Unglazed Brick
Unglazed Brick
TSSPRO SEALANT PRODUCTS FOR UNGLAZED BRICK
UNGLAZED BRICK: is made from natural clay or shale. Unglazed bricks, with their natural and rugged appearance, are commonly used in projects where a more traditional or rustic look is desired, such as in heritage or industrial-themed. Unglazed bricks are porous and should be sealed.
Considerations for choosing a sealer: The following are all factors for selecting a sealer. The sealer descriptions below will mention which attributes they have to help in your selection; color enhancing/color change, adding a wet look, minimizing cooking area stains, salt-water erosion resistance, efflorescence resistance, preventing oil (cooking/motor) stains, preventing discoloring mold/algae, preventing deterioration/flaking, adding slip resistance, VOC compliance for requiring states (water base sealers are VOC compliant), moisture content of the substrate, general stain resistance and general protection.
Coverage, Number of Coats: Unglazed brick can be sealed with penetrating sealers or with film forming sealers. For penetrating sealers two saturation coats should be applied. For film forming sealers only one coat is generally required. Coverage will vary with the sealer selected but will be about 200 sq ft / gallon. If a second coat is used il generally will get greater coverage. Testing first is always recommended.
All of the sealers listed below can be used. Because unglazed brick is porous many sealant features/sealers can apply, from general protection from water ingress to color/gloss enhancement (it is often considered to look better with a gloss wet look). Film forming sealers can also help in preventing water ingress with their continues surface envelope coating that can cover small fractures and cracks.
