DIY - Nano impregnation for roof tiles
Why to nano-coat roof tiles? Due to rain, UV radiation, frost and aggressive environmental influences, roof tiles lose their protective function over the years. When water is allowed to penetrate, frost damage, moss growth and unsightly discoloration occur. When roof tiles become porous it's time for a new impregnation with a durable nano coating!
When roof tiles are nano-coated, Nanotol forms microscopic structures on the surface that resemble that of a lotus leaf. Due to the special surface structure, dirt cannot adhere and water rolls off more easily. Moss formation is also largely ruled out, because mosses are no longer provided with a basis for growth.
Extends the durability of the tiles
Less expensive than a new roof covering
Visually enhances the roof
Nanotol Protector for mineral surfaces
different sizes
Suitable for
- Clay or concrete roof tiles
- Open-pored stone surfaces
- Cement, gypsum, plaster
A product for all water-absorbing mineral surfaces.
Nanotol roof tiles stay new for longer because dirt is repelled and discoloration does not appear.
Easy to apply
- No solvents, no odor
- Spray on the clean surface
- Allow to dry for 24 hours
- DONE
Coating with Nanotol Protector for mineral surfaces is quick and easy.
Water repellent
Rain rolls off again.
Nanotol penetrates deep into the pores of the surface and coats the inside of the stone pores with nanoparticles. Raindrops can therefore no longer penetrate and roll off easily through the slope of the roof.
invisible
No visual change of the surface.
Intelligent recoating of older roof tiles without changing the appearance of the roof.
AFFORDABLE
Extends the life span of the roof tiles.
The cost of impregnation with Nanotol is only about 10% of the cost of a new roofing and extends the life spanfor many years.
Protection from moss
Water can no longer penetrate the stone.
Dust and dirt lying on the surface can no longer enter the stone. Since the stone is not moist, moss growth is deprived its basis for life.
Nanotol Protector for mineral surfaces in various sizes
The Protector can be used universally on all open-pored stones and its mineral paint. The only prerequisite is that water can penetrate so that the nano-impregnation can get into the stone. Depending on the size of the surface to be impregnated, we therefore offer different sizes.
Depending on absorbency, sufficient for approx. 20 qm

How to nano-coat your roof tiles with Nanotol Protector for mineral surfaces
These steps are necessary
- Check the damage to the roof tiles. Replace loose or damaged tiles.
- Clean the roof tiles with a high-pressure cleaner and remove moss and dust.
- Allow the roof to dry completely.
- Spray Nanotol Protector for mineral surfaces evenly on the clean surface. Repeat this while the surface is still wet to reach any imperfections.
- Allow the nano-coating to dry and cure for 24 hours. During this time it should not rain.

How can I find out if Nanotol Protector for mineral surfaces is suitable for my surface?
There is a simple drop test to check this out:
- drop water on the surface you want to protect
- wait and see if the water can penetrate
- if the water does not penetrate on its own, you can apply a little pressure (sponge, cloth, brush).
If the surface has absorbed the water, then Nanotol Protector for mineral surfaces can also penetrate and attach itself. You can nano-coat your surface with Nanotol Protector for mineral surfaces.
Nanotol is not suitable if the water could not penetrate. There might be already a coating on the surface or the surface is closed, e.g. glazed, so it cannot absorb water. In this case, Nanotol, too, can not penetrate and would not work.
Nanotol Protector for mineral surfaces has been tested and certified
- It meets the requirements of the § 30 und 31 LFGB* and the European Regulation (EC) No.: 1935/2004.
* German Food, Article and Feed Law Book. The test confirms that surfaces coated with Nanotol do not emit any substances and are harmless in direct contact with foodstuffs.
Can you use Nanotol to seal a wall or floor, e.g. garage or terrace?
When a floor has been sealed, it is often meant that water can no longer penetrate afterwards. Colloquially, "sealing" in the construction industry is something different than, for example, impregnation. A sealed floor is then closed against the penetration of water.
Nanotol is not suitable for that!
Nanotol nano-coating penetrates deep into the stone and covers the inside of individual pores with nanoparticles. After drying, the nanoparticles remain and coat each individual pore of the stone from the inside.
- Rainwater runs off very easily when the stone is sloped.
- However, the surface remains breathable and dries quickly.
- Moss growth is reduced due to the lack of moisture.
- Moisture in masonry is reduced
- Mold growth is reduced.
BUT: If you want to completely prevent water from penetrating even when puddles form, you need a protective sealing layer and not a nano-coating.
General questions about Nanotol
How long does the Nanotol coating last on roof tiles?
Nanotol is only removed by abrasion. Without abrasion, the effect of the coating lasts at least 10 years. Abrasion is caused by wind and rain. On a side facing away from the weather, abrasion is less than on the side facing the weather. Therefore, a general statement about the duration of the effect cannot be made without further ado.

Is it possible to use this nano coating against water penetration?
No, Nanotol for mineral surfaces cannot be used against water penetration.
