Instructions
for AD5:
Please
ensure Limestone is free from any dampness and
dust or loose material. Each application should
be done with a white lint free cloth soaked in
AD5 and applied by hand or machine ensure the
sealant is not allowed to puddle.It is very important
to ensure adequate ventilation, the drying sealant
gives of a heavy cellulose vapour. Allow to dry
for two hours then recoat using slightly less
sealant on second coat. If necessary a third coat
may be applied, this will increase protection
and begin to enhance colour. The sealant is also
able to seal grout and make it resistant to staining.

Granite
can be defined as "a very hard natural igneous rock
formation of visibly crystalline texture formed essentially
of quartz and orthoclase or microcline."
Granite
is one of the hardest stones available. It is a crystalline
igneous rock formed from deposits from deep within the
Earth. Massive molten structures from deep within the
Earth’s mantle have cooled to form granite.
Its
variety of colour and unique heat and scratch resistant
properties makes it ideal for use as a work-surface or
as flooring or for use as general purpose external and
internal cladding, taking advantage of its hard wearing
characteristics.
Granite
was used by the ancient Egyptians for building, generally
as a lining material for chambers and passages, interior
structure of temples, for door frames, and as facing stones
Molten
rock, also known as magma, exists under conditions of
extreme pressure and temperature deep inside the Earth.
During volcanic eruptions, some of this molten rock is
ejected onto the surface of the Eartch, or beneath oceans,
and cools to form an extrusive igneous rock, principally
basalt.
Granite
is formed from magma that remains inside the Earth and
is an intrusive igneous rock. This rock cools more slowly
than extrusive rock. This results in crystallisation which
gives granite its distinctive crystalline appearance.
Granite
is composed of feldspar, quartz, and mica and is usually
whitish or gray with a speckled appearance caused by the
darker crystals. Potash feldspar imparts a red or flesh
color to the rock. |
