Upon curing, it forms a thick, seamless, durable membrane thus offering ultimate waterproofing for terraces, balconies, chajja, walls and other exterior surfaces.

Features

Water proofing Waterproofing protection of up to7 bars hydrostatic pressure.
Crack bridging Unmatched crack bridging ability due to elastomeric properties.
Mechanical strength Reinforced with glass fibers for superior abrasion resistance.
Adhesion Strong adhesion to masonry substrates.

High sheen High sheen, brilliant white colour and thick coat results in high levels of heat reflectance.
Anti carbonation Reduces carbon dioxide and chloride ion diffusion thus protecting re-bars against corrosion.
Use & maintenance Single pack, easy to apply and simple re-coating.
