Oh how I wish I'd done a search on the forums before using this stuff. I put this stuff on an Indian Stone roof terrace laid on top of my carport/garage. Anyway I hadn't finished the guttering at the front of the carport, so the when it rained the water just ran off the roof. I parked my car just under the carport the other week, only to get up next morning and find the whole of the front of the car covered in a milky white stuff that couldn't be removed. I had to get the whole front of the car resprayed; luckily it's only an old BMW estate , but still cost me 250 pounds for the respray. I thought this stuff was meant to waterproof and seal the stone, not leach out as soon as it rains. Just what does this stuff actually do? Avoid like the plague!
