Application

Specifically designed for a range of vertical and horizontal surfaces:

  • Applied to walls, floors or soffits;
  • As a retro applied gas proof membrane to concrete, masonry and brick substrates;
  • As an alternative to sheet membranes in new construction.

Description

A single component water based compound, formulated on styrene-butadiene co-polymer. The product offers a high performance elastomeric liquid rubber membrane which only requires mixing to provide a waterproof and gas proof, liquid applied, methane and carbon dioxide barrier.

  • Excellent adhesion, fully bonds to porous and nonporous substrates.
  • Rapid drying.
  • Can be applied to damp and ‘green’ substrates.
  • Flexible and non-toxic when cured.
  • Can withstand temporary light trafficking.
  • Easily repaired by locally over-coating.
  • Can be painted, plastered or screeded over.
  • Subject to normal conditions of use, the product will last the lifetime of the structure.
