LTP: it’s a good time to protect

STONE and polished porcelain floors need to be resealed periodically and, if a floor requires a very deep clean or it has been stripped, protection may also need to be reinstated. As the surface is already stripped of dirt and residue, treatment will be quick and straight forward.

Says LTP: ‘The ECOPROTEC range includes three protectors for indoor surfaces: Natural Finish Stone Sealer and Colour Enhancing Sealer for natural stone, and Polished Porcelain Sealer. All three sealers are water-based impregnators. Unlike film-forming or topical sealers which sit on the surface of a tile, impregnating sealers penetrate, react and line the open pores.

‘They create a hydrophobic and oleophobic barrier that helps prevent deep staining and facilitates future cleaning and aftercare. ECOPROTEC Natural Finish Stone Sealer provides invisible protection, whilst Colour Enhancing Sealer protects and enhances a natural stone finish by intensifying natural pigments. ECOPROTEC Polished Porcelain Sealer is also a natural finish. All three treatments protect against staining, while allowing surfaces to breathe, and strongly repel water, oil, and grease.’

Matt porcelain tiles don’t need to be sealed after deep cleaning but they’ll reportedly benefit from application of a barrier treatment, like ECOPROTEC Porcelain Tile Protector. ‘As well as protecting tiles from staining during installation, this protector also creates a barrier against dirt and residue, making ongoing maintenance easy.’

Samples and specification advice
Free samples of ECOPROTEC treatments are available from LTP, on request. For specification guidance, free advice can also be accessed at www.ecoproductselector.com.

The diagnostic and specification tool is designed to give instant feedback, identifying the correct eco-treatment according to tile type and symptom. As well as supporting flooring contractors and specifiers, the Product Selector is also a valuable retail sales aid and training tool.
