Concrete Shield™ Wet Look Enhancer

Concrete Shield™ Wet Look Enhancer is a penetrating sealer and finishing treatment for polished concrete. Its silane/siloxane blend helps repel water, oil and grease while enriching the colour of concrete to produce a deeper, wet-look appearance without forming a conventional topical coating.

Information

Concrete Shield™ Wet Look Enhancer is a penetrating sealer and colour-enhancing finishing treatment designed primarily for polished concrete floors.

Typically applied during the final stages of the concrete polishing process, its silane/siloxane blend penetrates the prepared surface and helps reduce the absorption of water, oils and grease.

Wet Look Enhancer enriches and darkens the natural colour of concrete, producing a deeper, richer appearance while maintaining the character of the polished surface. Unlike conventional film-forming sealers, it penetrates the surface rather than creating a heavy topical coating.

It complements the Concrete Shield™ polished concrete system following grinding, grouting, densification and polishing.

Wet Look Enhancer can also be used on suitable absorbent terrazzo, terracotta and natural or artificial stone where a richer, colour-enhanced appearance is required.

For polished concrete where a more natural appearance is preferred, choose Concrete Shield™ Natural Look Enhancer.

Product Application

Tip: Always try the product on a small, hidden spot first to make sure you're happy with the result.

Before you begin, make sure the surface is completely dry, clean, and free of any stains or marks. Then, apply the product evenly using a microfiber mop, roller, or brush. How much you need will depend on how absorbent the surface is — usually between 4 and 40 square meters per litre. The surface should look evenly wet and slightly shiny. After about 20 minutes, apply a second coat the same way.

Wait another 20 minutes, then gently wipe away any extra product using a cloth that's slightly damp with Concrete Shield™ Wet Look Enhancer. This helps remove puddles, drips, or streaks.

Once the surface feels dry to the touch, use a buffing pad or similar tool to remove any remaining residue. Try not to use too much product at once, as that can make cleanup harder.

Surfaces

Make sure all surfaces are clean and free from oils and dust before you start. Keep in mind that some stones may absorb the product unevenly, which can cause cloudy or patchy spots. Also, be careful to protect glass, polished surfaces, plastics, varnishes, and other materials that can be damaged by splashes.

Avoid using this product on surfaces that are wet or don’t absorb liquids well, as it won’t work properly. Remember, marble and limestone can still be damaged by acids even after treatment.

Most of the solvents dry within two hours. You can walk on the floor after 12 hours, but it takes about 48 hours for the product to fully work. The surface temperature should be between 10°C and 25°C while applying. Also, turn off underfloor heating and avoid working in direct sunlight.

Finally, how much product you’ll need depends on the surface — more porous surfaces soak up more, so they require more product.
