Imagine invisible protection that can keep out up to 95% of dirt and 98% of moss, lichen and fungi from absorbent materials such as stone, concrete, clinker or terracotta – for up to 10 years*.
Nanoflex® AG 1-4 creates an ultra-thin breathable 3D network on the substrate surface, which permanently keeps water and dirt out of the pore system. Coated materials can thus increase resistance to freeze-thaw testing by a factor of 3 (EN 1338) and remain clean for over a decade.
Its water and dirt repellent properties on all mineral and absorbent surfaces additionally increases the range of applications to the area of monument protection and sand.
The strong chemical bond to the OH groups of the surfaces ensures exceptional permanence in terms of weather resistance, as well as mechanical and chemical resistance.
Nanoflex® AG 1-4 is part of the INTELLIGENT HYBRIDS® concept of Nano-Care Deutschland AG due to the intelligent arrangement of hybrid (organic and inorganic) structures.
It should be noted that the initially strong beading effect may weaken after a few years due to the superimposition of very fine dust particles. However, the protection is in no way impaired by this.

Temperature sensitivity: |
1°C to 30°C
|
Consumption: |
80 – 150 ml/m2 |
Application: |
The coating liquid is applied to the surface by standard pump spray systems. If the substrate cannot absorb the liquid immediately, the use of a paint roller is recommended to ensure uniform wetting. The coating is stable to water after approx. 6 hours and fully cured after 24 hours. The product can also be applied after deep hydrophobic treatment of the surface by Nanoflex® Infusion. The pretreatment should be allowed to flash off for 5 days before Nanoflex® AG 1-4 is used as top coat. |
Nanoflex® AG 1-4 is additionally available in the quality grades VP 172 and AG. These formulations contain a lower (VP 172) or higher (AG) proportion of active components. The product is water-based and not a dangerous good according to ADR and IATA. It can also be shipped as a liquid concentrate (Nanoflex® Concentrate SP).
For handling Nanoflex® AG 1-4, please refer to the corresponding safety data sheet.

The high-performance product penetrates deeply into absorbent mineral substrates such as stones, concrete, clinker or terracotta and protects against hydrostatic pressure and rising water.
Nanoflex® Infusion creates an ultra-thin breathable 3D network in the depth of the pore system, which permanently keeps out pressing water, and is thus certified according to DIN EN 1504 – 2.
Its water- and dirt-repellent properties on all mineral and absorbent surfaces additionally increase the range of applications to the area of monument protection.
Due to the strong chemical bond to the pore system of the surfaces, an extraordinary permanence in terms of weather resistance as well as mechanical and chemical resistance is guaranteed.
Nanoflex® Infusion is part of the INTELLIGENT HYBRIDS® concept of Nano-Care Deutschland AG due to the intelligent arrangement of hybrid (organic and inorganic) structures.

For handling Nanoflex® Infusion, please refer to the associated safety data sheet.
The AG System Coat application system consists of a permanent protective layer which prevents paint particles from penetrating into the pore system of the mineral surface. It also keeps out over 95% of soiling and 98% of mosses, lichens and fungi from absorbent materials such as stones, concrete, clinker or terracotta – for a period of up to 10 years*.
Nanoflex® AG System Coat creates an ultra-thin breathable 3D network on the substrate surface, which permanently keeps water and dirt out of the pore system. Coated materials can thus increase the resistance in the freeze-thaw test by a factor of 3 (EN 1338) and remain clean for over a decade.
Its water and dirt repellent properties on all mineral and absorbent surfaces additionally increases the range of applications to the area of monument protection and sand.
The strong chemical bond to the OH groups of the surfaces ensures extraordinary permanence in terms of weather resistance as well as mechanical and chemical resistance.
The graffiti remover Nanoflex® AG System Clean, which is adjusted to the formulation, allows a residue-free removal of graffiti over 10 cleaning cycles.
Nanoflex® AG System is part of the INTELLIGENT HYBRIDS® concept of Nano-Care Deutschland AG due to the intelligent arrangement of hybrid (organic and inorganic) structures.
