Gator Skin is an amazing inorganic silicone penetrating protectant. Its unique inorganic silicone chemistry makes it highly resistant to natural elements, ensuring long - lasting performance. Available in gallon size for larger projects. It penetrates deep into the substrate, offering years of internal protection. Its breathable design prevents moisture trapping and stops water from penetrating the substrate, safeguarding it from the weather. It's easy to apply, keeps the natural appearance of the surface, and is suitable for various porous materials like natural stone, bricks, wood, and concrete.
Before using Gator Skin, make sure the surfaces are clean, dry, and free of any contaminants. The performance of the product is closely related to how well the surface is prepared. Remove all grease, oil, and potential contaminants. Don't apply it when the air or surface temperature is below 50°F. It's a good idea to test it on your surface first. For concrete, let it cure for at least 28 days before sealing. Read the label instructions carefully. You can use Cobble Clean, Cobble Prep, and Cobble Oxhide for specific cleaning needs. Just stir the product before use. You can apply it with a lambs wool or microfiber cloth, working the material into the surface. If using an airless sprayer, overlap each pass, apply in an even film, and maintain a wet line. Remove any excess material after 3 - 5 minutes. On bare surfaces, apply and let it penetrate for 3 - 5 minutes, then remove the excess. Don't let excess or pooling dry on the surface. If the surface was previously sealed with a film - forming sealer, strip it before applying Gator Skin. You can apply it over non - film - forming sealers if the previous application has worn away.
