Stain Repellent Nano 1 Liter

This is quite simply the best stone sealer made. I have a white marble counter top in a semi-matte finish. In short, it was like a sponge for stains. Tests I performed showed that oil and wine could stain it permanently within mere seconds of exposure. I tried several sealers, including the Dupont Stone Tech and 511 and Aquamix brands and found them to be utterly useless. There is only one other sealer I could find that offers comparable performance to the Akemi Nano: Tenax Ager (not their other varieties however). The Tenax Ager has only one problem, it is a stone darkener which is fine if you want to enhance the pattern of a darker stone but not ideal for white marble, which can gain a slight brownish tint with application. The Akemi did not alter my stone's color whatsoever and guards it effectively from staining. I applied it by saturating the surface with as much of the Akemi as it would take, letting it soak in for several minutes. If it absorbed the sealer fully in areas I would apply more. Then after a few minutes I wiped off the excess. After a day I repeated the treatment using the same process, so my countertops are fairly saturated with the stuff. Had Thanksgiving months back at my place during which my countertop was subjected to abuse (people spilling wine and greasy gravy on it). I escaped that episode without any stains and have since been stain free. I really think this is remarkable stuff. The Tenax Ager too is incredible, but like I said alters the color. If I ever get a darker counter top I would certainly also consider using the Tenax Ager. But you absolutely can't go wrong with the Akemi Nano. It blows those other products I mentioned out of the water.

easy to apply; for my small kitchen the amount in a 1 liter bottle is way more than I needed as only a quite thin coating need be applied (two coats recommended, the second applied while the first coat is still wet); I wish they sold smaller sizes as the price is high, but the product is easy to apply and seems to work well. I noticed no real change in color or appearance after I applied it to white granite. There is some smell but not as bad as some chemicals I have used (I have no comparison to similar products), but I would suggest a mask and rubber gloves. It did irritate my eyes a bit, but when I had adequate ventilation with fans it had less effect.

This was recommended by our installer after we had some quartzite counters installed. He left me a small remnant so I did some testing prior to using. I compared it to dupont bullet proof which I normally use. The result is unbelievable. The Akemi completely sealed the surface against any type of stain. I tested water, red wine, oil, and tomato sauce. All the items just beaded up on the surface and were easy to wipe off. Nothing penetrated the stone. The dupont bullet proof did not do so well with the oil. The akemi was easy to apply and did not change the character of the stone. I am still amazed how everything now beads up on the surface of the stone. I was also going to use this on my marble backsplash. I did a sample test because I was worried about the grout. The product changed the color of the grout on my test piece. I would recommend you do a test before using it on grout. I ended up using the bulletproof on the backsplash because it did not discolor the grout.

works good, smell isn't to bad

So far, I am very pleased with this product. I just moved into a new house, and have a great deal of remodeling to do. I treated all of the black beauty granite counters with this right away, and they have withstood a great deal of abuse from the sanding and painting of walls, which left messes which had to be cleaned off. The counters still shine and look fabulous, and even when I have to wipe dust and grit off of them, I see no signs of scratching. In the kitchen, which has dealt with a great many messes lately, there has been no staining at all, and believe me, that counter has been baptized with Teriyaki to spaghetti sauce, and everything in between, including dollops of Best Foods, something that used to give me nightmares in my old house. My heart almost stopped when a jar of coconut oil overturned, as the heat had reduced it to a liquid state. The clean up was horrendous, but the Nano protected my black beauties. That alone is worth 6 stars. I had tried several different treatments in my old house, and the ones that did work, and that was far too few, tended to darken the granite. Since I now have black counter-tops, with lovely flecks of iridescent blue and grey in them, I wanted to avoid this outcome, and was happy to see that the Akemi Nano did not darken them at all.

I got new quartzite countertops, one year ago. Shortly after they were installed, I started getting water spots. I had a professional come look at them and at the removing the spots, they told me to use this product for maintenance. So far it has held up fabulous. It’s easy to apply, which is a huge bonus. Any time Water gets on the surface it beads up until I dry it off.

Have a patio going in made of Buffalo Stone so I took the trouble to buy and test some sealers with the hope I could find a way to prevent staining from dropped food and drink. Bought: 511 Porous Plus, StoneTech Bulletproof Sealer, StoneTech Heavy Duty Sealer, Akemi Nano-Effect Stain Repellant, Akemi Super Stain Repellent and AquaMix Penetrating Sealer. Soaked samples of stone in each and let cure for a day. Put a drop each of red wine, balsamic vinegar and olive oil. Let it sit 5min and washed. Results: 511 Porous Plus and Akemi Nano-Effect had no staining Akemi Super Stain Repellent and Aquamix penetrating Sealer both had slight staining StoneTeck Bulletproof and Stonetech Sealer had significant staining. A few days later did it again on the same stones to see if double coating made a difference: NOPE But since longer stain time could stain in even the best, I did another test: double coat 511 Porous Plus separated by 15min followed by a coat of 511 Mira Matte while it was still uncured (VERY important apparantly). Success! And now it resists ground-in dirt too.

Best stain guard for my honed quartzite kitchen counters that I've found so far. Water (and other substances) bead up, don't penetrate or leave stains. Wipe off easily. Even red wine and fruit don't leave marks. Note: smells strongly and I doubt it's good to inhale, so apply with windows open, even a fan.

Sehr, sehr gutes Versiegelungsprodukt. Funktioniert perfekt. 1 mal jährlich auf Flächen im Aussenbereich. Wasser, Fett, Öl, alles perlt perfekte auf dem Naturstein. Keine Fettflecken mehr auf dem Natursteintisch. Einfach ein wunderprodukt. Benutze es bereits seit Jahren. Immer zufrieden 👍

Superb and easy to use. Lasted nearly ten years on our granite worktop before needing to reapplied

Produit d'entretien du granit efficace.

Ich benutze AKEMI Anti-Fleck Nano-Effect zur Pflege unserer Naturstein-Küchenarbeitsplatte (Nero Assoluto Leather). Mit einem fusselfreien Baumwolltuch aufgetragen und nach Abtrocknung mit einem weichen Microfasertuch nachreiben. Das Ergebnis ist top! Die Arbeitsplatte bleibt schön matt und behält ihren "Ledereffekt". Die Imprägnierung ist sehr gut! Einmal im Monat angewendet bleibt die Arbeitsplatte wie neu. Ein sehr gutes, wenn auch teures Produkt.

Ein hervorragendes Pflegeprodukt für unsere polierten Solbänke, die dadurch wie neu bleiben, Wasser abweisen, sich leicht putzen lassen und atmungsaktiv versiegelt bleiben!
