Performance & Testing
- Weathering Resistance (DIN EN ISO 4892-1:2006): Coating remains effective after 550 hours of accelerated exposure, equivalent to 5 years of weathering.
- Frost-Thaw & Salt Resistance (DIN EN 12371:2010-07 / TL Pflaster-StB 06): Treated stone showed significantly reduced mass loss after 100 cycles, confirming high durability against freeze-thaw and de-icing salt conditions.
- Water Vapour Diffusion (DIN EN ISO 12572:2001): No negative impact on breathability; permeability remains intact.
- Water Absorption (CSIRO BEST-2:1998): Water absorption reduced to 3.87% by weight on sandstone surfaces.
- Salt Damage Resistance (AS/NZS 4456.10:2003): Treated surfaces exhibited high resistance to damage from salt exposure.
- Abrasion Resistance (ASTM C1353:1996): Achieved an abrasion index of 11.36, indicating improved surface strength and wear resistance.
- Hydrophobicity: Demonstrates pronounced water repellency with superhydrophobic behaviour, forming a thin, protective layer without altering vapour permeability or substrate appearance.
- Food Contact Safety: Confirmed physiologically safe for surfaces that may come in contact with food.
- Environmental Compliance:
- REACH Compliant
- ZDHC MRSL V2.0 Compliant

Open or Close How is VP Porous Stone Protector applied?
Application is best accomplished through precision spraying utilizing advanced spray devices such as HVLP nozzles. Alternatively, manual application involves spraying surfaces at least twice (wet-on-wet) from a distance of 15 cm. Dipping, brushing, or using a lambswool roller are also viable methods, albeit with higher consumption expected.
Open or Close What surfaces can VP Porous Stone Protector be applied to?
Its versatile application extends to a broad spectrum of absorbent stone surfaces including light concrete, mineral concrete, granite, marble, sandstone, slate, limestone, clay tiles, and more.
Open or Close How long does VP Porous Stone Protector last?
Rigorous testing under artificial weathering with Xenon arc lamps guarantees stability over an impressive 550 hours, equivalent to five years of weathering.
Open or Close Is VP Porous Stone Protector environmentally friendly?
Absolutely. Its water-based, formaldehyde-free composition conforms to stringent REACH and ZDHC MRSL V2.0 standards, ensuring environmental safety without compromising efficacy.
Open or Close What is the recommended consumption rate of VP Porous Stone Protector?
Consumption rates vary based on surface absorbency, typically ranging between 20 and 60 ml per square meter.
Open or Close Can VP Porous Stone Protector be applied to damp surfaces?
Yes, it is specifically engineered to be applied on recently formed and still damp substrates, enhancing convenience and flexibility during application.
Open or Close Does VP Porous Stone Protector alter the appearance of the stone?
Not in the slightest. It preserves the natural elegance and texture of the stone, leaving no discernible alterations post-application.
Open or Close How can I ensure the best results when using VP Porous Stone Protector?
Optimal results are ensured by meticulous surface preparation, including the removal of dust, grease, and residues of cleaning agents. Additionally, conducting a stability and functionality examination on an inconspicuous area prior to full application is recommended for impeccable outcomes.
