Long-Lasting Protection for Your Old Brick and Natural Stone Buildings: Prevent Dusting with Restora Fix
Long-Lasting Protection for Your Old Brick and Natural Stone Structures with Restora Fix
Our historic buildings struggle to stand as silent witnesses to the past, while also battling the ravages of time. One of the most common and dangerous symptoms of this struggle is dusting. Dusting, which occurs when stone or brick loses its structural integrity and falls away from the surface in the form of a fine dust, consumes the structure from within. Fortunately, modern restoration technology offers a long-lasting solution to this problem.

What is Dusting and Why is it Dangerous?
Dusting is the weakening or destruction of binding mineral fibers, resulting in stone and brick surfaces losing their resistance to abrasion and fragmentation. This process leads to structural weakening, aesthetic deterioration, and ultimately, irreversible damage. Dusting is often caused by factors such as freeze-thaw cycles, salt crystallization, humidity, and pollution.

Restora Fix: Effective Solution to Dust
Restora Fix is a silicate-based chemical consolidation product. It's not just a surface coating, but a structural strengthener. Thanks to its liquid form, Restora Fix penetrates deeply into the pores of the powdered material. There, it chemically reacts with the silicate structure, the material's primary component, forming new and extremely strong silicate bonds. It reunites weakened stone or brick from the inside. Just like applying a cast to a broken bone, it stabilizes the powdered surface and restores it to its original hardness. This structure provides long-lasting protection by preventing further wear and tear on the surface.
Restora Fix doesn't form a film, preventing moisture from escaping in the structure as vapor. Because moisture isn't trapped, secondary damage such as swelling, cracking, salt buildup, and mold growth are prevented. Because the product doesn't form a layer on the surface, the natural texture and color of the stone or brick are preserved. No artificial appearance is created after the restoration. As a solvent-free, mineral-based product, Restora Fix is safe for both the user and the environment, and it is fireproof.
Restora Fix provides structural support for historical structures. By resolving dust accumulation issues, it offers the opportunity to preserve these valuable brick and natural stone structures, which form our cultural heritage, in their original state for the future.
