Frequently Asked Questions
- On which kinds of floor can the antiSLIP® system be applied?
- On all hard, glazed and unglazed tiled floors.
- Natural stone (marble, granite, bluestone, basalt, etc.). Always test a small area first.
- As a result of its complex composition, natural stone is not always suitable for the antiSLIPsystem®.
- Cement floors.
- Porcelain bathtubs.
- Can it also be used on wood, linoleum/vinyl or a coated concrete/epoxy floor?
- No, these floors cannot be treated with the antiSLIPsystem®. Gritplates, on the other hand, can be used on these floors.
- Can the gloss disappear?
- In some cases, the gloss may fade slightly, although the tile's original aspect will not be affected.
- How do I maintain a treated floor?
- Soap cleaning products, coatings, impregnating products, wax, polymers and crystallization materials have an negative effect on the antiSLIPsystem®. One could use an alcohol based cleanser.
- My floor has a white haze after being treated. Is there anything I can do?
- We call this the "whitening effect". This particularly occurs on darker floors and will disappear within 14 days if the floor is cleaned regularly.
- Is the antiSLIPsystem® resistant to chlorine, road salt and urine?
- Yes. These substances do not harm the system.
- Can I use a high-pressure hose to clean a treated patio?
- Yes, but do not hold the water jet too close to the tiles, because this may not only affect the antiSLIPsystem®, but also your tiles.
- Can I use the antiSLIPsystem® in my bathtub or shower basin?
- It can be used in porcelain bathtubs. Unfortunately, it cannot be used in plastic bathtubs. For plastic bathtubs, you can use our aquatape, which has been specially developed for this use.
