AREXAL® - Hydro - Ziegel

AREXAL®-Hydro-Ziegel impregnates all open-pored cementitious or mineral surfaces, both inside and outside.
This includes all types of concrete, screed, brick, clay, clinker, as well as various stones (e.g., sandstone, terracotta, brick, etc.). AREXAL®-Hydro-Ziegel forms a highly water- and dirt-repellent surface, preventing moss, fungus, or algae infestation and is very easy to clean.
The surface treated with AREXAL®-Hydro-Ziegel is protected against salt efflorescence, air pollution, and UV rays.

• easy and hassle-free to apply
• odorless
• environmentally friendly
• breathable
• acid-resistant
• single treatment
• longer lifespan
• reduced maintenance
• dust-binding
• easier cleaning

• colorless, odorless, solvent-free, non-flammable, and non-toxic
• leaves no film layer, but a transparent, clear, and natural surface
• water-soluble potassium methylsilanetriolate with organic catalyst, non-film-forming, highly capillary-active, non-flammable
• impregnates mineral building materials up to a depth of 60 mm (with one to max. two applications, wet on wet) and hydrophobizes the surface
• pure natural product based on water-soluble potassium methylsilanetriolate with organic catalyst, ready to use

Before use, turn the container upside down and shake well. ArexA-Hydro-Ziegel is most evenly and easily applied with a standard pressure sprayer. For small areas, a roller, brush, or sponge can also be used. To avoid puddling, the surface to be treated should be thinly and evenly wetted.
AREXAL®-Hydro-Ziegel should not be diluted and only transferred into unused containers. Generally, one treatment is sufficient.
For highly absorbent surfaces, an additional treatment – wet on wet – is recommended.

Note: AREXAL®-Hydro-Ziegel is hydrophobic. Therefore, do not apply to surfaces that are to be treated with further materials. Painting, etc., is not possible after treatment with AREXAL®-Hydro-Ziegel.

Basically, AREXAL®-Hydro-Concrete is a surface sealant with depth effect for all types of concrete, stone types (such as brick, sand-lime brick, granite, slate, etc.), clinker, and other stones.

It can be used on these materials when the surfaces are to be completely sealed and protected against water and acid, but not further treated or painted. The range of application possibilities is very wide, here are some examples where AREXAL®-Hydro-Ziegel has been successfully applied. AREXAL®-Hydro-Ziegel does not work on treated surfaces and materials.

Please check carefully whether your stones, etc., have been chemically treated. AREXAL®-Hydro-Ziegel can only be used on natural stones or bricks. In rare cases, some newer stones have been treated with additives, which can cause color deviation. If you are unsure, apply AREXAL-Hydro-Ziegel to an inconspicuous area for testing and wait 2 days.

• Brick facades (sealing, stone restoration, energy cost reduction, joint sealing) - e.g., in monument restoration
• unsealed stone floors (sand-lime brick, sandstone, granite, slate, terracotta, basalt, etc.)
• Kitchen countertops, bathroom shelves, window sills made of unsealed stone
• non-glazed tiles (e.g., terracotta, granite, slate, etc.)
• Exterior walls and masonry made of stones with a natural look
• Mineral plasters (without chemical or water-repellent substances)
• Roof tiles (unglazed, made of clay or concrete) – sealed (replace broken ones first!)
• Sealing of joints in showers, wet rooms
• Chimney (made of brick or other stone types with a natural look)
• Eternit panels (e.g., as house cladding or corrugated Eternit panels for the roof)
• Stone fountains
