Tenax Ager Color-Enhancing Impregnating Sealer – 1 Quart, Solvent-based
The Tenax Ager Color-Enhancing Impregnating Sealer in the 1 Quart container is a solvent-based impregnator that deepens the color and grain of natural stone and seals it against liquid absorption in the same application.
Key Features
- One product does two jobs: it impregnates against liquid absorption and revives color and grain.
- 1 Quart container, the working size between the 250 ml sample can and the 5 Liter bulk container in Tenax's Ager ladder.
- Published by Tenax for marble, granite, limestone, sandstone, quartzite, travertine and agglomerate.
- Anti-graffiti, per Tenax's published properties for the line.
- Tenax states Ager gives no anti-etch protection on marble.
Who Is This For?
Countertop shops and stone masons finishing honed or flamed material that looks flat until it is enhanced, and installers sealing dark granite where the customer wants the wet look kept permanently. A quart is the size a shop opens for a job rather than for a test.
What This Is Not For
Ager is the general-purpose enhancer, so it is the wrong pick at the two ends of the range: on dense exotic granite and on exposed edges Tenax formulates Ager Tiger, and where the countertop needs food-contact certification the food-safe product is the Tenax Ager FS Color Enhancing Stone Sealer. It also gives no anti-etch protection on marble.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much stone will a quart of Ager cover?
Tenax publishes no coverage rate for Ager in the sources on file. Coverage of a solvent-based impregnator varies with the porosity and finish of the stone, so test on an offcut before pricing a job.
Is Ager the same product as Ager Tiger?
They are two products in one line. Tenax Ager is published for marble, granite, limestone, sandstone, quartzite, travertine and agglomerate; Ager Tiger is the deeper-penetrating version formulated for exotic natural granite and for edges.
Can Ager be used on a food-preparation surface?
The food-safe product in this line is Tenax Ager FS, which is certified for food contact under European regulation 90/128 EEC. Standard Ager carries no such certification in the published data.
Does it protect marble against etching?
Tenax states that Ager gives no anti-etch protection on marble. Impregnating sealers resist staining, not acid damage.
