AquaeSEAL

Description

AquaeSEAL RP Waterproof Sealant is a semi-solid, ‘ready to use’, and synthetic polymer tanking membrane that is applied by Brush, Roller or Trowel. Tiles & Tile Adhesive are fixed directly to the surface of this fast drying, resilient, & highly elastic waterproofing material. Use with AquaeSEAL JST tapes when bridging joints, to create stable & secure waterproof structures.

PRODUCT CHARACTERISTICS

• An elastic, ready to use membrane, used to protect dry building substrates under ceramic tiles, with the following characteristics:
• solvent-free • waterproof • highly elastic & flexible
• crack-bridging • permeable to diffusion • solvent free
• age-resistant • single part • dries a different colour
• Suitable for humidity load classes 0, A01 and A02 (see ZDB leaflet) and officially approved for load class A1.
• AquaeSEAL RP prevents damage in normal loaded wet areas & wet loaded walls and floor areas, functioning as a membrane for laying ceramic tiles on moisture sensitive substrates.

APPLICATIONS

• Method
  • AquaeSEAL RP can be used without being stirred, so long as it is applied using a steel smoothing trowel.
  • If applying AquaeSEAL RP with a roller, it should be stirred by using a powered mixer.
  • A second application of AquaeSEAL RP is advisable, but not essential. The installer may dictate a 2^nd. coat is required to achieve complete security, & this is possible approx. 3 – 5 hours after the initial application.
  • Floor & Wall Structures – can be used without a separate primer on concrete, scratch coat, plywood, wall linings & other commonly used materials. With plaster, or plasterboard, use a primer (such as a common PVA).
• Project Suitability
  • WET ROOM Installation, acting as a waterproof ‘tanking’ membrane, for FLOOR & WALLS
  • ALL SHOWER Installations, with a Tile finish to the walls
  • Bathrooms where the floor or wall are at a higher risk of water ingress due to splashing
  • Refurbishments & New Build Projects
