Stainstop masonry floor protection keeps ground surfaces looking like new
Stainstop pavement protector is an invisible impregnation coating that keeps paths, forecourts, platforms and high-streets looking like new. Applied to any clean masonry floor, one treatment of Stainstop delivers hydrophobic, lipophobic and oleophobic protection that lasts for up to five years, even in the highest traffic environments.
If you're looking to maintain appearances and keep pedestrian areas free from chewing gum, then Stainstop is the invisible floor protection system for you.
Stainstop anti-chewing gum floor system offers super-hydrophobic, oleophobic and lipophobic protection for high streets, pavements and paths. Applied by roller or spray to any indoor or outdoor masonry floor, Stainstop dries to produce an invisible shield that will protect floors without changing their appearance or altering their slip coefficient.
A single application of Stainstop lasts around 3 to 5 years and repels water, fats and oils whilst also preventing food litter such as chewing gum, takeaways and dropped sweets from sticking to and staining our public spaces.
Manufacturer Urban Hygiene recently applied a sample of Stainstop to the car-park at its headquarters to demonstrate exactly the sort of protection the product will afford any masonry surface to which it is applied.
The coating was completely dry around 10 minutes after application, as well as being completely imperceptible and concealed.
It is only when it rains or when something like pop, petrol, oil or blood is spilt on a Stainstop protected surface that you really notice it working so the company had to wait for the next rainy day to see its handiwork at its best. Fortunately, in Doncaster you don't have to wait too long for rain so the results of the demonstration were soon revealed.
"If you have a masonry surface you need to keep clean then Stainstop is the product for you," says the company. "100% trafficable and completely invisible, Stainstop keeps pedestrian areas, forecourts, market stalls and high streets, paths and alleyways looking their best and free from gum litter and foul.
"Our Stainstop floor protection systems are manufactured to perform in the toughest of high traffic areas and built to last."
The product is also available as Stainstop+ Fungicide - specifically formulated for the further control of green moss and algae.
