    Where to use RAINCARE SWR: solvent based water repellent for dense surfaces

    RAINCARE SWR is a solvent based water repellent, a silicone product made for direct application on concrete, masonry and natural stone. You do not dilute it. It is applied by brush or low-pressure spray, flooding the surface generously so the solvent carrier takes the repellent deep into dense material.

    • Dense Concrete Surfaces

      Solvent carrier takes the silicone deep into dense concrete.

    • Natural Stone Facades

      Flood the stone generously and allow 5–10 minutes for penetration.

    • Granite & Marble Exterior

      Applied directly from the container by brush or low-pressure spray.

    • Dense Brick Surfaces

      Second coat goes on while the first is still wet.

    • Pre-cast Concrete Cladding

      Wipe run-downs or drips off glass and metal immediately.

    • Industrial & Commercial Facades

      Complies with BS 3826-1969 Class A & Class B.

    As a water repellent for dense concrete and stone, RAINCARE SWR complies with BS 3826-1969 Class A & Class B. The surface must be clean and completely dry. Flood it generously, allow 5–10 minutes for penetration, then apply the second coat wet-on-wet. This deep penetrating water repellent needs a minimum of 24–48 hours of curing before rainfall. Remove any run-downs or drips on glass or metal immediately.

    Armstrong Chemicals supplies RAINCARE SWR to sites across Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Kerala and Tamil Nadu, including Hyderabad, Vijayawada, Bengaluru, Kochi and Chennai.

    Why RAINCARE SWR works

    • Solvent carrier

      The solvent carrier takes the silicone deep into dense concrete, masonry and natural stone.

    • No dilution needed

      It is applied straight from the container, so there is no mixing step on site and nothing to measure.

    • Complies with BS 3826-1969

      It complies with BS 3826-1969 Class A & Class B, which gives specifiers a recognised reference for the repellent.
