All surfaces must be clean, dry, and free from anything that may interfere with adhesion before applying Sandtex Trade WB Quick Drying Stabilising Solution.

• Clean away any loose material after application and ensure the surface is dry.

We always recommend testing the product on the surface to ensure compatibility. Do not apply if there is a risk of rain or if the air/surface temperature is likely to fall below 8°C or when the relative humidity is above 80% during the application or drying period.

• Apply a liberal coat by brush.
• Allow to dry thoroughly before applying any topcoats

Q. Why use a Stabilising Solution?

A. If you have a surface that is porous, such as bare or weathered masonry, cement render, or pebbledash, the Stabilising Solution helps to stabilize and consolidate the surface. It penetrates into the substrate and binds loose or powdery materials together, preventing them from flaking or peeling. The Stabilising Solution creates a sound base for the paint or coating to adhere to. By reducing the absorbency of the surface, it allows for better adhesion of subsequent layers. This ensures that the paint adheres properly and lasts longer.

Q. How long does it take Sandtex Quick Dry Stabilising Solution to dry?

A. It only takes 1 hour for Sandtex Quick Dry Stabilising Solution to dry and 4 hours for the surface to be ready for a topcoat. Allowing you to complete your exterior projects in minimal time. By sealing the surface and providing a consistent texture, it helps the paint or coating to spread evenly and achieve a smooth and uniform appearance.
