OPTIMIZED TO PROVIDE SUPERIOR PROTECTION FOR MASONRY, INCLUDING BRICK, CONCRETE, NATURAL STONE AND TERRACOTTA.

S-TECH 40M™ is a fully breathable, modified silane impregnator which penetrates deeply and provides superior water repellent. S-TECH 100M™ is optimized to bond efficiently inside a wide variety of masonry, including all types of natural stone, cast stone, brick, terracotta, concrete and grout. S-TECH 40M™ is designed to maintain the condition and maximize the life of masonry against common forms of damage caused by the ingress of water and salts, including: Efflorescence and leaching of other water soluble minerals, freeze-thaw / salt spalling and picture framing. It also keeps surfaces looking good for longer and makes them easier to clean and maintain.
