I have some 300 pound boulders I want to coat. Is this product a stand alone product or do I have to pre-treat with a sealer?

You shouldn't need a sealer, but I would buy 1 gallon and test it out before you coat the whole boulder to see how reliable it is.

pre-polish is used to "clean" the abrasive off. the longer you tumble with each media the brighter the rock at the end. you can experiment with different amounts of time and you can always put the rock through the process again!

I used a RV type scrub brush for the rubber cleaner available in camping or department stores. I used a sponge mop to apply the protectant sealer. It was easy, fast, and worked wonderfully. Of course weather conditions determine the drying time, but it dries very fast. I think I allowed an hour or so after the cleaning and the sealer dries very fast - while your applying (it in small 3 foot sections) you can see the previous section drying while working on the next. I believe it recommended 24 hours before rain, so check weather. Apply at least two coats sealer (wait about 3 hours after first) - Great Product!

Yes, this product is designed to clean and maintain sealed countertops, but does not act as a sealant itself. You will need a separate penetrating sealer to fully protect your countertops.

After several months and several different sealer applications by the installer, which did not prevent staining, we ourselves used Stonetech and it worked great. No problem installing on granite that had had multiple sealer treatments with different products. After 1 year, it still works great.

I did not like it. I have polished granite and it put a glossy coating on it. I thought it would soak in. I must have had dust and even a hair that was missed when I cleaned bathroom granite and now they are under the seal coat. I want to know how to get it off.

The kit comes with sealer. I put 2 coats of sealer. One coat makes flat-semi gloss, two coats make semi gloss and three coats make glossy finish. I did it about 2 months ago, the finish looks nice and does not scratch off.

I use this sealant on my marble kitchen counters/backsplash. I looks shiny and wet going on, but then you buff it off and there is no wet residual look. The stone is not left shinier than before you started. I have not used stonetech bulletproof so cannot compare the two products. Miracle Sealants 511 was the product recommended by the installers and where we bought the marble.

I used a Speedwheel Grout Sealer and Stain applicator. It's basically a plastic bottle with a small wheel attached to it. The wheel was about the same width as my grout and it worked really well.

Lyle, Im building a new home, I used a concrete form wall called superior walls as my foundation. Before I had the foundation backfilled, I coated the entire outside wall with the product. I used it as a sealant for my basement. I have heard nothing but good things and trusted it on my own home. I am a builder and would recommend this to my customers. Bobby

I'm not sure if I understand the question, but I believe the answer is no. The directions state that the surface needs to be clean and dry and free of waxing or coatings. I take that to mean that all previous sealents need to be removed. I hope that helps.

According to page 4 of the operator's manual, the answer would be that clear sealers, oil stains, and polyurethane may be sprayed without any thinning. Of course, as they say, 'your mileage may vary' depending on specifically which formula you're using as some may be thicker than others and you'll always want to follow the coating manufacturer's instructions to the letter as well as having all of your cleanup supplies ready to go so you can clean the gun immediately upon completing your spraying.

It occurs to me that silicone has high friction and that a thin film of it on granite would feel sticky. So an idea would be to completely clean the top surface after sealing.

I used it on marble benches in a bank lobby after first cleaning them. I then applied this product and thoroughly buffed it into the marble as a polish and sealer.

I like this product, but it is expensive for how long it lasts and you must follow the directions exactly. You MUST let it dry. It is not a solvent. It is a poultice, that is, it pulls the water spot out of the granite. I experienced the same "larger spot occurring" the first time I used it and did not let it dry. Hope this helps.
