Palace Aqueous Waterseal

Palace Aqueous Waterseal

Palace Aqueous Waterseal is a high-quality, water-based silicone emulsion designed to protect brick, stone, concrete, render, and masonry from penetrating damp caused by rainwater. Ideal for both new and existing properties, this clear, breathable solution maintains the natural appearance of surfaces while forming a durable water-repellent barrier.

Unlike traditional solvent-based sealers, Palace Aqueous Waterseal emits low odours, is eco-friendlier, and safer for use in domestic and urban environments.

Key Features:

1. Water-Based Formula:

2. Silicone Emulsion Technology:
   Penetrates deep into porous surfaces to form a long-lasting water-repellent barrier.
3. Protection Against Rainwater Damp:

   Allows trapped moisture to escape, helping to preserve the integrity of building materials.
