Priceless care for building
Nano Guard is a water-based high performance water repellent coating. It forms a hydrophobic beneath the surface and seals out moisture while remaining highly vapour permeable. The visual appearance of the treated surfaces will show nominal or no change resulting from product application. The benefits include enhanced resistance to efflorescence. Freeze thaw damage, cracking and spalling. Cured system is resistant to ultraviolet light and may be used as a sealer for surface coatings. It does not produce a surface film or impair the natural breathing characteristics of treated surfaces.
Nano Guard is an additive used in the manufacture of aqueous masonry coatings and aqueous primers to enhance water repellency, waterresistance and water- vapour permeability. It also improves the processability and antiblock characteristics of the aqueous coatings.

These figures are only intended as a guide and should not be used in preparing specifications.
Nano Guard may also be thinned with water for use a water-repellent primer on material substrates and as a water repellent for in-plant manufactured insulation materials.
Processing Nano Guard may be added undiluted to aqueous masonry coatings and primers either duringafter manufacture. We recommend Nano Guard water-repellent dilution 1:10(chemical : water) parts by weight with water. When such primers are required to strengthen the substrate, we recommend adding a polymer dispersion in hydrosol form. For the impregnation of insulating materials.
Storage: The "Best use before end date of each batch is shown on the product label.
Storage beyond the date specified on the label does not necessarily mean that the product is no longer usable. In this case however, the properties required for the intended use must be checked for quality assurance reasons.
