and plaster, and from fat, grease
and oil products
- Corrosion by salt and other climatic coastal and
marine conditions.
