LTP Colour Enhancer
First Coat Application
LTP Colour Enhancer
Second Coat Application

Many of the other samples had a stage photograph taken one week after initial application. For complicated reasions involving lack of time, necessity to help with care of grandchildren, and general incompetence, this product was accidentally missed out.

After 1 week
Result after 10 months (March 2016)
September 2016
Result after 14 months - end of trial - September 2016

Summary:

Application:

1st coat: Thin, watery milk-like liquid which dries very quickly

2nd coat: +1:18 hrs Struggled to bond. Most runs off

Comments:

It wouldn't be fair to say the LTP Colour Enhancer had no visual impact on the stone, but then, it wouldn't be fair to say it had actually enhanced the colour.

The sealant can actually be seen, just about, and it has certainly kept the stone comparatively clean, but claiming it has 'enhanced' the colour is stretching it just a bit.

Still, if it can keep the stains at bay too......

Stain Trials:

stain application
Application of stains
stain after 4 hrs
Stains after 4 hours
wash off stain
Wash off stain with proprietary cleaner after 24 hrs
apply mosskiller
Apply mosskiller after wash-off
stain after cleaning
Stain 48 hrs after washing-off mosskiller and cleaning with proprietary cleaner

Comments:

Not brilliant, is it?

The best that can be said is that the mosskiller had little impact, but the four main stains are all still there, to greater of lesser degrees.

Still, it's sold as a Colour Enhancer, not a stain protector, so pay attention to the names manufacturers use. Caveat Emptor, as they say!

Note: Any apparent variation in colour of the flagstone is due solely to changes in the condition of the natural daylight at the time the photograph was taken.

Other than cropping to exclude extraneous background and adding a drop shadow to the cropped image, there has been NO post-processing of the original photographs.
