Brick Dry — Masonry Protection Cream
Breathable, Waterproofing & Thermal-Enhancing Masonry Sealer
Product Overview
Brick Dry is a high-performance, breathable masonry protection cream formulated to create a durable water-repellent barrier within porous mineral substrates. Designed for external brickwork, stone, concrete and render, Brick Dry reduces moisture ingress, supports thermal efficiency, and preserves the natural appearance of masonry surfaces with a clear, non-film finish.
Key Features & Benefits
- Deep-Penetrating Waterproofing: Creates a robust, long-lasting hydrophobic barrier that resists moisture penetration.
- Improves Thermal Efficiency: Helps maintain dry masonry to reduce heat loss and support more stable internal temperatures.
- Breathable Formulation: Allows water vapour to escape naturally, preventing trapped moisture and internal damp.
- Crystal-Clear Finish: Dries invisible without altering colour, texture, or sheen of treated surfaces.
- Water-Based & Low VOC: Lower odour, easier handling, and safer for use around occupied spaces.
- Easy Application: Suitable for brush, roller, or low-pressure spray; typically one coat is sufficient.
- Long-Term Surface Protection: Helps resist efflorescence, algae, moss and driving rain.
Typical Applications
Ideal for external protection of:
✔ Brick, stone, concrete and render
✔ New builds, renovations, heritage and period properties
