Data from the product description and technical documentation. Follow the current label for the supplied variant and confirm working conditions by a substrate trial.
Surface preparation
First test a small, inconspicuous area.
- Choose a trial area representing the brick, mortar and typical texture variations. Assess existing coatings, absorbency and appearance once the trial is fully dry. The documentation allows slight colour enhancement; consider this when defining the intended finish. Record the trial area and product quantity to estimate the full requirement.
- Remove deposits, dust and cleaning residues, then let the substrate dry completely. Protect glass, metal and plants. Apply the ready-to-use product undiluted, mainly by spraying; use an approved brush or roller on details. Monitor runs and ceramic absorption. Apply any second coat only wet-on-wet.

Maintenance and limitations
No single numerical service life is stated for all applications. Assess surface condition and retreatment needs according to use.
- Use on absorbent, unglazed ceramics. Do not apply over varnish, glaze or incompatible previous coatings. It does not replace joint repair, salt removal or waterproofing. Assess protection on a clean surface and adapt renewal to service conditions.
- The impregnation reduces water absorption and retains vapour permeability. It does not remove salts, consolidate crumbling bricks or replace waterproofing. Do not use on glaze, varnish or incompatible previous coatings. Check the current label for protection from water.
Storage and safety
- 3 years from the production date. Store in tightly closed original packaging in a dry, ventilated place. Protect from frost, overheating and access by children.
Read the current label and safety data sheet before use. Wear the required personal protective equipment. Do not mix with other products.

Planning your project with CEGŁA I CERAMIKA
Start by identifying the material, its finish and the result you want to achieve. The product information above sets out the intended use of CEGŁA I CERAMIKA. Check these details against your own surface before deciding on the treatment. A product intended for one material should not be assumed suitable for a different substrate simply because the two look similar.
Measure the area and inspect its condition before ordering. Existing coatings, dirt, uneven absorbency and previous treatments can affect preparation and application. Use a small, representative trial area to check compatibility, appearance and actual consumption. For a large project, compare several locations rather than relying on a single unusually smooth or sheltered patch.
Keep a record of the quantity used during the trial and the area treated. Where a consumption range is provided, use it as a planning guide and confirm it under the actual site conditions. Follow the stated application sequence; do not multiply a complete-treatment consumption figure by the number of coats unless the instructions explicitly require it.
Before applying CEGŁA I CERAMIKA, read the current product label and the linked technical documentation. Keep adjacent materials protected and arrange the work around the required weather and drying conditions. Inspect the result after the specified curing or drying period and plan routine maintenance according to the product’s limitations.
