- Do not use in applications where temperature can exceed 150 °C as the product will decompose at this temperature.
- It is the user’s responsibility to determine suitability for use. If in doubt contact Technical Services for advice.

Sika Stone Protector Application
SUBSTRATE QUALITY / PRE-TREATMENT
All surfaces must be clean and free of dust, oil and grease. Remove any organic growth with Sika Mould- buster. On established paving, remove all organic and loose particles etc. If power-washed, allow to dry fully before application. On new paving remove any dust or loose material by sweeping with a stiff brush.
APPLICATION
Shake Sika Stone Protector well before use. Apply in dry weather using a good quality long pile roller or suitable brush. Apply in even coats ensuring any surface irregularities are covered (avoid pooling / ponding of product). Do not apply in temperatures below 5 °C or if rain is imminent (within 6 hours). Drying time will vary depending on conditions. As a guide, drying time will be approx. 1-3 hours at 20 °C. Drying time will be extended if applied below 10 °C. Ensure the surface is completely dry before trafficking. Normally only one coat is required however, for very porous surfaces such as Indian sandstone, a second coat may be required. The second coat must be applied typically within 30 minutes (before the first coat has dried). A consumption/appearance trial is recommended before use.
CLEANING OF TOOLS
Clean all equipment with clean water.
