SaniGLAZE® Restorative Bonding for Tile and Grout

The aesthetic appeal and performance of clean and attractive tile and grout is important to property owners, facility managers and building patrons.

Unfortunately, as dirt and soil are repeatedly ground into the pores of tile and grout surfaces the aesthetics are lost. Renewing the original look can be extremely difficult and sometimes impossible to accomplish.

In these situations, it seems the only way to get tile and grout to look as good as new is to rip everything out and replace it. This consumes a big chunk of the renovation budget, creates a project scheduling challenge and adds unnecessary debris to landfills.

There is a better solution…

Specify a SaniGLAZE restorative bonding process instead. SaniGLAZE processes are among the most versatile and effective methods available for the restoration, protection, and preservation of tile and grout surfaces. And the smart alternative to replacement.

With the SaniGLAZE program, facility managers, architects, specifiers, designers, and contractors may choose from a wide variety of tile and grout restoration options. Since every tile and grout project is different, the SaniGLAZE program offers a variety of processes that can be specified for any application or situation involving tile and grout.

Because of its versatility, the SaniGLAZE program is a value-engineered solution that meets the aesthetic needs and budgetary limitations of any restoration project.

Whether it’s keeping the original design quality of the tile and grout intact; maintaining a brighter, cleaner appearance; or achieving a completely new look by selecting one of the many color options – the SaniGLAZE program has a solution that works.

Since the inception of the SaniGLAZE program over 20 years ago, our cost-effective processes have been specified for thousands of projects covering several million square feet of tile and grout.

This guide provides a brief summary of SaniGLAZE processes and recommendations for their application.

Surface preparation is the foundation of all SaniGLAZE restorative bonding processes. Therefore, each SaniGLAZE process begins with a thorough emulsification and extraction of surface soils and embedded contaminants in addition to the removal of any previously applied seals or finishes. Surface prep is performed through a combination of mechanical and chemical steps using SaniGLAZE proprietary pre-prep and prep products. All SaniGLAZE products, whether pre-prep, prep, or coating products, are exclusively formulated and optimized for grout joints and/or tile surfaces.
