This guide is for homeowners and DIY enthusiasts looking to enhance and protect their natural slate surfaces. The StoneCare4U Colour Boost Slate Sealer deepens the natural colour of slate, offering effective stain protection for both internal and external applications. A key consideration is that it permanently alters the stone's appearance, so testing in an inconspicuous area is crucial.

Yes, this product is designed to enhance and deepen the natural colour and appearance of the slate. Always test in an inconspicuous area first, as the change is permanent.
This product is specifically formulated for natural slate. It is not suitable for Kandla Grey (mid and light grey) sandstone. Always confirm compatibility with your specific stone type.
The product needs time to cure. It is essential to ensure the surface is completely dry for at least 72 hours before sealing. While the sealer itself will begin to set, prolonged exposure to moisture before full curing can affect performance. Ideally, apply in dry conditions and ensure no rain for at least 24-48 hours post-application, although complete drying of the substrate is paramount.
The ideal application temperature range is between 15°C and 23°C.
Clean sealed slate surfaces using mild detergents and water. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the seal.
No, the product should not be diluted. Apply it directly as instructed for optimal performance.
The duration of protection can vary depending on environmental conditions and wear. Regular cleaning with mild products will help maintain the finish. Reapplication may be necessary over time.
This can occur if excess sealer was not removed promptly or if the surface was not uniformly dry. Ensure excess is wiped off within the specified time. For severe issues, re-evaluate surface preparation and consider a test patch on a similar area.
Verify that the surface was completely dry and that the application temperature was within the 15-23°C range. Humidity or moisture trapped in the stone will prevent proper curing.
This may indicate that too much product was applied or excess was left on the surface for too long. Ensure proper removal of excess sealer within 20-30 minutes and that the product is applied in a thin, even coat.
Ensure you are using the correct application method and that the product is not diluted. Use a consistent technique with your chosen applicator (sprayer, roller, brush, or sponge).
