Premium Crystallizer is a single step, spray and buff liquid, formulated to produce a high polish on polished terrazzo, serpentine and marble floors. Utilized with #0 grade steel wool pads, crystallization will bring a higher level of polish to an already polished marble floor, while at the same time slightly increasing the hardness of the marble to improve wear resistance. On polished terrazzo, crystallizer helps to even out the differences in the level of polish between the marble chip and the cement matrix producing a uniform polished appearance. The special polymers in this product also make it suitable for use on granite in conjunction with Granite Polish to rejuvenate traffic areas on granite floors. Used separately on polished granite, the polish can be significantly improved and color enhanced.

Optima Impregnator SBOptima Impregnator SB uses the latest fluorinated copolymer technology in a glycolic solvent base, to provide efficient stain protection against oil, grease, solvent and water borne contaminants. It can be applied to all types of natural stone, terrazzo, porous ceramic tile and cementitious materials. Suitable for use on both interior and exterior applications, Optima Impregnator SB renders the treated stone more chemical resistant and does not affect the ability of the stone to transpire vapor, thus allowing the stone to "breathe".
In most cases, the original color of the stone remains unchanged, but as with any impregnator, it is highly recommended that a test area be treated in order to ascertain that any potential change is acceptable prior to universal application. Impregnator SB is easily applied and cures quickly within one hour, under normal
conditions. Two hours after application, it is possible to resume normal maintenance.
After treating the stone with Optima Impregnator SB, the stone’s surface has a surface protection which is completely invisible. Physical abrasion and strong solvents will diminish the efficacy of the protection and it is recommended that the impregnator be re-applied on an annual basis, especially in exterior applications.

Optima Impregnator WB is a water based emulsion of silane, siloxane and fluorinated copolymers providing invisible, double protection against oil and water based contaminants on the surface, while at the same time providing a barrier against moisture rising from a damp substrate. Rising dampness is the major cause of efflorescence. It can be applied to all types of natural stone, terrazzo, porous ceramic tile, concrete and cement based materials. Being water based, the surface does not have to be completely dry prior to application. Optima Impregnator WB is a particularly effective protection against freeze/thaw cycle damage on exterior applications of porous stone in regions subject to frost. In most cases, the original color of the stone remains unchanged, but as with any impregnator, it is highly recommended that a test area be treated in order to ascertain that any potential color change is acceptable prior to universal application. Physical abrasion and strong alkaline cleaners will diminish the efficacy of the protection and it is recommended that the impregnator be re-applied on an annual basis, especially in external applications.

Optima Stone Color Enhancer is a blend of resins and waxes in a refined solvent base that provides stain protection and waterproofing, while enhancing the natural color of the stone. No topical film is formed because the solvent carrier facilitates impregnation into the pore structure, resulting in the "wet look" appearance and preserving the stone’s moisture permeability, thus allowing it to "breathe". This film free surface also inhibits soiling. Optima stone color enhancer can be used on polished material, but it is particularly effective when used on flamed or mechanically textured granite, slate or antique marble. Being UV resistant, the stone will not yellow despite heavy applications, which are sometimes necessary to develop deeper tones. The color enhancing effect will diminish over time due to the repeated use of maintenance products or exposure to strong light. To maintain the desired color intensity, periodic repeat applications will be necessary, particularly in exterior applications. Performance Features User Benefits
Optima Stone Color Enhancer
• Produces rich color tones in textured stone
• Will not form a topical film

Optima Stone Soap (Floor Cleaner & Conditioner)
Stone Soap is a unique combination of natural fatty acids and oils which react with the calcium present in many stone floors to form an insoluble, dirt repellant barrier. This barrier temporarily prevents water borne dirt from penetrating the pores of the stone and facilitates daily maintenance. Grout lines are also cleaned and protected by cleaner & conditioner. Suitable for use on all types of natural stone and is particularly effective on porous man made stone such as terrazzo and concrete. Stone Soap is only a mild cleaner and does not contain sequestering agents. If the floor becomes heavily soiled, use Optima Deep Stone Cleaner first and then revert back to daily use of Stone Soap. Regular use will enrich the patina of the stone and optional buffing will increase the shine. In areas of very hard water, it will be necessary to increase the concentration of Stone Soap in the solution.
