Proven Masonry Stain

Only works when masonry absorbs water. Brick or stone that is too dense or that has been sealed will not absorb the stain.

Once absorbed inside the surface it cannot peel, crack or blisterInorganic and chemically inert, its color never fadesPigments so fine they never:• Block the pores of the masonry• Seal the surface, or• Trap water that can damage masonry during

freeze/thaw cyclesTranslucent: natural variations in tone remain after staining shifts the color
