Best Travertine Sealer Wakerley - Brisbane

Frequently, a sealer from the local hardware store is applied in Wakerley, only to later discover that the travertine appears glassy, becomes slippery, or starts to peel off soon after. Unfortunately, it's only at this stage that one realizes alternative sealing options are available.

When selecting a sealant, several crucial factors should be taken into account, including the final appearance, safety (slip resistance), reliability, durability, wear resistance, ease of application (drying/curing time), and cost, among others.

Select the appropriate sealer for your travertine stone in Wakerley.

Sealing is crucial to safeguard your travertine against staining and deterioration in Wakerley. If you have a travertine tiled floor in Wakerley, you're aware of its rapid liquid absorption.

While sealing travertine in Wakerley won't entirely prevent liquids from being absorbed, it does provide a window of opportunity to wipe away spills before they can cause any permanent damage.

Sealers are formulated to enhance the natural stain resistance of stone; however, they cannot offer 100% protection against all stains in every circumstance. For instance, impregnating sealers may not fully shield travertine in Wakerley from being etched by acidic solutions like citrus, wine, or soft drinks. Instead, impregnating sealers decrease stain absorption, allowing you more time to clean spills.

When it comes to sealers in Wakerley, the saying holds true: you truly receive the quality you invest in.

For travertine stone in Wakerley, selecting a sealer tailored to the specific contaminants present in the installation area is crucial. For instance, in kitchens or food service spaces in Wakerley, opt for a sealer with strong oil resistance and certified safety for food contact.

Two Types of Sealer

Sealers fall under the 2 following categories in Wakerley
Penetrating Sealer

(Impregnating, Transparent or Colour Enhancing)

Impregnating sealants effectively penetrate the travertine substrate in Wakerley, infiltrating the microscopic pinholes and open fissures inherent in its natural texture.

A transparent impregnating sealer in Wakerley won't alter the appearance of your sealed travertine, preserving its natural look. It won't hinder the stone's ability to release vapor and boasts a longer lifespan compared to film-forming sealers.

  • Extended lifespan as the protection resides within the substrate, rather than just on the surface.
  • Unaffected by UV light
  • Permits the stone to "breathe," allowing retained moisture to escape.
  • Surface remains non-slippery.
  • Enhances the life expectancy of travertine.

For optimal defense against oil and water-based stains, as well as to preserve the appearance and slip resistance while avoiding moisture entrapment, it's advised to seal your travertine in Wakerley with a high-quality, transparent impregnating sealer that allows full breathability.

The incorporation of fluoro-chemical technology in Australian GOLD represents the pinnacle of sealer advancements in Wakerley, delivering unparalleled long-term defense against water and oil-based stains.

Topical

(Film Forming, Coating or Surface Sealant)

Topical Sealers are products that rest on the surface of the travertine substrate in Wakerley, serving as a barrier between the stone and potential stains.

Applied to the surface, topical sealers cure and form a visible film once hardened in Wakerley. However, they are often unsuitable for use with materials like travertine as they hinder the stone's ability to breathe in Wakerley, may not adhere properly, and can lead to slipperiness.

  • Prone to easy abrasion, resulting in noticeable areas of scuffing or wear.
