Sikagard®-703 GroutSeal
A ready-to-use, low viscosity silane/siloxane water repellent impregnation in aqueous phase. Deeply penetrates tile joints, concrete, and building surfaces to provide strong water resistance without changing the substrate appearance. Reduces dirt pick-up and inhibits fungal and algal growth. Water-based and environmentally friendly.

Application Steps
- Substrate Preparation: Surface must be clean, dry, and free from dust, dirt, grease, oil, and loose particles. Ensure tile joints are sound and free from old sealant residues.
- Application: Apply Sikagard®-703 GroutSeal using a low-pressure spray gun, brush, or roller in a single layer from top to bottom. Take care not to let the product run or pool on the surface.
- Protection: Protect the treated surface from rain for at least 3 hours at +20°C after application.
- Overcoating: Can be overcoated with water or solvent-based polymer paints – contact the paint manufacturer for compatibility details. For Sikagard® polymer paint, wait at least 5 hours before applying.
- Cleaning: Clean all tools and equipment with water immediately after use. Hardened or cured material can only be removed mechanically.
