This product features advanced microband protection and can be used for interiors as well as exteriors. Before using, allow new grout installations to cure for a minimum of 72 hours. Make sure surfaces are clean, free of any waxes or cleaners, and retain a surface temperature of 50-80 degrees. Here's how to apply sealer: liberally apply an even coat using a paint pad, roller, brush or low-pressure sprayer. Allow sealer to penetrate the surface for 10-15 minutes. During this time, keep the surface wet with sealer, adding more sealer as needed. Do not let sealer dry completely on surface. A second coat may be needed for porous, absorbent surfaces. If a second coat is required, it should be applied 30-40 minutes after the initial application. Following the final application, thoroughly wipe dry the entire surface with clean absorbent towels. Should a sealer residue appear, rewet the impacted section of the surface with sealer. Agitate the surface with a white nylon scrubbing pad to loosen residue and wipe dry with a clean, absorbent towel. A full cure is achieved in 24-72 hours. Use of the treated surface may resume in 6-8 hours. DuPont Aerosol Grout Spray Used on: sanded and unsanded groutDuPont Advanced Grout Sealer is a product that protects grout from stains and keeps it looking brand new. It can be used for grout on natural stone, ceramic, and porcelain tile. For new installations, product may be applied within 2 hours of grouting! Although, for best results we recommend you wait 4 hours or more. For cured installations, grout must be clean, dry, and free of sealers and coatings. To use sealer, hold can 10 to 16 inches from the grout surface and spray evenly along grout line. After 10 to 15 minutes, wipe the entire surface with a dry cloth to remove any excess sealer. A second coat is recommended and may be applied within one hour of first coat. Traffic may begin 2 hours after application on cured grout. For newly installed grout, follow grout manufacturer's guidance.
