Description
ProtectGuard® HD – Heavy Duty Sealer
ProtectGuard® HD acts against the main causes of degradation, such as atmospheric pollution, greasy soiling, water seepage, acid rain, chewing gum and general dirt and grime. It prevents these contaminants from soaking into the surface and therefore prevents permanent staining. Spills and stains can then easily be cleaned off the surface during regular maintenance cleaning.
ProtectGuard® HD heavy duty sealer is tried and proven. It has been competitively selected for projects all over the world. Some examples include Tian An Men Square and the Beijing National Stadium in China, the Louis Vuitton Foundation Building in Paris, and the pavement around Whitehall in London. Further, it has a 10 year, AXA insurance backed guarantee for use in high traffic flooring applications.
ProtectGuard® HD is an Environmentally Friendly Eco Sealer
At Guard Industry we pride ourselves on providing high performance products which are not harmful to people or the environment. All our products have been developed with the goal of zero environmental impact. ProtectGuard® HD is tough on stains but gentle on the environment. It is safe for applicators, end users and the environment. This eco sealer is:
- Non Hazardous & Non Toxic
- Silicone & Solvent Free
- 100% Biodegradable
- Water Based
- VOC <1 g/l
ProtectGuard® HD is a Natural Look, Permanent Anti-Graffiti Coating
ProtectGuard® HD even repels graffiti! It prevents paint and ink from getting into the pores of treated surfaces. These can then be easily removed with GraffiGuard 2030 Eco without damaging the sealer. This eco graffiti remover can be used safely with both ProtectGuard® and ProtectGuard® HD. This is a very safe and effective means of controlling and managing graffiti.
Most anti graffiti coatings will change the appearance of the surface. Such coatings detract from the raw beauty of natural materials. Using ProtectGuard® or ProtectGuard® HD is a safe and effective way to retain that beauty while also providing protection against nuisance graffiti.
ProtectGuard® HD is Easy to Use
ProtectGuard® HD is a safe water based product. It is applied in an easy one coat application with either a low pressure garden sprayer, roller or a brush. We recommend using a garden sprayer with a nice even mist like spray. Apply one coat to the point of saturation. Then walk away! Don’t over apply. You just need enough product to achieve a wet film that persists for a minute or so. Protect the surface for 24 hours. Best performance achieved after 7 days. Clean-up any equipment with water and reuse on your next job.Is ProtectGuard® HD Right for You?
ProtectGuard® HD will provide excellent protection on medium to low porosity materials. It is suitable for use on a wide range of products and surfaces. Some suitable materials include:
- Concrete
- Terracotta
- Bluestone
- Travertine
- Granite
- Synthetic & Reconstituted Stone
- Non crystallised Marble
ProtectGuard® HD may not be suitable or cost effective for very porous materials or very low porosity materials. We always recommend performing a water droplet test on your materials to help with material selection. The test is simple to do. Simply put a drop of water on the material and see how long it takes to soak into the surface. Then compare to the chart to see which products are suitable.
Chris Thorne –
Hi,
My name is Chris Thorne and I wrote my first Testimonial on Guard Industry product over 2 years ago, I would like to update my Testimonial and let you know I am still using Guard Industry’s cleaning and sealing range.
As an Accredited Sealer Applicator my go to sealers are Guard Industry’s ProtectGuard® or ProtectGuard® HD Sealers as they are a water base penetrating sealer, 100% Biodegradable, has a 10-year effectiveness guarantee and very user friendly.
There are no hidden secrets in the “how to use” instructions, for large jobs I prefer to apply the ProtectGuard® Sealer using a sprayer and wiping of the access using a lamb’s wool applicator. Smaller jobs I use a fence paint brush or a lamb’s wool applicator to apply the sealer and use a microfibre cloth to wipe of the access.
Please remember the key to a good sealing job is preparation and for this I use Guard Wash® or Guard Wash® Express as it eliminates organic contaminates on all materials.
