Elastomeric Waterproof Coating

Elastomeric Waterproof Coating

Waterproofing For Terrace

DECORATIVE, ELASTOMERIC, U.V RESISTANT, WATERPROOF COATING

Description

SAVE- IT 205 is a flexible, elastomeric coating based on acrylic co-polymers. Applied as a liquid, it cures to form a durable, protective, waterproof membrane. It is a single component emulsion containing inert pigments and has a brush able consistency.

SAVE- IT 205 exceeds all the requirements of a coating that resists carbonation and prevents chloride ion ingress.

Primary uses

SAVE- IT 205 is designed for the protection of concrete structures against carbonation and chloride ingress. The product is also suitable as a seamless and

elastomeric waterproofing coating for timber, asbestos / fiber cement and zinc sheets, asphalt, built-up felt and tiles.

Areas of application

·         Bridge, Roof decks, walls etc

·         Concrete repairs.

·         Commercial buildings.

·         Industrial buildings.

·         Waterproofing a variety of substrates.

Advantages

·         Easily applied by roller, brush or airless spray.

·         Flexible - capable of bridging cracks.

·         Protective - barrier against salts and atmospheric gases.

·         High-build - masking imperfections in substrates.

·         Waterproof - protects concrete from waterborne salts.

·         U.V. stable - maintains its appearance.

Directions for use

SAVE- IT 205 can be applied by brush, roller.

Surface preparation: concrete

All concrete surfaces should be treated to achieve a sound, clean surface free from laitance, oil, grease, mould release agent, residual curing compound, dust or other contaminants that could impair adhesion.

Filler/scrape coat

Surface depressions, blow holes, aggregate pop-outs etc., should be rectified with SAVE- IT 202 mixed with cement added at 250 - 400gms./Kg. The filler addition rate being dependent on surface and ambient condition. The mixed filler is tightly scraped onto the surface to be over coated, paying particular attention to ensure blemishes are filled.

Technical Data/Typical properties

Relative density: 1.25 at 25°C Application temperature: 5°C to 45°C

Elongation: >100% Colour: white.

Chemical resistance: resistant to spillage of gasoline, diesel, sewage, weak acids and alkalis

Application

SAVE- IT 205 should be applied to prepared surface in two coats, the first being allowed to dry, before the second is applied. In hot dry climates, application will be assisted by dampening brushes. Where the roof is in poor condition, or where substantial movement is expected in the roof structure, apply a sandwich system incorporating reinforcing fabric. In this application, the fabric is bedded into the wet film of the first coat of SAVE- IT 205 using a charged brush. Ensure that full contact is achieved and there is no air entrapped. Apply a second coat of SAVE- IT 205 when the first has dried, at right angles to the first.

Limitations

SAVE- IT 205 is not resistant to rain until the film has dried. This may take less than 30 minutes in hot dry climates and up to 24 hours in temperate humid conditions. Generally the product should not be applied in rain or if rain is forecast. Similarly, SAVE- IT 205 will freeze in its wet state so should not be applied to frozen substrates or when the temperature is below 5°C or likely to fall during application.
