3. Liquid Weather blends brickwork
Liquid Weather can be applied using a brush, sponge, cloth, roller, or low-pressure sprayer to brickwork, stone, concrete, or roof tiles. Its formulation offers a seamless blending solution for matching older masonry to new extensions or repaired brickwork. It can also give new bricks or tiles an immediate weathered, softer look. The product penetrates the surface microscopically, leaving the texture unchanged while creating a natural-looking darkened weathered effect. The colouration effect of Liquid Weather also has the flexibility to be adjusted to as light as required by simply diluting with water and gives consistent coverage. Following treatment, the surface is highly weather and wear resistant and will not need reapplication.
