HG Protective Coating Gloss Finish

الوصف

HG natural stone protective coating gloss finish (shine finish) (HG product 33) is an easily applicable liquid polymer emulsion that forms a glossy, super-thin yet extremely strong and protective film when dry. This protects the top layer of the natural stone against wear and damage by acids such as soft drinks and wine. This protective film also has an anti-slip effect. Dilute the liquid 1:1 with cold water, then pour the liquid over the floor apply and the liquid floor and the liquid evenly in one direction using A waxer or roller. After about 40 minutes, a second layer can be applied crosswise onto the first layer. One litre is enough for 60 to 80 m2 of floor area. This product is also available in a matt version. Review: Pleasantly surprised at how easy it is - When I moved in with my husband the floor was in quite a state, I don’t think it had been sealed for many years & definitely never while he had owned the house (it was completely matte in 90% of areas) and no amount of cleaning made it look clean (1st photo was taken before I lived here, when husband had put the house up for sale). I did a lot of research into companies who would come & sort it out professionally & because the kitchen is so big I was looking at a minimum £800. In a dream world I’d have it ripped up & replaced with something nice (I really don’t like slate floors if I’m honest) but that was an insane cost. In the meantime I’ve scrubbed & mopped used every cleaning product known to man & I got it looking a lot cleaner, even the grout which I had thought was dark grey turned out to be off white, however where the slate was essentially ‘raw’ it was never really clean - I could mop repeatedly & the water never really ran clear. Parts of it would crumble & break off where it wasn’t treated too, it always looked dusty the minute it was dry. This year I purchased a cream rug for the living room & it kept getting filthy & I couldn’t understand why - until I realised walking through the kitchen, even if just cleaned that day, was bringing dust & traces of dirt which were getting trodden into the rug. So with rug rolled up & in the loft for now I decided to tackle the floor on my own, I don’t have the money for a professional. I bought the pre-cleaning stuff first & to be honest the floor was already clean from repeated scrubbing but i felt it helped to ensure there was nothing left at all, I didn’t want to put a gloss coat over dirt after all & I’m glad I didn’t skip this step. I’ve done 2 very thin coats & plan to do another 2 over the course of the weekend. I have pitted slate & smooth slate so I’ve used a paintbrush, a roller, then smoothed it over with a micro fibre cloth and already after 2 coats I think it’s improved a lot. The big advantage will be if anything gets dropped it won’t stain - on the raw slate everything stained, I can tell already how much less time I will need to spend on keeping this awful floor clean. I might even grow to like the floor as it gets more shiny. I would say don’t rush it, I did the right side first to be able to use the left side & then did the second coat in one go before I went to bed, and I’m doing the 3rd & 4th coats across two days. I was a bit heavier handed on the right side with the 1st coat which you can tell, so will have to be careful on the 3rd & 4th coats to try & blend this in, I’m sure that will be fairly easy. Review: Funciona - Lo quería mi padre para unas losas en las que con el pie mojado te resbalaba, después de dos capas ya no ocurre eso y le sobró producto.
