HG Terracotta Protector is an alternative to HG Terracotta Wax which gives Terracotta tiles a shining finish and protects the floor against the deep penetration of dirt and stains. The coating of HG Terracotta Shine Seal is very durable, easy to maintain (does not require regular buffing) and is impervious to most household chemicals. If the floor is porous this will need to be treated first with HG Impregnating Protector to reduce its porosity and to ensure a good base to sustain the HG Terracotta Protector. For regular maintenance cleaning of a floor treated with HG Terracotta Protector use HG Terracotta Cleaner Shine Restorer which both cleans and extends the life of the finish. HG Terracotta Protector is easy to remove when necessary with HG Terracotta Cleaner Extra Strong.
