DEFY Solvent Base Water Repellent is an effective, penetrating water repellent in a mineral spirits carrier designed to protect above-grade masonry surfaces. It is designed to penetrate deeply in to most masonry and concrete pores and can be used as a clear sealant for brick and cement patios, a driveway sealer to water proof concrete, or other masonry surfaces. Best of all, this modified silane/siloxane product comes with a 7 year warranty. (Note: On cement patios where a sheen or “wet look” is desired, use Defy Epoxy Fortified Paver Sealer).
Film-formers vs. Penetrants
Other waterproofing sealers form a film on the surface and trap water vapors, DEFY Solvent Base Water Repellent allows deep penetration of its active ingredient of up to 1/4 inch or more. As a result, the special siloxanes in DEFY Solvent Base Water Repellent react to form strong chemical bonds beneath a treated surface. These bonds allow the product to become a physical part of the structure and provide long-lasting water repellent protection without altering the surface appearance.
100% Breathable Protection
Moisture, from either internal or external sources, is usually present in masonry and concrete. Film-forming sealers and silicone coatings form a water resistant surface that traps water vapors inside. If these vapors cannot escape, they will contribute to spalling, scaling, deterioration and freeze-thaw damage. DEFY Solvent Base Water Repellent is 100% vapor permeable, a non film-forming water repellent that penetrates and lines masonry and concrete pores.
Ideal for previously treated surfaces
With its mineral spirits base, DEFY Solvent Base Water Repellent is an ideal maintenance product for previously treated surfaces as the mineral spirits carrier will allow the product to bond with surfaces that have previously been waterproofed. It can also be applied over siliconized acrylic concrete stains.
