Professional® Water Sealant is a unique penetrating water repellent which is manufactured using room temperature vulcanizing (RTV) silicone rubber as the active ingredient. This high performance “gun grade” silicone rubber was developed for use by the military during World War II to meet applications requiring superior durability and resistance to extreme temperatures. It’s use provides all formulations of Professional® Water Sealant with performance characteristics that far exceed those of other penetrating water repellent technologies.

Protect Against

• Freeze-thaw Damage: Cracking from water absorbing into masonry, freezing, and expanding.
• Spalling: Chipping and flaking from water absorbing into masonry, freezing, and expanding.
• Efflorescence: Water migrating through masonry and dissolving salts that deposit on the surface and weaken masonry.
• Lime Run: Water migrating through masonry and dissolving calcium hydroxide that deposits on the surface and weakens masonry.
• Mold: Mold eats away at masonry as it grows in damp areas with a food source such as dirt.

Professional Products of Kansas, Inc. manufactures three strengths of Professional® Water Sealant that provide superior protection for all types of porous, above-grade building materials.

PWS-5

Hard fired brick, poured concrete, most horizontal surfaces

PWS-8

Very porous brick and concrete, stucco, sandstone and limestone

PWS-15

Split face, fluted, expanded shale and other extremely porous block
