Product Code: 29846

This ready-to-use special impregnator is water based and nearly odourless. Highly active water and oil repellent polymers ensure that this easy to apply treatment offers optimal results. Lithofin MN Stain-Stop >ECO< provides the ultimate protection against water and oil stains and facilitates every-day maintenance.\nTechnical Data:Density: approx. 1.0 g/cm? pH-Value: approx. 8Appearance: clear, yellowish, liquidOdour: nearly odourless Flash Point: n.a.\nProperties:Lithofin MN Stain-Stop >ECO< penetrates into absorbent natural stone surfaces and coats the capilliaries with an extremely thin and invisible film of polymers. This film alters the surface tension of the surface, causing a repelling effect. The treatment prevents the immediate penetration of water based dirt as well as oil and grease, and it provides an effective protection against staining.\nDurability:approx. four years depending on the type and use of the treated material.\nField of Use:To protect absorbent natural stone against staining and to render surfaces water and oil repellent. Treatment is recommended for all stone surfaces, such as: floors in kitchen, dining and living areas. The surfaces can be polished, honed, or rough. Lithofin MN Stain-Stop >ECO< can be used as a grout release and as a pre-treatment. Suitable for indoor and outdoor use.\nSurfaces:Absorbent natural stones, especially suitable for rough and honed limestone, polished and honed hardstone.\nPlease Note:On siliceous stones with a rough surface (such as honed or flamed granite), dense limestone and in cases where the highest level of water repellency is required (eg. in the shower) we recommend using Lithofin MN Stain-Stop (solvent based). This also applies to surfaces that have been pre-treated with other products.\nDirections for Use:Check the suitability and effect with a test in an inconspicuous area or on a spare tile. The surface must be absorbent, completely dry, clean and free of stains. Shake bottle before use. Apply generously and evenly using a lambswool applicator, roller, lint free cloth or sponge. Ensure even distribution by wiping over several times. Ensure that all surface residues is removed within 15 min. by towelling them off, do not allow residues to dry on the surface. On highly absorbent surfaces, apply several coats wet-in-wet.\nDrying Time:Approx. 3 hours. Treatment is fully effective after 48 hours. Do not cover surface before then and wipe up any spills immediately.\nPlease Note:Some materials may appear slightly darker after treatment. If no prior product experience exists or in cases of doubt, we recommend a trial application. Immediately remove splashes on wood, glass, PVC, lacquered surfaces, etc. with a damp cloth. Clean application tools with water after use.\nApplication Temperature:The temperature of the surface to be treated should not be under 10?C and not over 25?C. Throttle or turn off floor heating.\nCoverage:Honed limestone: 4-8m? per litre, polished natural stone: up to 20m?.\nImportant Notes:In case a deep clean is required, use Lithofin MN Power-Clean diluted 1:20 and a white pad. Rinse well with plenty of water, since residues of cleaners may affect the effectiveness of the protective treatment. Impregnators do not protect the surface against acid.\nTouching up the Protective Effect:Surfaces subject to increased wear (such as surfaces in kitchen and bathroom) should be touched up at least once per year. This re-treatment can be done with Lithofin MN Stain-Stop >ECO< or with the solvent based Lithofin MN Stain-Stop. First give the surface a deep clean and allow it to dry for one day. Then simply wet a clean cloth with the impregnator and rub it into the surface.\nStorage:Closed, cool and frost free Shelf life of up to 3 years. Open containers should be used up without delay.\nEnvironmental Protection:Free of chlorinated and other environmentaly harmful hydrocarbons. The contained polymers are dissolved in water and inert once dry. Lithofin MN Stain-Stop >ECO< is therefore ecologically sound (>ECO
