“I have delayed writing this review until the cream had been on the brickwork and had been exposed to the rain. The cream was easy to apply except when the weather was warmer and the cream melted quicker than it could be applied. It did take a couple of weeks to cure on the walls and now the rain is beading off the brickwork. I was quite surprised to see that the pointing does change colour in the rain in places even though a very generous amount of cream was applied evenly to the brick and pointing. On application of the cream the pointing did discolour in places but I don't mind as long as the wall is waterproof. I currently have a de-humidifier running in the worst affected bedroom to see if the damp staining on the internal walls is historic rather than ongoing. The jury is out at the moment. Fingers crossed this has worked”
“Goes on well but not as well as microshield and the coverage is poor meaning you have to buy more. I would suggest spending the extra and buying microshield. Again, I cannot comment on its efficacy”
Hi Nick,
Thank you for your review, and we're sorry that you had issues with your order. Apart from the amount of active ingredients, MicroShield Ultra and PermaSEAL Facade Cream have the same consistency and coverage rates, so the difference in coverage is normally down to the type of substrate it has been applied to and the conditions, which vary with each facade. If you have any questions about this, please don't hesitate to reach out to our technical team at: 0117 982 3282 or sales@permagard.co.uk
Thanks,
The Permagard team
“good so far...
I have applied it to a rough sandstone finish with roller and brush and it goes on easily and has soaked in. Also tried a spry which did work but the prduct needs to loosen up a bit. stopped doing this as I felt the roughnmess of the wall needed a brush.
I have no idea if it works and certainly no idea if it will last 20 yrs as claimed.
time will tell on thes fornts”
