Akemi TRANSFORMER Water-Based Impregnator
-
Size
AKEMI® Transformer is a ready-to-use, solvent-based impregnation built on reactive modified siloxanes. Drawn into the stone by capillary action, it reacts to form a polysiloxane that both intensifies the natural colour and structure of the stone and leaves a water- and dirt-resistant impregnation behind. It deepens and enriches flamed, brushed, satin, fine-ground, and polished surfaces — and is especially effective on dark and black stones such as Nero Assoluto, Impala Black, Galaxy, and Zimbabwe Black. Because it does not form a film on the surface, the stone keeps its polish and stays breathable.
