CRAKGON solves moisture related problems

  • October 6, 2010

CRAKGON® conquers Portugal!

In the first of a series of case studies on CRAKGON® we will allow you to explore the product and it’s unique surface repair capabilities. There truly is nothing like it.

Simply paint it on and the cracks are gone!

CRAKGON® Case study no. 1.

Moisture related problems:

150 mouldy South Portugese Hotel doors need replacing or…..

Here are the facts:

  • A South Portugal Hotel owner had 150 doors in need of replacement.
  • The bottom of the doors were left unsealed, had absorbed moisture from the air, expanded and deteriorated dramatically.
  • As you can imagine replacing and painting 150 doors is not a cheap exercise.
  • The owner was receptive to alternate solutions.

CRAKGON® was presented as an economic, alternate solution

  • The ability of CRAKGON® to provide a moisture proof seal to the timber while still allowing the doors to breathe solved the problem
  • The owner employed a painter to sand the doors back, paint the CRAKGON onto the door surface, (bottom and top) and apply a top coat.

One application of CRAKGON® and paint, problem solved permanently!
