DESCRIPTION
A two part acrylic polymer modified highly flexible cementitious waterproof membrane supplied in pre-packaged form for the protection of concrete and mortar.ABAFLEX-FCW provides excellent adhesion, flexibility, crack bridging ability, and durability.
APPLICATION
Saturate the concrete’s surface with clean water. Apply the first coat while the surface is still damp but no free standing water. Apply using a short stiff bristle brush, rubber squeegee or roller at a rate of 1-2 mm. for walls and floors, depending on the expected water pressure. The required thickness is achieved by applying 2 layers, taking care that each layer is not thicker than 1mm. Leave the first coat to dry for 2-4 hours before applying the second coat. The second coat can be rubbed down with a soft dry sponge. Spray or trowel application is acceptable providing the mixing ratio is adjusted to achieve the right consistency. Leave the second coat of ABAFLEX-FCW to cure overnight before proceeding to conduct water ponding test.
