1. How is FILA HYDROREP ECO different from a standard sealer?
Most sealers coat the surface and block everything, including moisture trying to escape from within the material. FILA HYDROREP ECO penetrates the substrate and repels water from outside while still allowing the surface to breathe, which matters on older or porous materials where trapped moisture causes its own problems.
2. Will it change the look of my surface?
No visible change to colour or finish is the intention. The product leaves a natural appearance once dry, so treated and untreated areas should look the same.
3. Does it stop mould and algae from growing?
It makes conditions harder for biological growth to establish by reducing the moisture that algae, mould, and lichen rely on. It is not a biocide, but consistent water repellency goes a long way toward keeping surfaces cleaner over time.
4. What surfaces can it be used on?
It covers a broad range of unpolished, porous exterior materials, including stone, concrete, terracotta, exposed brick, quarry tiles, plaster, and tuff.
5. How long does protection last?
Longevity depends on the surface type, exposure level, and local climate. Highly weathered or frequently wet areas may need reapplication sooner. Checking the surface periodically by watching how water behaves on it is a practical way to judge when a top-up is due.
