Everbuild Aquaseal Waterproof Tanking Membrane further information
Coverage: 4-7.5 m2 per 5L depending on porosity of substrate
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
SUBSTRATE QUALITY
All surfaces must be clean, sound and dust-free.
APPLICATION METHOD / TOOLS
Prime porous and semi porous substrates with Everbuild Aquaseal Tanking Primer (where this is not available use a suitable SBR Bonding Agent, such as Everbuild 503 SBR Bond, diluted with 4 parts water) and allow to dry for one hour before applying the membrane. Apply by brush (at least 75mm / 3″ wide) in two coats which should be applied in different directions at right angles to each other to ensure full surface coverage is achieved with no weak spots. Apply the first coat horizontally and allow to dry for a minimum of 6 hours.
Then apply the second coat vertically. Pay careful attention to edges and corners to ensure that the coverage in these areas is always consistent as these are the potential weak spots where leakage could occur. We always recommend the use of Aquaseal® Tanking Tape on corners and board joints prior to applying the membrane to ensure the integrity of the watertight seal.
Aquaseal® Tanking Tape provides cross-directional movement at corners and on board joints and is available in 10 metre rolls. The Aquaseal® Tanking Drain Mat is also recommended around the drain outlet, which is the area most susceptible to leaks. As a guide the finished two-coat system, when dry, should have a minimum thickness of 1mm. Allow the second coat to dry thoroughly for up to 12 hours before tiling.
