Cleaning and Protecting Brick Facades with Dry-Treat

Belgian Brick Home

THE PROJECT:
The external walls of this brick home in Nieuwkerken-waas, Belgium were in need of a serious clean. The exposed brick walls were a shade of their former selves, literally. Air pollution, mold and general grime had stained the home. The owners requested that the brick walls be cleaned and sealed to protect the surface from future staining.

SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS:
- Complete removal of existing stains
- Treated surface must stay cleaner for longer
- Superior protection against staining
- Sealer cannot alter original look of surface

THE DRY-TREAT SOLUTION:
The neglected brick surfaces required a cleaner that would remove the layers of grime and dirt. To prevent the surface reverting back to its previous state, long lasting stain protection was also needed. The sealer applied would therefore need to have a strong UV-resistance and stand up to cleaning processes.

For these reasons HANAFINN Oxy-Klenza™ and STAIN-PROOF Original™ were selected for the project.
