Poniente Color Water-Repellent Treatment - Renews Tone and Repels Water and Oil
Poniente: color water-repellent treatment for porous surfaces
A white or grey surface that has lost its tone, gets stained with oil and absorbs moisture can't be fixed by cleaning it. Poniente transforms it into a colored finish, chosen from four tones, while protecting it with water-, oil- and dirt-repellent properties, so the like-new look lasts far longer.

Four tones: Grey, Beige, Périgord and Anthracite Black.
Applied like paint: undiluted, with no special product preparation.

💡 Professional tip: the final tone isn't the one on the lid, it's the one your piece produces. On a dark grey substrate, beige barely shows, and on a very porous one the color comes out darker, so paint half a square meter in a corner first and judge it once dry, not fresh. And follow the right order: clean first, let dry for 24 hours, then treat; if you apply it to a damp piece or one with a limescale haze, you seal the stain under the color and it won't come out afterward. No direct sun and no rain forecast in the following 24 hours. Buy all the material at once, from the same batch: at 6-8 m² per liter, running short halfway through a wall shows.
Frequently Asked Questions
¿Qué colores hay?
Cuatro de catálogo: Gris, Beige, Périgord y Negro antracita. Además se pueden encargar colores a medida.
¿El color queda igual que la muestra?
No exactamente. El resultado depende del tono y la porosidad de la pieza, por eso hay que probar antes en una zona poco visible y juzgar el color ya seco.
¿Se puede quitar después?
El cambio de tono es permanente. Piensa bien el color antes de aplicarlo.
¿Cuánto rinde un litro?
Entre 6 y 8 metros cuadrados, según lo absorbente que sea el soporte.
¿Hay que diluirlo?
No, se aplica tal cual, como una pintura.
¿Se aplica antes o después de limpiar?
Después: primero limpiar, luego secar por completo y solo entonces tratar.
¿Qué es la eflorescencia y por qué sale?
Es el velo blanco de cal que aflora cuando el agua interna del hormigón arrastra sales a la superficie y se evapora. Es un proceso natural del cemento, no un defecto del material, y hay que eliminarla antes de aplicar el tratamiento.
¿Puedo aplicarlo a pleno sol o con lluvia prevista?
No. Evita el sol directo y asegúrate de tener 24 horas sin lluvia por delante.
