Microshield Ultra allows the building to breathe, therefore helping to alleviate condensation build up. This advanced masonry sealer will ensure a long-lasting waterproofing solution to brickwork that is exhibiting signs of penetrating damp. The SmartSeal Masonry Cream solution enabled us to weatherproof the 100 year old bricks on an unusual sculpture and place it safely in our lake at 'Corby Sculpture Park' - thank you for an excellent product. If you have any questions around waterproofing building facades or water repellents then our expert team is waiting to help. We looked at the ingredients and the performance of both products in our tests, and we feel they are very similar.

It is supplied in the form of a deeply penetrating cream that is applied to the wall surface using a roller or brush. The beading effect lasts between 2-3 years depending on the substrate condition and exposure to weather conditions. I snapped a treated brick in half after 28 days and tested the exposed surface – Everbuild appeared to penetrate to a depth of 3mm. We also weighed a brick, coated it in Stormdry and left it outside on a rainy day; when we weighed it again, the weight was the same – indicating it hadn’t absorbed much water, if any. Microshield Ultra’s cream consistency means that it stays in contact longer with the substrate without run off, allowing for deep penetration.

Quite expensive but like everything you only get what you pay for and trust it will be money well spent. It makes the surface easier to clean, enhances the value of the property and prevents common structural issues.As no new rainwater can penetrate the exterior surface, the wall will eventually dry out which in turn will increase the internal surface temperature of the wall and lower the risk of condensation forming.
