TSSPro100 Sealant Protects Dense Stone Surfaces

When the goal is to keep dense stone surfaces beautiful and strong for years, TSSPro100 sealant protects like nothing else on the market. This solvent-based penetrating sealer is engineered specifically for hard, low-porosity stones such as flagstone, slate, and travertine. It works by soaking deep into the stone’s pores and locking out water, stains, and environmental damage, all while preserving the natural texture and color of the material. Many contractors call it one of the most reliable products they use, with performance that can last seven to eight years even on an uncovered patio. For homeowners and professionals alike, it is a product that delivers on its promise of lasting protection without altering the stone’s appearance.

Why TSSPro100 Stands Out

Contractors and homeowners love TSSPro100 because it combines durability with a natural finish. While some sealers form a visible film on top of the stone, TSSPro100 soaks into the stone’s surface and bonds from within. This means there’s no risk of peeling, chipping, or flaking over time. It can handle heavy foot traffic, direct sunlight, and heavy rain without losing its effectiveness.

Because it is solvent-based, TSSPro100 penetrates deeper than many water-based sealers. This deeper absorption provides a stronger defense against moisture and stains. It also helps prevent the freeze-thaw damage that can occur in colder climates when water gets into stone pores and expands as it freezes.

Another key advantage is the product’s low-maintenance nature. Once applied, you can expect years of reliable performance. When it’s time to reapply, there is no need to strip the old coating. A fresh application bonds directly to the original, saving both time and labor.

Application Tips for Best Results

Applying TSSPro100 correctly is essential for getting the maximum life and protection from the product. Here are the top guidelines from the manufacturer and professional installers:

  1. Apply only to completely dry stone.
  2. Choose a day when temperatures are between 55°F and 90°F.
  3. Clean the surface thoroughly before sealing to remove dirt, stains, and any previous residues.
  4. Apply using a brush, roller, or sprayer for even coverage.
  5. For very dense stone, one coat is often enough. If the sealer absorbs in less than a minute, apply a second coat.
  6. Allow 24 hours for curing before heavy use.

Following these steps helps ensure that the sealer bonds properly and performs at its best for many years.

Where TSSPro100 Performs Best

TSSPro100 is most effective on stones with a naturally dense composition. This includes:

  • Flagstone patios and walkways
  • Slate flooring, both indoor and outdoor
  • Travertine pool decks and courtyards
  • Outdoor kitchens built with dense stone
  • High-end stone entryways

Because it doesn’t change the appearance of the stone, TSSPro100 sealant is perfect for projects where the natural color and texture are the main visual appeal. This makes it a top choice for high-end residential builds, historic restorations, and commercial spaces where aesthetics matter as much as performance.

Contractor Feedback on TSSPro100

From a contractor’s perspective, TSSPro100 earns high marks for reliability and client satisfaction. Many report that customers appreciate how the stone still looks like stone rather than a glossy coated surface. The longevity is also a strong selling point. When a product can last nearly a decade before reapplication, it creates long-term value for the property owner.

One of the biggest endorsements comes from the fact that the manufacturer calls TSSPro100 a “banger” in their own product lineup. That level of confidence speaks volumes about its track record in the field.
