The best Silane Siloxane concrete sealers. Silane Siloxane concrete sealer reviews. When it comes to water repellent sealers, like Silane-Siloxane concrete sealers, the solids percentage is associated with active materials. The more active materials in the solution, the more aggressive the bead and the more protection the sealer is capable of offering. Here are a…
Read moreSilane-Siloxane water repellent sealers penetrate into the surface where they chemically react to form a hydrophobic barrier within the pores. The hydrophobic barrier will cause water and other liquids to bead off the surface, reducing damage and deterioration caused by water absorption such as cracking, spalling, pitting, staining, mold and mildew, and efflorescence. Silane-Siloxane Water…
