Concrete Shield™ Natural Look Enhancer is a penetrating finishing treatment for polished concrete where a natural appearance is preferred. It helps reduce the absorption of water, oil and grease without forming a heavy surface film or significantly changing the appearance of the concrete.
Information | Applications | Specifications | Downloads | FAQs
Concrete Shield™ Natural Look Enhancer is a penetrating sealer and finishing treatment designed primarily for polished concrete floors.
Typically applied during the final stages of the concrete polishing process, its penetrating technology helps reduce the absorption of water, oils and grease. Unlike conventional film-forming sealers, Natural Look Enhancer works within the surface while maintaining the appearance and character of polished concrete.
The treatment enhances the natural colour of the concrete and helps produce an attractive, easy-to-maintain polished surface without creating a heavy topical coating.
Natural Look Enhancer complements the Concrete Shield™ polished concrete system following grinding, grouting, densification and polishing. It can be used with Concrete Shield™ Grout 1000, Potassium/Lithium Densifier and Premium Lithium Densifier as part of a complete polished concrete process.
Natural Look Enhancer can also be used on suitable absorbent terrazzo, terracotta and natural or artificial stone where water and oil repellency with a natural appearance is required.

Apply Concrete Shield™ Natural Look Enhancer as the final penetrating treatment after the required grinding, grouting, densification and polishing stages.
Ensure the surface is clean, completely dry and free from grinding residue, dust, oil, grease and contaminants. The surface must be sufficiently absorbent to allow penetration. Test a small area first to confirm compatibility and final appearance.
Apply evenly using a microfibre mop, roller or brush at approximately 4–40 m²/L depending on surface porosity. Wet the surface uniformly without excessive pooling. Where required by surface absorption, apply a second application within approximately 20 minutes. Remove excess material before it dries.
Allow approximately 12 hours before pedestrian traffic and 48 hours for full performance. Apply between 10°C and 25°C and protect the surface during initial curing.
Natural Look Enhancer forms part of the Concrete Shield™ Polished Concrete System. For surface grouting use Grout 1000, followed by the appropriate Potassium/Lithium Densifier or Premium Lithium Densifier.
For a deeper, colour-enhanced appearance, consider Concrete Shield™ Wet Look Enhancer.
Primarily designed for polished concrete floors as a penetrating finishing and protection treatment.
Also suitable for absorbent:
The surface must be clean, dry and sufficiently absorbent to allow penetration. Previously sealed, coated or non-absorbent surfaces may prevent correct penetration and should be tested before application.
Always test a small inconspicuous area to confirm absorption, compatibility and final appearance.
5L
It provides a final penetrating treatment that helps repel water, oil and grease while enhancing the natural colour and appearance of polished concrete.
It is typically applied during the final stages of the concrete polishing process after the required grinding, grouting, densification and polishing steps.
No. It penetrates into a suitable absorbent surface rather than forming a conventional film or heavy topical coating.
It enhances the natural colour and character of concrete while retaining a natural-looking polished finish.
Yes. Natural Look Enhancer helps reduce the absorption of water, oils and grease into suitable absorbent surfaces.
Coverage is approximately 4–40 m²/L depending on surface porosity and absorption.
Yes. It can also be used on suitable absorbent terrazzo, terracotta and natural or artificial stone. Always test before application.
Yes. It is suitable for interior and exterior absorbent mineral surfaces when correctly applied.
