GlazeGuard International Shipping & Sealer Coverage – Mary Ann’s Story
International Shipping & Sealer Coverage - Answering GlazeGuard FAQs
When sealing large ceramic tile surfaces, planning for the right product quantity and shipping logistics is essential, especially for international projects.
In a recent FAQ session, I addressed questions from Mary Ann, a customer in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, who inquired about purchasing GlazeGuard matte finish for a 3,400-square-foot ceramic tile project.
Does CoverTec Ship GlazeGuard Internationally?
Yes, CoverTec ships GlazeGuard internationally, including destinations in Mexico.
Because GlazeGuard is a water-based, non-hazardous sealer, it is not subject to hazardous material transport restrictions. This allows it to ship easily across borders via either air freight or ocean freight.
How Much GlazeGuard Sealer Do You Need?
Whether choosing a gloss, matte, or satin finish, GlazeGuard’s coverage rate typically falls between 500 and 800 square feet per gallon.
The exact coverage within that range depends on two main factors:
- Tile Texture: Smooth tiles require less sealer, whereas textured tiles absorb more material.
- Grout Line Size: Large tiles with narrow grout lines yield higher coverage, while smaller tiles with wide or deep grout lines require more product.
Quantity Recommendation for 3,400 Square Feet
For Mary Ann’s 3,400-square-foot area, the requirement calculates to between 5 and 6 gallons. For international shipments, it is best to err on the side of caution and order 6 gallons to ensure you do not run short mid-project.
