ROCATEX Waterproof Tanking Coat is a rapid drying, highly flexible, one part solvent free liquid rubber membrane based on an advanced durable synthetic latex polymer system with excellent waterproofing properties. It has been developed for application to a broad range of construction substrates prior to tiling. Once cured the membrane remains elastic and forms a seamless barrier to water.
Main application areas are internal and external walls and floors where water protection is required including showers, wetrooms, bathrooms, steam rooms, balconies and terraces.

Walls: 1kg/m2 at a minimum thickness of 1mm
Floors: 1.5kg/m2 at a minimum thickness of 1.5mm
Joints: Approximately 300g/m
Surfaces to be sealed must be sound, dry and clean, free from dust and grease or any contaminants which may affect adhesion of the coating. Any weakness in the substrate should be properly prepared and cured before application commences. Any dusty surfaces should be vacuumed and greasy / oily substrates should be degreased.
Waterproof tile backer boards, such as ROCATEX Rocaboards, provide an ideal substrate for all tiling projects subject to moisture and water. ROCATEX Rocaboards also offer excellent thermal insulation properties and can be used in conjunction with underfloor heating.
The surface should be roughened up using a wire brush or other abrasive tool as this will remove the surface laitance. Although not essential, a primer coat can be applied to enhance adhesion. Mix 1 part ROCATEX Waterproof Tanking Coat with 1 part clean water and allow to dry. New plaster should be fully dry which can take approximately 6 weeks.
Skimming is not required. Ensure boards are dry, securely fixed and rigid.
The surface should be prepared to provide a rigid and secure base without deflection. The reverse and edges of the boards must be primed with ROCATEX Acrylic Primer diluted 1:1 with clean water, to prevent the ingress of ambient moisture.
When ready to apply, stir the mixture in the bucket before you use. DO NOT THIN.
To be used in conjunction with ROCATEX Waterproof Sealing Tapes, Corners & Pipe Collars – please refer to separate technical data sheets.
Apply first coat of ROCATEX Waterproof Tanking Coat and whilst still wet firmly press in the sealing tape / corners / pipe collars. Ensure there is an overlap of at least 50mm. Once dry (approximately 15 minutes) a second coat should be applied. Ensure that the tape is fully covered with ROCATEX Waterproof Tanking Coat. Tiling can commence once the second coat has fully cured, approximately 1 hour at 20°C.
Tools can be cleaned in water while the product is wet. Scrape off any excess prior to immersing in water.
Not for use in swimming pools or areas where water may apply pressure. Not designed for use in outdoor exposed conditions. The coating is not UV resistant.
Store unopened in a cool dry, frost free environment and away from direct sunlight.

BTP very helpful in supplying a pallet of floor leveller. I needed it on the Saturday, but didn’t want it sitting on the driveway for several days. I called and they recommended ordering for Thursday to give a day’s grace in case of any delivery issues. In the event the pallet arrived on Thursday as requested. Reliable and good value
Great service and delivery! Ordered all that I needed in one go and it was delivered to the back door wrapped and protected from the snow! Pallet even made it so that the goods were dry off the ground.
Great prices and a super quick delivery turnaround. Communication was perfect aswell. So much so I’ve ordered again.
