Remmers Funcosil SE – Durable Facade Protection
Content: 30 liters
Lifespan: approx. 10 years
Remmers Funcosil SE is a cost-effective, water-repellent facade impregnation for porous mineral surfaces. It provides long-lasting protection against moisture, rain, and weathering while keeping the surface breathable. Funcosil SE is the more affordable variant of Funcosil WS, with a slightly lower active ingredient content, yet still delivers reliable protection for both new construction and renovation projects.
Applications
Funcosil SE is suitable for a wide range of porous mineral surfaces, including sand-lime brick, natural stone, brick masonry, mineral plaster layers, aerated concrete, and mineral wall paints. It is particularly effective for refreshing old, weathered, or previously water-repellent facades, extending the effect of prior treatments.
Properties
-
Solvent-free and odorless, safe for users
-
Improved and safe handling, free from harmful substances
-
Water-repellent yet vapor-permeable, keeping the facade breathable
-
UV, light, and weather-resistant
-
Highly durable, approx. 10 years of protection
-
Active ingredient content: approx. 7% (lower than Funcosil WS)
-
Reduces algae, moss, and mold growth
-
Extends the lifespan of existing mineral coatings and facades
Application
Apply Funcosil SE with a high-pressure flow pump and wide spray nozzle, creating a 30–50 cm liquid film across the facade. Move the nozzle along the wall and lightly smooth with a soft broom or brush. Apply wet-on-wet from top to bottom, treating continuous sections without interruption.
For smaller or complex areas, use a brush and dip regularly in the product to ensure complete coverage. Protect the facade from rain for at least 5 hours. Avoid strong wind or direct sunlight, as this can reduce penetration depth. Funcosil SE can also be applied to slightly damp surfaces.
Application Temperature
-
Apply at +10°C to +25°C
-
Avoid overheating the substrate
-
At temperatures below +10°C, water evaporates slowly; full water-repellent effect develops within 1–2 weeks
