Instructions for Use
Surface for Use
Check that gutters are in good working order, that walls and floor meeting cornersides are rounded, and verify minimum slopes of 1.5%.
Application should be performed on a strong stable concrete (that was casted minimum 30 days before application) or other substrates such as: metal, pvc and old acrylic/polyurethane coatings.
Remove intensively all loose particles). Rinse intensively the roof/deck to remove mud and wait until completely dry. Apply 250 gr/m² of AQUAPOXY over the roof/deck surfaces.
Drying time: 12 hours.
Performing of the Sealing System
- Apply grey AQUATECH in quantity of 1.0 kg/m² along the walls and floor meeting corners, gutters, pipe penetration and along cracks (in 15 cm strips). Impregnation of a polyester net strip into the fresh AQUATECH, along the cornersides and cracks, should be considered in appropriate substrates.
- Apply a first layer of grey AQUATECH over the surfaces by spray or brush, in a quantity of 900 gr/m². Letting to dry for 2-3 hours.
- Apply a second layer of white AQUATECH in a quantity of 900 gr/m².
- In large roofs/decks (more than 500 m²) it is recommended to apply a third layer of white AQUATECH, in a quantity of 900 gr/m², within 15-18 hours after the application of the second layer.
Drying Time
To touch: 2-3 hours (at 25°C and 50% humidity).
Final drying time: 14 days.
Storage
In the shade, protected against frost and high temperatures (5°C – 35°C).
