The Benefits of Waterbased Sealers

Are you looking for a high-quality, easy-to-apply, UV-resistant, non-hazardous, safe sealer that protects against stains, dirt, and marking?

Then look no further than the Premium Dulux Avista Waterbased Tintable Sealer and Primer system. This advanced waterbased technology will change the way you protect and enhance concrete surfaces.

Here are some of the amazing benefits of choosing the innovative waterbased sealer from the experts at Dulux Avista:

1) Easy to apply and clean up

The Dulux Avista Waterbased Sealer is easier to apply and clean up than solvent-based sealers. It also has better surface coverage and is fast drying, so you can complete projects in just one day. Being waterbased, it can be cleaned up with water, meaning there is no need for harsh chemicals in the clean-up process.

2) Resistant to wear and tear

Dulux Avista Waterbased Sealer is not only UV and fade-resistant, it is also resistant to stains, dirt, marking, and hot tyre pickup. This is because this advanced waterbased technology delivers a highly durable, superior finish using a primer and sealer system. The system is suitable for bare concrete or previously sealed surfaces, but you'll need to prime correctly to ensure the Dulux Avista Waterbased Tintable Sealer adheres to the substrate and achieves a high-performance finish.

The system includes:

• Dulux Avista Bare Concrete Primer - to densify and stabilise bare concrete surfaces and improve adhesion.
• Dulux Avista Sealed Surface Primer - to create a strong bond between the concrete surface and the sealer You can also add Dulux Avista Slip Reducing Powder to increase the slip rating up to P5, depending upon the slope of your driveway.

3) Low-VOC

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are emitted as gases from sealers, which are environmentally detrimental and can result in adverse health effects. Dulux Avista Waterbased Sealer is low-VOC, which means it is better for the environment in comparison to solvent-based sealers. It is also safer in poor ventilation areas and suitable for indoor spaces.

4) Low-odour

Dulux Avista Waterbased Sealer also has the benefit of having a milder odour than solvent-based sealers. Because they’re chemical-based, solvent sealers can produce a strong, unpleasant odour, which is particularly undesirable in interior, low-ventilation applications. Dulux Avista Waterbased Sealer is suitable for both indoor and outdoor uses.

5) Quick drying time

Looking to achieve durable, good-looking sealed concrete in less time? The new Dulux Avista Waterbased Sealer System is a game changer! With Dulux Avista's new Waterbased Sealer System, you can prime and seal in a single day!

With a solvent-based system, a two-day turnaround is more common, with a pressure clean on day 1 and application on day 2. Dulux Avista's new Waterbased Sealer System is a game changer, cutting job time in half, saving applicators time and money. First, apply Dulux Avista Bare Concrete Primer or Dulux Avista Sealed Surface Primer. Fast drying, these primers can be topcoated with Dulux Avista Waterbased Tintable Sealer on the same day! Dulux Avista Waterbased primers and sealer can even be applied to damp surfaces (if there is no pooled or standing water present), so there's no need to wait for damp concrete to dry.

6) Versatile

Dulux Avista Waterbased Sealer is very versatile. It provides a durable protective tintable coating for interior and exterior concrete surfaces, including pavers, stamped, stencilled, coloured, and exposed aggregate concrete, and rock and block walls. It can also be used on driveways, footpaths, garages, patios, and commercial and retail concrete surfaces.

7) Colour options

A big bonus for customers is the array of colour choices, with the new Dulux Avista Waterbased Tintable Sealer tintable in store to a range of 24 designer colours. Customers can choose from popular neutrals, greys, and traditional colours, including Sandy Beige, Merino, French Grey, and Charcoal, or they can choose to match their driveway or concrete paths to their Colorbond® roof.
