Concrete Shield NS – Nanosilica Concrete Sealer & Surface Protection

Concrete Shield NS is a nanosilica-based concrete sealer that seals, protects and strengthens both polished and untreated concrete floors. The product penetrates deep into the concrete matrix, forming a permanent, mineral-based protection that makes the surface more resistant to moisture, staining, chemicals and abrasion.

Concrete Shield NS is used as the final treatment in professional polished concrete systems, delivering a harder, denser and easier-to-clean surface – without creating a plastic film or risking peeling.

Key Benefits

• Protects against oil, water and chemicals
• Stain resistant – easy to clean
• Natural matte finish – no plastic sheen
• Diffusion-open – lets concrete breathe
• UV-stable – no yellowing over time
• No film formation – no risk of peeling or flaking
• Works on polished and unpolished concrete
• Ideal as a final step in polished concrete systems

Concrete Shield NS and DOI – Achieving a High-Gloss Polished Concrete Finish

Distinctness of Image (DOI) is the key metric for polished concrete quality – it measures how sharply and clearly the floor reflects objects. A high DOI means a mirror-like, premium finish. A low DOI means a dull, diffuse surface.

Concrete Shield NS plays a critical role in maximising DOI as the final treatment in a polished concrete system:

• Seals micro-pores – eliminates surface irregularities that scatter and diffuse light
• Enhances surface density – creates a harder, more uniform reflective layer
• Reduces surface contamination – stain resistance keeps the floor cleaner, maintaining DOI over time
• No film haze – unlike acrylic sealers, Concrete Shield NS does not create a cloudy film that reduces clarity
• Compatible with all polishing grits – apply after final polishing pass for maximum effect

For best results: Apply Concrete Densifier NS first to harden and densify the concrete, then apply Concrete Shield NS as the final sealing step. This two-step system maximises both surface hardness and DOI.

Ideal For

• Polished concrete – final sealing step
• Garage floors and driveways
• Industrial and warehouse floors
• Workshops exposed to oil and chemicals
• Retail and commercial floors
• Agricultural facilities

How to Apply Concrete Shield NS

1. Ensure the surface is clean and dry.
2. For polished concrete: apply after the final polishing pass.
3. Apply Concrete Shield NS with a sprayer or roller.
4. Allow to penetrate for 10–15 minutes.
5. Wipe off any excess – no rinsing required.

Coverage

50–100 m² per 5L unit depending on concrete porosity and surface finish.
