Haze Away is a non acidic problem solver formulated to simplify the grout clean up process by helping to prevent grout haze from cement based, latex modified & epoxy grout. Helps prevent latex film from forming on stone and tile surfaces.  Can also be used to remove existing grout haze and latex film within 10 days of grouting.

USE

For porous surfaces e.g. all natural stone like basalt, bluestone, granite, limestone, marble, quartzite, sandstone, slate, travertine etc., plus porcelain tiles, encaustic tiles, terrazzo, concrete, pavers, saltillo, grout and other surfaces where a natural look and maximum stain and water resistance is required.

TEST FIRST

Always test first in an inconspicuous area to determine ease of application, coats required, colour stability and desired results. The end user must determine suitability of product for their own use.

PRECAUTIONS & SAFETY DIRECTIONS
  1. Read entire label, SDS and technical bulletin before using; 
  2. Wear appropriate gloves, skin and eye protection; 
  3. Use when surface temperature is between 4°C & 32°C;
  4. Surface must be clean, dry and free from sealers and coatings;
  5. Do NOT allow sealer to drip or leave drip marks on the surface;
  6. Do NOT use on the underside of the tile or stone. If six sided/dip sealing is required, then use Ultra-Block.
PREPARATION OF SURFACE

Use XtremeClean+ or Stonewash+ as per label instructions to clean and prepare the surface to be sealed.

INSTRUCTIONS – PRE-SEALING

For quick and easy clean-up after grouting as porous surface may stain during install and grouting.

  • Pre-seal surface before installing or 24 hours after installation
  • Do NOT saturate the open grout joints; 
  • Allow minimum 24 hours cure time before grouting;
  • If using dark or contrasting grout, apply Grout Release Pro after Aqua-Seal Gold+® has cured, then grout as usual.
INSTRUCTIONS – SEALING
  1. Apply sealer to clean, dry surface using a sealer applicator, pump sprayer, sealer sponge, brush, paint roller or paint pad;
  2. Ensure even coat & coverage then work product in thoroughly;
  3. After 5-10 minutes, wipe the surface COMPLETELY DRY with absorbent paper or cotton towels to remove any excess;
  4. DO NOT ALLOW PRODUCT TO DRY ON THE SURFACE;
  5. Repeat this process for each application;
APPLICATION NOTES
  1. For vertical surfaces apply bottom to top and avoid rundown;
  2. Porous surfaces will require additional coats. If 2 or more coats are required, allow minimum 30 minutes between coats; 
  3. 2 hours after final coat, do a test to determine if surface is properly sealed. Apply some water droplets. If water is easily absorbed then apply an additional coat. Wait 2 hours and repeat the test. 
  4. The surface is ready for light traffic after 2 hours. Keep dry for  minimum 12 hours.  Full cure in 24 hours.
EXPECTED WEAR

Will vary depending on surface texture and hardness, traffic wear plus frequency and type of  cleaning products used. Harsh cleaning including pressure washing, high alkaline, acidic or solvent-based cleaners and/or weather exposure will affect wear and performance. High traffic and exterior areas will require more frequent re-application. RE-SEAL AS NECESSARY.

COVERAGE

Approximately 40-160m2 per 4 litre per coat. It will vary depending on the density, porosity, texture and absorption. Also weather conditions, the application method and number of coats required.
