Mapei introduces new UltraCare Finish protective waxes

Back

February 4, 2025

Mapei has introduced two new protective wax finishes to its UltraCare range. New UltraCare Finish Opaca has a matt finish, whilst UltraCare Finish Lucida has a glossy finish. Both treatments create a wear and stain resistant finish and can be applied to all types of unpolished natural stone installed indoors.

Each of the new UltraCare Finish liquid waxes provides protection against a wide range of stains, including grease, oil, acid-based stains from lemon, vinegar, cola and other acidic liquids, alcoholic drinks and ink stains. Developed for a quick, easy and even application, the treatments are applied neat with a fleece or cloth after application of an UltraCare impregnator. A second coat is recommended, applied in a cross-ways direction – and with a 1-2 hour interval between each application -to avoid pinholes and ensure complete coverage. Once dry, both waxes can be buffed and, in the case of Opaca, this can be carried out to achieve a satin-type finish. To maintain tile lustre, both waxes can be diluted with water and applied periodically, after maintenance with UltraCare Multicleaner.

Both UltraCare Finish Opaca and Lucida are suitable for terracotta, stone, unpolished marble and recomposed tiles. The wax treatments do not retain dirt and promote easy removal of residues. As well as providing high wear protection, polymers and waxes within the finishes also provide superior transparency, elasticity and reduced slipperiness.

The Mapei UltraCare series includes cleaners and protectors for use on all types of tile and stone and suitable for professional and end-user application. Many also feature throughout Mapei UK’s Zero Line* – a series of low environmental impact products that provide safe and sustainable high-performance solutions with CO2 fully offset in the entire life cycle.
