Application
SUBSTRATE QUALITY
The substrate must be sound, clean, dry, ‘matt damp’, free from all surface contaminants.
SUBSTRATE PREPARATION
All loose particles, release agents, laitance, paint, rust and other poorly adhering materials must be removed by suitable hand or mechanical preparation.
Surfaces which are excessively rough tend to leak later on. We recommend smoothing of freshly placed concrete with a batten where the sealing profile is to be placed.
