TC Impregnator stops this immediate absorption by filling the open pores before stains arrive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat TC Impregnator Does\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTC Impregnator is a neutral solvent-based impregnator for very porous terracotta and cotto. The 0.8 μm polymer molecules penetrate 2-4 mm, then cross-link, creating a water- and oil-repellent lattice while leaving the surface vapor-permeable. pH 7.9 means no etching on acid-sensitive clay. One coat reduces water uptake by 90 % within 24 h.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhen to Use\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndoor cotto kitchen floor after intensive cleaning; ready to use, 100 ml\/m².
