Available in 5kg or 20kg tubs, in multiple colours.
WHERE TO USE
For waterproofing and protecting: · flat roofs; · paving slabs; · cupolas and curved roofs. Once the substrate has been Aquaflex Roof may be used on: · ceramic and stone; · cementitious screeds and screeds made from special binders (Topcem and Topcem Pronto); · concrete; · old bituminous membranes; · wooden trimmings; · galvanized sheet, copper, aluminium, steel and iron.
TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS
Aquaflex Roof is a ready-to-use coloured waterproofing product for external applications made from synthetic resins in water dispersion, and when dry forms a continuous, flexible, waterproofing membrane. Aquaflex Roof is resistant to all atmospheric conditions and UV rays, and guarantees long-lasting protection for the substrate. Aquaflex Roof is easy to apply using a long-piled roller, brush or spray on horizontal, sloping and vertical surfaces. Once dry, Aquaflex Roof forms a strong, flexible, tack-free coating, suitable for occasional light foot traffic. Due to its flexibility, Aquaflex Roof is compatible with normal dynamic expansion and contraction stresses caused by temperature variations and vibrations. Aquaflex Roof complies with the principles defined in EN 1504-9 (“Products and systems for protecting and repairing concrete structures: definitions, requirements, quality control and conformity assessment. General principles for the use of products and systems”) and the requirements of EN 1504-2 coating (C) according to principles PI, MC, RC and IR (“Concrete surface protection systems”).
RECOMMENDATIONS
· Do not use Aquaflex Roof if the temperature is lower than +5°C or higher than +35°C, or if it is about to rain.
· Do not apply if there is dew on the substrate.
· Do not apply Aquaflex Roof on wet substrate or on substrates with rising damp.
· Apply Aquaflex Roof on surfaces without depressions or hollows and, where required, with the correct amount of slope.
· Do not apply Aquaflex Roof on weak or dusty substrates.
· Do not apply Aquaflex Roof on painted metal surfaces.
· If it rains between one coat and another of Aquaflex Roof, wait at least 12 hours before applying the next coat, and always until there is no residual moisture; adhesion between the two coats could be affected.
· Do not use on bituminous membranes that have only recently been applied (< 6 months). Always wait until the surface to be treated has completely oxidised.
