Hi Guys,
I was hoping for some feedback on how others efficiently and effectively seal(impregnate) large square footage stone. On small areas, I always go hands and knees.
On large areas, I always worry it’s not doing as good a job.
Do you use white pads, bonnets? Do you wait till sealer dries or do you buff while wet? SCC solvent ot H20?
Thanks!
Jason

I used the uv cure acrylate epoxy. It is semi rigid. Squeezed it onto the edge chip, then wrapped it with clear tape on the side and arris, rubbed it with a popsicle stick on the side and along the arris, lengthwise, then put in the sun for 15 seconds, pulled the tape and shaved off the excess on the top of the tile. So I got 3 sides flat. Looks good and clear. Did 120 + chips in 5 hours.

Have you ever used "Last patch" polyurethane by Bonstone? Its supposed to be uv stable.

Problem is that I have the side and arris to do so I need something knife grade. AM told that even epoxy, if it is clear, can still yellow. Now I am leaning more towards a UV cure epoxy acrylate. I think the acrylates will not yellow (as most acrylics don’t) so I will just need to apply, wrap with clear tape and uv cure, pull tape. This is used for surfboard repair and it does not yellow, perfectly clear. Called Solarez. Goes off in 5 mins in the sun. Or I might use a thick CA, with an accelerator.

if its exterior you should use an exterior grade epoxy so the uv lighting will not affect it. (thats what I was told last year)..I did a granite cladding repair that had been damaged by skateboarder last year...it has held up well..pure epoxy will work better than polyester epoxy..btw, the trick i came up was put tape on the outside, then filled the hole with epoxy on a razor blade..when it hardened, i pulled the tape...it left a nice crisp fill, then i just rounded it off with a razor blade...fast and pretty simple repair..

thats what I would use, a clear epoxy.
I will be doing this job where the pictured greek marble will be used. It is very dense. There are chips on a lot of the edges and corners. They want it all removed by grinding but I told them I would need to patch the bigger chips, not going to be committed to grind so deep... It is exterior, so I need an epoxy rather than a polyester. Any suggestions for the glue? The chips are so small I was thinking about using the epoxy clear.
