WATERPROOFING 790
MEGA GRIP 790 is a copolymer latex based universal coloured waterproofing brush on membrane free compound with outstanding resistance to water for the D.I.Y and the construction industry.
Purpose
MEGA GRIP 790 has been specifically designed to improve resistance to water to substrates such as: waterproofing of Parapets / waterproofing concrete (untreated) /waterproofing Plaster / waterproofing Timber / waterproofing of Water retaining structures / waterproofing of repairing weathered waterproofing systems / waterproofing of galvanized & Mild steel.
SURFACE PREPARATION
Ensure surface is structurally sound. Remove any previous coatings right back to original surface layer. Surface should be free from dirt, dust, salts, grease, oil, or any other contaminants.
WITH MOST APPLICATIONS
Do not apply if temperature is below 10 c, if humidity is high or if rain is expected. Stir MEGA GRIP 790 with a broad blade or paddle. Do not shake container. Using a medium to firm bristle quality pant brush, apply directly from container as dilution is not necessary. In hot conditions ( 40 c) use a water spray to cool surface (preferred) and allow to dry. Half load the brush to give a smoother finish and complete small areas at a time. A minimum thickness of 1.0mm (dry finish) is recommended. Apply 2 coats (minimum) for waterproofing.
Remember that water resistance increases with the amount of coats. Apply waterproofing upon substrate and apply second coat at right angles to 1st coat. Allow a 2 hour “touch dry“ gap between coats depending on weather conditions. Allow overnight drying or longer if conditions are cold, damp or humid. Do not exceed 72 hours between coats.
COVERAGE
Coverage depends on your surface. Do not exceed 1.5m per litre per coat on smooth surfaces.
SURFACE PREPERATION – FOR USE WITH WATER FEATURES AND PONDS
Ensure surface is structurally sound. Remove any previous coatings right back to the original layer. Surface should be free from dirt, dust, salts, grease, oil or other contaminants. Do not apply if temperature is below 10*c if humidity is high or if rain is expected. Ensure surface is free from any sharp edges.
APPLICATION – FOR USE WITH WATER FEATURES AND PONDS
Do not apply if temperature is below 10 c, if humidity is high or if rain is expected. Stir MEGA GRIP 790 with a broad blade or paddle. Do not shake container. Using a medium to firm bristle quality pant brush, apply directly from container as dilution is not necessary. In hot conditions ( 40 c) use a water spray to cool surface (preferred) and allow to dry. Half load the brush to give a smoother finnish and complete small areas at a time.
A minimum thickness of 1. 0mm (dry finish) is recommended. Apply 2 coats (minimum) for waterproofing. Remember that water resistance increases with the amount of coats. Apply waterproofing upon substrate and apply second coat at right angles to 1st coat. Allow a 2 hour “touch dry“ gap between coats depending on weather conditions. Allow overnight drying or longer if conditions are cold, damp or humid. Do not exceed 72 hours between coats. If covering pond allow sufficient airflow whilst drying.
APPLICATION – FILLING THE POND OR WATER FEATURE
Allow at least 7 days drying time before allowing water to come in contact with the coating. Allow longer drying times in cold, damp or humid conditions. After 7 days of drying, mix a small amount of dishwashing liquid with clean water in a bucket and sponge surface with soapy water to remove any residue. Rinse pond thoroughly with fresh, clean water, removing all traces of the detergent. Fill pond with clean water and leave for 1 to 2 days. Empty pond and refill with clean water again.
COVERAGE
Coverage depends on your surface. Do not exceed 1.5m per litre per coat on smooth surfaces.
CLEAN UP
Clean all equipment promptly with water and a medium to stiff bristle brush. Use methylene chloride if product has dried or hardened. Rinse thoroughly with fresh water. Please dispose of any waste materials responsibly.
warning
Do not ingest. If ingested, do not induce vomiting – Seek medical attention immediately!
