THE FORMULATION OF REPAIR GUARD

Studying ancient construction materials led us to the development of Repair Guard. Our formulation is a modern twist on what was used in ancient Greece. Calcium nanoparticles are perfectly balanced in a water-based suspension formula to enhance the mechanical properties of worn building materials.

Repair Guard has been used to protect the Parthenon and other historical sites, further stabilizing worn substrates, removing efflorescence, even preventing rusting & yellowing of marble surfaces. Slide to see the results of a limestone-treated aging test below.

REPAIR GUARD TREATED LIMESTONE

UNTREATED LIMESTONE EFFLORESCENCE

We’ve put Repair Guard to the test with a cored limestone aging test.

Lab-tested and proven to protect a variety of stone surfaces, Repair Guard is the best choice to preserve and protect deteriorating surfaces.

The aging test in a lab exposes the cored substrate (in this example, a cored section of limestone) to humidity, moisture, wind and UV radiation to simulate the passage of time and its effects on the same substrate.

Each cycle of the aging test is the approximate equivalent to a year’s worth of exposure.

Repair Guard holds up. Compared to the untreated cores, the Repair Guard-protected limestone maintains its shape and structure easily!
