AQUATRETE 220 Water-Borne Stain Resistant Additive

Fluorinated Stone Sealer (aqueous) AQUATRETE 220

Fluorochemical Urethane Additive for Tile Grout & Cementitious Systems

AQUATRETE 220 is a water-based stain resistant additive designed for tile grout applications to improve stain cleanability and surface resistance to common household/industrial soils. It is supplied as a stable aqueous system containing a fluorochemical urethane component, engineered for industrial/professional use in grout and related cementitious formulations.

Unlike low-density hollow extenders used mainly for lightweighting, GP-200 is selected for mechanical robustness and particle integrity, making it suitable for demanding construction environments such as industrial flooring, repair mortars, grouts, overlays, and protective cementitious coatings.
