Description
Maximum color enhancement for exotic and dense natural stone. Tenax Ager Tiger is a solvent-based color enhancer and impregnating sealer engineered specifically for exotic granite and dense natural stone — materials where standard Ager may not penetrate deeply enough to achieve the full wet-look enhancement the stone is capable of. Ager Tiger delivers a deeper, richer color enhancement on hard, low-porosity exotic stones while simultaneously protecting the pores from oil and water-based stains.
Particularly effective for matching honed or sawn edges to the polished top surface of exotic granite slabs — a common fabrication application where the edge needs to be brought up to match the depth and richness of the polished face. UV resistant and non-yellowing. Indoor and outdoor use. 2-year shelf life.

Ager Tiger vs. Ager vs. Ager FS — Which to Choose
- Ager Tiger (this product) — maximum penetration for exotic granite and dense, low-porosity stone; edge-to-face matching on hard stone
- Ager — standard color-enhancing sealer for granite, marble, quartzite, limestone, travertine, and most natural stone
- Ager FS — food-safe certified; color-enhancing sealer for quartz, engineered stone, and food-contact countertop applications
Compatible Materials
- Exotic granite (primary application)
- Dense, low-porosity natural stone where standard Ager underperforms
- Honed, flamed, rough, sanded, and brushed finishes
Coverage
- Honed stone and marble: 3–20 m² (33–215 ft²) per liter
- Polished marble and granite: 4.75–30 m² (51–323 ft²) per liter
- Coverage varies with stone porosity — test on a sample area first
How to Apply
- Ensure the stone surface is clean and completely dry
- Apply undiluted using a paintbrush, cloth, fleece, or sponge applicator
- Allow the stone to absorb the product evenly
- Within a few seconds, wipe off any excess with a clean cloth to avoid sticky or glossy residue
- Avoid applying in direct sunlight
- Wait 24 hours before using the treated surface; do not walk on treated floors for 4–6 hours
- Test on a small hidden area before first use — color enhancement is permanent
Note: Ager Tiger does not prevent etching on marble. Acidic substances (wine, citrus, tomato, coffee) will etch marble regardless of sealer. For etching issues, use Tenax TeEtch Etch Remover.
