HG Protective Coating Satin Finish

Had to write a review of this excellent product. I used the HG tile cleaner before applying the tile protector and the result is superb, transforming our stone floor to the best it's ever looked since it was laid

Ignoring the animals because I couldn’t find a better ‘before’ picture! This stuff is amazing! My slate floor is relatively new (approx 4 months old) and I have scrubbed it 4 times with industrial strength cleaner, homemade white vinegar & bicarb, washing powder etc. It’s been sealed 5 times with another product but still always came back up chalky within a couple of days. This stuff instantly made a massive difference and although it takes 3 days to fully harden, it repelled a spill within minutes of being dry. Easy to apply and is exactly the look I wanted for my slate. I’ve just tiled the back porch in the same & will be putting this on that as well (in 6 weeks as this product does say don’t use over fresh grout). If you’re using on slate I would say make sure the tiles are scrubbed super clean as this will essentially gloss on top of any stains. I missed a bit of residue (thankfully in a non obvious place) which is now a glossy chalky blob!

Easy to apply and get an even coat of this polish. It drys quickly and to a really nice satin finish. However I have taken to doing 3 coats of this after a deep clean because it wears off quickly. Even then you’ll need to re do every couple of months. For general mopping I only use special terracotta floor cleaner so it isn’t harsh chemicals that are stripping it off, it’s just general wear on the floor. Certainly a wax finish lasts a lot longer. I guess the ease of applying this is a tiny % of the hassle of waxing though so it’s swings and roundabouts

The tiles in my hallway have been the bane of my life since we moved in. They were badly laid over an uneven surface, over time they came loose and broke. I'd had enough of stubbed toes, trips and cut feet so I decided to "restick" the wobbly and broken ones. After several attempts a runny adhesive worked best (working as a floor leveller too). The tiles are quite porous and the dirt stuck firm, during the first "lockdown" I scrapped all the old grout out by hand then regrouted. I spent 3 days on my knees (ouch) scrubbing with a brush and neat floor cleaner (flash worked best and I even tried "brick acid"). Two coats of HG Protective Coating Satin Gloss Finish and WOW I can't believe how good they look. I wish now I'd cut the loose tiles diagonally to sit better on the uneven parts of the floor instead of breaking them to fit. I fitted a carpet runner the length of the hallway. I'm looking forward to next spring as the hallway will be a joy to clean (I hope anyway). Its a great product, easy to use and left a lovely sheen on the tiles.

I’m gonna get the bad stuff out of the way and also admit this is entirely my fault for not reading about this but wanted to make others aware. I did a DIY terrazzo flooring recently and used this as a sealant (stupidly wore no gloves). Within half hour of finishing, my head and my body was so itchy that I felt like someone had thrown a concentrated chemical on me. Looked and felt like a nettle rash x10 my skin was all red and bumpy but did I know why? Did I heck. It took me 3 weeks of being on antihistamines and thinking the worst before I decide to trace my steps back to something I’d recently changed to figure out it was the floor sealant!! I would have no flare ups when I’m in work and have no contact with the floor but immediately I get back home, I’d turn into a itchy bumby lobster. It didn’t affect my husband so it was even harder to narrow it down. I swore to my husband it was the sealant as that’s when the symptom started. Lo and behold, we read the bottle and it says it may cause allergic reaction. My husband spent a couple hours mopping it off and resealed the floor with another finishing coat and I’m finally free!!! I know not everyone will be allergic but I was and was completely unexpected. For the good part whilst we had it: - It was actually really good and quick to work with - incredibly durable!! - good value for money as you don’t need tons Oh

Wow,I wish I had found this earlier. I had been using another product for many years but never had a good shine on my slate tiles. Used this yesterday and the colour and shine on my flooring is absolutely excellent. Will always use this now and I highly recommend it to everyone.

Very good it’s has done a great job Iooking nice

Good

Ravvivato .e migliorato tantissimo il mio pavimento in gres opaco poroso, adesso non mi sembra che sia sempre sporco, donato un po' di lucido come quando bagnato. É fantastico

Bien

Tous les produits pour sol HG sont excellents je les utilisent depuis des années. Dommage que l'on ne trouve plus le Glovpolish !!! Je les recommande

Despues de dejarlo secar una semana cualquier gota que cae deja marca y si lo intentas fregar se levanta todo haciendose grumos

super
